2024 Ford F-450 Super Duty

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2024 F-450 Super Duty.

The 2024 Ford F-450 Super Duty enters the dataset as a lightly reported but not issue-free model year, logging seven owner complaints and three recalls. Its most common complaint area is vehicle speed control and forward collision avoidance, which accounts for the top concern among owners so far. Set against the model’s 2009–2014 complaint history—where annual totals ranged from a low of one complaint in 2010 to a high of two in 2011—the 2024 tally of seven is higher than any year in that span, suggesting the early record remains modest overall but is no longer the near-zero-volume pattern seen in the older data.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

From 2009 to 2014 the F‑450 Super Duty showed a steady recall count of three per year through 2013, dropping to one recall in 2014, while complaint numbers remained low (0‑2) and no investigations or TSBs were recorded. This indicates a declining recall trend and minimal consumer complaints over that span. The 2024 model year is not covered by the supplied federal record, so no recall, complaint, investigation, or TSB figures are available for direct comparison. The 2024 data that are provided show zero crash‑related complaints, two fire‑related complaints, and the leading complaint areas are Vehicle Speed Control/Forward Collision Avoidance (3 reports), Seats (1), Engine/Fuel/Propulsion System (1), and Electrical System (1). Because the data do not specify recall volumes or root causes for the fire complaints, a prudent buyer should verify the vehicle’s service history and any outstanding recalls before purchase.
