2025 Ford F-150 Lightning

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2025 F-150 Lightning.

Engine Electric

The 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning continues the nameplate’s all-electric truck offering, built on a dedicated EV architecture. Early reliability data for this model year shows a modest six owner complaints, with service brakes emerging as the most reported area, alongside three recalls. This limited initial feedback places the 2025 Lightning at a point where its long-term dependability is still taking shape, giving researchers a snapshot of early ownership experiences rather than a fully established track record.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

Owner complaints about the 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning top in one area — the service brakes, 1 of 6 reports (17%), well ahead of the next concern. NHTSA has issued no recalls for this vehicle, so these are owner-reported concerns only. 2 of the reports describe a crash and 1 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the service brakes pattern above. These are tallies of what owners actually reported to the federal government, not an editorial score — and higher-selling models naturally rack up more reports.
