At a glance
- Next to other model years
- Complaints filed before 2015 aren't in the files this site reads, so the 2015 count runs short and isn't compared with the model years next to it.
- Top problem
- Two problems run close. Suspension has 124 complaints and death wobble has 113, out of 296 in all. A quarter of the 73 owners who gave a mileage for suspension saw it by about 53,000 miles, and half by about 83,000.
- Crash, fire and injury reports
- 13 of the 296 complaints (4%) report a crash, a fire or an injury, a little under the 6% typical of vehicles on this site. Counted separately (one report can carry more than one), 8 reports mention a crash, 6 mention a fire and 7 people were hurt.
- Recalls behind the top problems
- Death wobble has a recall on the same system (20E-090). Suspension and wheels have none. A recall on the same system doesn't always cover the failure owners describe, so compare its summary with the complaints.
- When owners filed
- Filings peaked in 2021 at 43 (full calendar years only). In 2025 there were 27. So far in 2026, 4 more have come in. Filings on record start in 2015.

How this compares
296 complaints is about the median for a 2015 model on this site and about the median for a 2015 pickup. Among the 9 F-250 Super Duty model years here it ranks 4th for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.
