Questions to ask the seller

Questions worth asking the seller of this Ford before you buy, drawn from its public record:

  1. Owners of this model report steering problems more than anything else (owners tend to report it near 39k miles). Has this car shown any steering symptoms, and are there repair records for it?
  2. Owners of this model report suspension problems more than anything else (owners tend to report it near 38k miles). Has this car shown any suspension symptoms, and are there repair records for it?
  3. Has this car been in any accident or had any structural, airbag, or flood-related repair? Do you have a clean title and a recent history report (Carfax / AutoCheck)?
  4. How many owners has it had, do you have the maintenance records, and why are you selling it?
  5. Are you open to me having an independent mechanic inspect it before we settle on a price?

The fine print: this verdict is computed from public NHTSA complaint and recall records for the 2015 Ford F-250 Supercab as a model, not for any individual car. A well-maintained example of an “Avoid” can outlast a neglected “Buy”. Informational only, so always get a professional pre-purchase inspection.
