Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2021 F.
The 2021 Ford F-750, built on the 750 chassis, recorded 937 total owner complaints—a figure that dwarfs the model’s historical annual complaint counts from 2004 to 2022, which peaked at just 3 in 2017 and bottomed at 1 in 2009. Its top complaint area is the Power Train, and the model year carries 28 recalls, placing the 2021 F-750 as a significant outlier in the model’s reliability history.

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.
The generation-spanning federal record shows a flat, near-zero complaint profile—never exceeding three annual complaints and registering just one in 2021—punctuated by intermittent recall spikes, most notably three recalls in both 2011 and 2021, while TSB activity crested at 15 in 2011 and 13 in 2021 before collapsing to one in 2022. Within this arc, 2021 sits at a second service-peak, matching the generation’s highest recall count and its second-highest TSB volume, though like every year in the dataset it shows zero federal investigations. Drilling into 2021 specifically, Power Train accounts for the largest share of reported complaint areas at 210, followed by Exterior Lighting at 79, Visibility at 64, and Unknown or Other at 54, with 13 crash-related and 4 fire-related complaints also recorded; the data does not specify underlying causes. Relative to the closest recorded years—2018 with one recall and eight TSBs, and 2022 with two recalls and one TSB—the 2021 model stands out as an outlier for manufacturer-directed service volume. Because this elevated recall and TSB activity appears isolated to the 2021 model year and drops off immediately in 2022, prospective buyers should prioritize documented completion of all three recalls and associated service bulletins; if maintenance records confirm that work, this is a structurally acceptable year to buy.
