Known issues on the 2008 F-350. Seven recalls sit on the federal record for this year. One concerns trucks that failed the federal fuel spillage requirement, another driver seats whose side pivot bracket could crack or break in a crash, and a third a driver air bag module that may not have been assembled properly and could fail to deploy as intended.
