The presence of "f:Red" indicates that a character tag named Red has been applied; the fact that the text is in fact black suggests that the character tag in the chapter is defined with black text colour, in spite of its name. The same character tag in the TOC may be defined as you would expect with red text colour, thus producing red text only in the TOC. I'd take a look at the character tag definitions in the offending chapters, and do as Art suggests in reapplying default para font to the problem headings.
