NHTSA Service Bulletin 10207124: 2022 Ford F-250 Sd
Official manufacturer communication context for 2022 Ford F-250 Sd, with affected products, buyer checks and links into Carchieve recall, problem and VIN research.
Reviewed June 2026 from NHTSA manufacturer communication and service bulletin records. Carchieve is independent and not affiliated with any vehicle manufacturer or government agency.
Some 2022 F-250 Super Duty 4x4 vehicles equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine, 10R140 transmission, and 160 inch wheelbase may exhibit a momentary, slight grinding-type noise immediately following a 4-3 downshift while coasting without the brakes applied. This condition does not affect vehicle durability. Replacement of the transmission or other components will not resolve this condition and engineering is currently working on a solution which is expected to be available by July 2022. Let the customer know they can continue to drive the vehicle and schedule a follow-up appointment for July 2022. Monitor OASIS for updates and confirm that the service appointment is going forward once the repair becomes available.

Before you buy, compare this communication with official recall campaigns, model-level owner complaint patterns, and the exact vehicle’s VIN-decoded specifications. A bulletin can help you ask a seller or dealer sharper questions about software updates, known repairs, warranty extensions and service history.
