There are 2 owner-reported lighting complaints for the 2023 Ford F-350in NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
This is a 2023 Ford F350 XLT vehicle. The low beam headlights do not put out sufficient light and are dangerous. I visited with the Ford dealership in Sunrise, Florida called Sawgrass Ford who told me that the previous owner changed the light source out to an LED light in an effort to gain more light. We both agreed that this did not help. In my research online it appears that this problem is limited to the XLT model. Apparently the Lariat, King Ranch, etc models have different headlights. There does not appear to be a recall on these headlights. I contacted Ford directly who advised me to go to a different dealer which won't help unless these are changed out. The vehicle currently has less than 35000 miles and is still under warranty.
The contact owns a 2023 Ford F-350. The contact stated while operating the vehicle at night, the low-beam headlights failed to illuminate more than two feet ahead of the front of the vehicle, creating a visibility hazard for the driver. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 18,000.
