Known issues for this generation

NHTSA recall 24V-635 (Ford campaign 24S55) covers 2021-2022 F-150 trucks equipped with the 2.7L or 3.0L Nano EcoBoost V6, built within a production spike period of May 2021 to October 2021; the engine intake valves may break while driving, which can result in engine failure and a loss of drive power. NHTSA's engineering analysis (EA23-002) found that fractured valves showed "grinding burn" or out-of-specification hardness at the keeper grooves, leaving them hard and brittle, and that the same defect spans the 2.7L and 3.0L Nano engine families across several Ford and Lincoln nameplates, not the F-150 specifically. Ford's remedy is a free engine cycle test with engine replacement as necessary; Ford changed the intake valve alloy from Silchrome Lite to Silchrome 1, and vehicles produced after October 2021 are not affected. This recall does not apply to the separately tracked F-150 Lightning EV, which does not use the Nano EcoBoost engine.
