2019 FORD F-350 — Complaint #2017852
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about TIRES:VALVE filed August 20, 2024
NHTSA complaint #2017852 (ODI reference 11609667) concerns a 2019 FORD F-350 and was filed on August 20, 2024. The owner reports the failure occurred on December 11, 2019. The vehicle had 25,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Tennessee based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as tires:valve, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same FORD F-350 cohort independently describe similar tires:valve failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2019 FORD F-350 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-350.

The low tire pressure warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was driven to a dealer but not diagnosed; however, the contact was informed that the dealer would replace the current tires with new tires to monitor the failure. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The contact was constantly adding air to the tires before driving the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 25,000.
