2000 FORD F-350 — Complaint #2148187
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS filed November 13, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2148187 (ODI reference 11699088) concerns a 2000 FORD F-350 and was filed on November 13, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on September 18, 2025. The report was geocoded to Georgia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as tires:pressure monitoring and regulating systems, 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:pressure monitoring and regulating systems 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 2000 FORD F-350 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.

Three days later, while traveling northbound on [XXX] near Memphis, Tennessee, the RV suffered a sudden tire blowout at highway speed. We narrowly avoided a collision while maneuvering to the shoulder. Thankfully, no one was injured, but the incident was extremely dangerous and could easily have resulted in fatalities. Cruise America knowingly rented out a vehicle with an active tire pressure warning covered and concealed, depriving the driver of critical safety information. The company did not repair or document the issue, instead instructing renters to âign
