Bronco recall

[ssray]

Just caught a bit on the news about a recall. Didn't get all of it but it something to do with ball joints. Just a heads up for you Gen 6 owners.

A small group f Broncos and Mavericks I think. Something in the front end was reworked it sounds like. Thanks for watching out for us!

I saw that but I think it was for the Bronco Sport and Mavericks 25-26. As luck would have it, I bought my wife a '25 Sport a few weeks ago.

My '24 has two outstanding recalls to be repaired.

1) A software upgrade is needed for the center video screen.
2) Bolts that hold the front seat backs in place could fail prematurely in a collision.

My local dealer has recently offered to schedule a mobile mechanic out to my house to fix these.

They ended up pushing my software update remotely. I just had an oil change last Friday and no open recalls on mine.

No notice for me. 25 Stroppe.

Bronco Sports and Mavericks only

I think they pushed mine remotely too. Got in it the other day and when I started it, a message popped up that said "software upgrade complete" or something like that.

Taking my 2025 Maverick in today. Recall letter has big red notice, "do not drive". Called dealer and they said to bring it in. I said I was told not to drive, and he said it shows that I have been driving it already so go ahead and drive it in. ???

That's because the Dealership can sign in with your Vin# and the truck will report to them.

Recalls aren't just a Bronco thing....

Stellantis recalls more than 1 million Jeeps in U.S. that could catch fire even when turned off, feds say​

I have the Ford App on my phone and it says there are no active recalls for our Bronco Sport, so I guess I'm OK?

Wonder if you can ask them to use the Focus RS long block (guess heads as well) for that extra cooling passage). Forgetting for a sec the 345 hp.

I miss my RS. Heh.
