The failure pattern owners describe

Owners describe multiple fuel and fuel-related system failures on the 2022 F-350 and F-350 SD. High-pressure fuel pump and rail failures occur around 61,000–140,000 miles, causing loss of power during acceleration, stalling, and check engine lights. One owner's CP4 pump failed at 90,000 miles with abnormal engine noise; another experienced low-pressure fuel rail codes and oil leaking from fuel injector O-rings at 61,000 miles. Uncontrolled acceleration and idle surges have also been reported—including one crash when the truck accelerated while stopped at a traffic light—traced to electrical and Body Control Module throttle control faults that dealers cannot consistently reproduce.

Fuel line damage from rodent chewing at just 3,167 miles caused gasoline to spray from the tank vent and nearby lines, with one vehicle cleared as a fire hazard by the fire department. Owners paid out of pocket to replace fuel lines and tanks, with the manufacturer offering no assistance or warranty coverage.

Owners have also received multiple recall notices (Campaigns 25V455000, 25V686000, 24V957000, and others) but dealers report parts remain unavailable months after notification. Some owners expressed safety concerns about driving recalled vehicles pending repairs, and at least one request for rental or buyback assistance was denied. One complaint's VIN was not included in the recall despite matching the described failure.

Recalls/TSBs owners mention: Campaign 25V455000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); one owner's VIN not included in recall. Manufacturer referred multiple owners to NHTSA Hotline. Warranty did not cover repair in at least one case.

Low-pressure fuel system leaks from fuel injector O-rings

Oil leaking from O-rings at fuel injector locations, linked to defective low-pressure fuel pump. Occurred concurrently with low-pressure fuel rail code detection.

When: 61,000 miles

Symptoms owners cite: Oil leaking from fuel injector O-ring areas; Abnormal popping sound from vehicle; Check engine warning light

Codes mentioned: Low-pressure fuel rail defect code

Repairs/costs cited: Dealer diagnosed defective low-pressure fuel pump; vehicle not repaired and remained at dealer.

Recalls/TSBs owners mention: Campaign 25V455000; owner's VIN not included in recall.

Fuel line damage from rodent chewing

Uncontrolled acceleration and idle RPM surge

RPMs rising to redline at startup without driver input, followed by vehicle lunging forward when shifted into Drive. Occurs intermittently and cannot be reproduced for dealer diagnosis. Linked to electrical system and Body Control Module throttle control failures in one complaint.

When: 7,420 to 72,000 miles

Symptoms owners cite: RPM surge to redline at startup with brake pedal depressed; Vehicle lunges forward unexpectedly; Uncontrolled acceleration while stopped at traffic signal; Accelerator pedal fails to respond when applied

Codes mentioned: Body Control Module throttle control codes, Ignition cylinder codes, ABS fault codes, Electrical system failure codes
