The BIGGEST Truck Recalls Of 2023!

[@sorenmelchior]

Part of the problem with all these recalls here in Alaska is we have very limited number of dealerships in the state. So these dealerships book up months out doing recall and warranty work... which makes for long waits for the customer. I myself am dealing with this as my 2020 2 door Jeep Rubicon was in for 3.5 months for a clutch recall in winter of 2021-2022, and currently it's in for engine issues since May 23rd of this year. And because of the backlog scheduling took the dealership 4 months to finally determine I need to replace the engine, and now they are awaiting a 45 day minimum backlog of 3.6 Penastar orders to get me a rebuilt engine to replace it (not a newly manufactured one). So yeah with insurance paying close to $1100/month for a vehicle I cannot drive is really turning me off on all these manufactures at present. We need simpler vehicles, as the complexity is causing more problems and issues. Now if only Suzuki would bring in the Jimney's to North America we could have a simple easy to work on 4x4 without all the complexities inherent to the current batch of crap these auto makers are putting out. Short Edit: Oh.. and I am driving a rusty 40 year old 1983 Toyota SR5 pickup (pre Tacoma truck) while I wait for the fancy expensive POS to get fixed.

One thing I really wish more manufacturers would adopt is the combination gauge cluster, with analog gauges on the outside and a configurable digital screen in the center; it worked great in the Ram I had, and I hate that the all-digital gauges in my current Ford keep changing size and position, and could go blank while I’m in the middle of a road trip.

[@erics8696]

Nissan Frontier has that

[@AussieDazza]

I am an Aussie and I own ( bought new ) a Japanese built 2006 Nissan Patrol TD42TI, one of the most reliable 4WD vehicles ever built. Even that has had one recall and that was for the Takata airbag . Never had a mechanical failure, nothing has gone wrong with it.

[@dlg5485]

I'm feeling pretty good about my decision to buy a 2023 Frontier Pro4x this summer. So far it has been a great little truck. My only complaint is that it sometimes downshifts a lot on the slightest inclines when cruising on the highway. Ironically, stupid shifting behavior was one of the things I hated most about the Tacoma TRD Offroad I had before. However, the Frontier shifts FAR better and smoother than the Taco did, it just downshifts more often than it needs to, which wastes fuel.

Hey guys, love the show you guys are very knowledgeable. Keep up the good work! I have a 2022 jeep gladiator Rubicon eco-diesel. I have a recall for the CP 4 pump. My truck is starting to hesitate going up hills. No dealership here in Las Vegas or any elsewhere can get their hands on a CP 4 pump I know three people that have turned their diesels gladiators in because they are not able to drive them. What do you think.? What happens if I stall out on train tracks and I have it documented that they cannot get parts for my recall! Lol?

[@jeff0nyschuk670]

Yep!! After you buy it they want it back for recalls after recalls..Ford better ideas!!

here of late, it seems ford is TRYING to save money by making their PAYING CUSTOMERS their new testing division, to find the problems ford is too cheap to find thru in house testing.perhaps fords customers should be on the picket lines too.

[@stefanfalldorf6573]

I know at least two vehicles that never had a recall: the Trabant 601 and the Wartburg 353.

[@keithkuckler2551]

I love my 2014 Fi50, XLT four wheel drive with the Coyote. It has just enough electronics to make it practical, backup camera, bluetooth, and, a small screen. But, it is a perfect truck, no turbo with the Coyote, and it still gets decent mileage. It is dependable here in north east Minnesota, we got over a hundred inches of snow at my house last winter. I would not trade it for a new one today. It only has 85k on it, and, I am going to just fix it and, keep driving as long as I can. Not a spot of rust either despite our salty winter roads. You can have those expensive new ones with the host of problems they have.

[@davidlusk4350]

Ford has Issued 31 recalls according to jalopnik. 26 with dodge, then BMW. So it's across the board, but clearly one is leading the list.

Working for one of the three lettered agencies, we bought a large fleet of F-250's in 2020. More than 70% of them had catastrophic engine failure.

What was the first automotive recall in history? What was it all about?

[@TREVORJB101]

I wonder why RAM can't keep the monster V8, while adding a V6 to the line, like Ford does.

[@mattisaac2217]

totally agree with you andre I drive a class 8 semi for a large pop company (pepsi) we've had it on our semi for the last 5+ years I had a instance were the truck starting braking with nobody around or in front of me coming up on a bridge shadow with no warning

[@mikefoehr235]

Braking on its own...very scary

[@crbourret]

Same thing happened to me hauling doubles on the Mass Turnpike, truck came to a complete stop! Turned out a yaw sensor had failed and the truck thought it was having a roll over event so it locked up all the brakes for no reason, thankfully it was during an overnight trip to our hub and there weren't other cars behind or around me.

[@benjaminwayneb]

Toyota has seven recalls involving the 2022 or 2023 Tundra model, so far.

[@Robert-ex2qp]

Keep trucks regular gauges. Review a contractors truck who put it through its paces that's 5 years old or more. We have a car with a gauge screen that blacks out.

[@jacobmoll2878]

Already watched the cheap Toyota just before this ha ha love it Love the cheap series and the shows about personal vehicles

[@robertpulliam9973]

Having worked as the captive mechanic on an assembly line at a GM plant, namely the rack and pinion assembly line, if a problem develops the line supervisor is notified, he makes the decision whether to stop the line and fix the problem or let it run until the problem can be fixed which means a later recall with the dealer can fix it. The assembly lines must continue to run even if it means fixing it later after the customer buys it.

[@davidlusk4350]

Perhaps they should correct the error from the start. Just costs more on the back end to repair and or paynfor loaner vehicles.

[@dlg5485]

Maximum production over safety and quality, that's the whole problem.

[@PKDesigns2011]

and that is the issue, things must go on ... even if the poor sap paying tons of $$$ suffers for it ...

[@twinchantillytiffanysbenny8852]

The recall on the Kia Hyundai tow hitch wiring problem is big. I literally saw a Kia Telluride brand with no license plates on it catch fire, and it burned to the ground!

[@Pokebattleleague]

I can confirm as a mechanic new cars are full of cheaper parts and in fact have more issues

[@clarencedobbs7362]

Love the show full of knowledge Thanks.

[@MickeyAlbano6111]

I am perplexed. the 2003 Silverado was built to be a rust bucket. That said the break lines rot out constantly. The worst park is if either a front or rear brake line brakes you lose all braking except the emergency brake. Why oh why is this not a safety recall?

[@RichtrucktionTv]

You gotta stop cutting Nathan off bro 😕

[@StacyFsahkmetez-xm3lj]

Well speaking of recalls doesn't ram trucks have there recalls as well I herd something about catching on fire or whatever I mean every auto maker has a recall not just Ford!! Even kia and Hyundai have recalls where there ignitions or whatever can be easy to start with a USB! Talk about ram and these other automaker as well!!!!

[@rafdecc]

Pay $85 or $100,000 for a truck and I have to go back and spend all that time and grief I mean what are we talking about here this is this is insanity Insanity I got a 95 Ford 350 dually crew cab that I restored only because I couldn't afford nor did I want to be bothered with all the electronic bulshit that goes on that's they are all go out of business or go out of business it's proof that AI does not work they can't drive the vehicles it doesn't fly to airplanes doesn't drive the trucks are general aviation pilot used to do aerobatics in a pits was a hand-built pitts, 3x across the country on a Harley Harley is doing the same thing putting out s***putting the customer fix it they are all deserve to go out of business for their lack of follow-up and delivering a product

[@briannikolic8401]

Yes, I can tell you for a fact that air tools in assembly of vehicles are extinct. All the "guns" or tools are electric or even battery powered. They are linked to "the screen" computer, which counts how many fasteners have been applied, if they were low or high torqued or even cross threaded. If one of these events happens, the operator must "release with concern" on the screen. And just in case you were wondering, if it isn't released, the line stops.

[@ezekielochieng8941]

I have a 2021 Honda civic and I’ve experienced issues with its Honda Sense system where in some cases it gets confused with traffic signals even when it’s green on main roads and it would activate the emergency braking system. Thankfully it didn’t break. Or if I sometimes use the brake hold button, it would suddenly disable all the safety features so I’d have to park my car at a safe spot. Turin off then turn it back on to reset the bugs. Might have to visit a dealership for software update

[@mattsedgwick3082]

Amen to this I don’t trust glass cockpits there’s no rendunancy we had an incident down here in south Florida where a 39 ft contender center console crashed killing its operator and injuring two others only because the electronics failed and it hooked right going full speed with quad 450r’s it had a full glass cockpit

Just got the first OTA updates ever on my 2023 F350 and 2022 Expedition. The update notes were regarding enable future ota updates. Looks like Ford may be trying the Tesla ota recall fix approach

[@mikeadamson4605]

While it's true that the failing electronics come from a third party, the manufacters are choosing them as the supplier. The failure rate of a suppliers part needs to be evaluated to determine if it's time to find a new supplier. So the manufacturers do have some degree of culpability.

[@pementerprises7706]

I have a tundra with the weight label and fuel line recalls. Checked the fuel line which is stated to leak near the rear right tire and it is still in place. The weight label on the vehicle states 27 lbs added when it should say 20.3 lbs.

[@hondofourfivetwo9347]

There’s serious Recalls and minor TSB’s social media doesn’t differentiate between the two then there’s stuff the technicians and or the customers see and is an issue but the manufacturers still won’t recognize it. What’s really concerning in certain cases in the past certain manufacturers have done the math and decided it’s cheaper to ignore an issue for now keep their fingers crossed and either fix it after most of the vehicles are already off the road due to age or settle any possible lawsuits that result from it rather than fixing the problem right away

[@lance_r72]

How long do manufacturers support recalls? Is it only for new models or could be older models?

[@lordcorgi6481]

A lot of people take recalls the wrong way. Ford in 2022 had the most recalls. A lot of people will say that means they make junk. I take it as they're willing to fix their mistakes. I look at GM, and they almost refuse to do a recall on anything unless forced to do something. The new Corvette is a great example of GM and denying recalls. There was a class action lawsuit against GM for the rims. If you take a stock Corvette to the track and drive it like it's supposed to be driven the cast rims will crack and fracture and your tire will go flying off. They went to court and GM's defense was that the rims weren't defective, they just put the wrong rims on the vehicle. The judge agreed and GM has to do nothing about it. To this day if you buy a Corvette it comes with cast rims, when they should be forged to withstand the rigors of the track.

If ford made quality vehicles they would do alot better job at testing the vehicles making sure they are made well without 15 recalls.
