I purchased a 2022 Ford F150 in September 2024. I began to notice occasional sluggishness when accelerating as the weather warmed up around March 2025. I contacted my local Ford dealership sharing the issue. The service manager suggested I consistently use a high octane fuel, which I consistently do, explaining I may just have "bad gas". The problem continued primarily when I was in heavy traffic with high temperatures. The truck acted as if it had a clogged fuel injector, sluggishness from start, low idle reducing below 1,000 RPM. I contacted a privately owned mechanic shop advising of my idle issues. The mechanic stated he doesn't believe a fuel injector would clog at 50,000 miles. In June 2025 received notification of a recall for my vehicle which I confirmed by VIN. The recall (#25V455) summarized the vehicle could sustain a loss of fuel pressure and flow from the fuel tank due to fuel pump failure. The letter continued, I may experience poor engine performance, rough idle or reduction in power, the same issues I had been complaining about. I contacted the Ford dealership and they explained Ford had not determined how to remedy the problem. Fast forwarding to present, 3 August 2026, over a year since the recall letter and Ford has yet to remedy the problem. What's the hold up? Will Ford finally determine the remedy when my family is killed on the interstate because the vehicles fuel pump fails and it stalls? It appears to be apparent Ford does not want to take the financial hit of such a recall. This is unacceptable and needs to be looked into by the NTSB.

Misfire or rough idle by model year
What owners say
The contact owns a 2022 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was a misfire coming from the engine. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or a dealer. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 24V455000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the part for the recall repair was unavailable. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 34,000.
A few weeks ago, while driving the vehicle, it displayed an engine misfire warning had extreme vibrations, and then the vehicle broke down, left me sitting on the side of the road. After getting the vehicle towed to a Ford dealership, we found the intake valve broke off on the motor and causes catastrophic complete engine failure. This is an active recall in 21 and 2022 F1 50s with the 2.7 eco-boost. Per Ford my Vin is not attached to that recall and they said I had to call or get a hold of the national highway safety administration and get my Vin attached that recall for engine replacement. My vehicle is a 2022 with 100,000 miles on it and now it’s broke down because the engine had catastrophic engine failure due to a problem. Ford knows about this issue and won’t fix it until I get the vehicles then attached to the recall . The current recall number is 24S55 Thank you
We were told, our truck had a loss of fuel pressure and flow from the fuel tank due to fuel pump failure. This can cause a lack of fuel delivery to the engine and result in an engine stall while driving. That’s what happened to us. Prior to fuel pump failure, we experienced poor engine performance (misfiring or running rough), a check engine light, and a reduction in engine power. The engine stalled while driving on the highway and increased the risk of a crash being stuck on the side of the road up a hill like we were. I was reaching out to see if we are able to get a refund.
There are several issues with the truck, the worst being misfire issues while driving at highway speeds. Several times now I have been on the interstate at speeds and the truck will all of a sudden lose speed and shutter. The engine light will blink, and this will happen for a couple miles and then it goes back to normal. If you pull the codes on the truck, you get P0300, P0301, and P0305. This is in the dealership again now. The previous two times the dealership has done nothing because they can not duplicate the issue, but they do pull the codes.
