2019 FORD F-250 — Complaint #2105238
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:BODY CONTROL MODULE/BCM filed June 30, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2105238 (ODI reference 11670185) concerns a 2019 FORD F-250 and was filed on June 30, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on June 30, 2025. The vehicle had 75,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Texas based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electrical system:body control module/bcm, 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-250 cohort independently describe similar electrical system:body control module/bcm 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-250 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-250. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, all doors independently locked, and the front headlights independently illuminated. The contact stated that the Brake warning light was illuminated. In addition, the contact disconnected the battery and lowered the windows to open the doors from outside as a temporary fix; however, the key was only able to unlock the front driverâs side door. The vehicle was taken to a local independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed with water intrusion in the BCM (Body Control Module). The local dealer was contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired due to the cost. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 75,000.
