Ford Recalls 450,000 Compact SUVs and Pickup Trucks over Battery Issue

In the United States, Ford has announced a recall of over 450,000 compact SUVs and pickup trucks due to a potential battery issue that could lead to a loss of drive power. This recall affects Ford Bronco Sport SUVs made between 2021 to 2024 and Ford Maverick pickups made between 2022 to 2023, totaling 456,565 units.

Ford expressed their commitment to customer safety and satisfaction by stating that safety is a top priority and they are taking proactive measures to address the issue promptly and effectively. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) issued an alert regarding the recall, explaining that an undetected low battery charge could lead to a loss of electrical accessories like hazard lights or drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.

Affected owners can visit a Ford dealership to have the problem fixed for free by recalibrating the body control module and power train control modules. Alternatively, customers can utilize Ford’s mobile service and pick-up and delivery options for a fix. Ford plans to mail notification letters to owners by May 13 and can be contacted at 1-866-436-7332. The recall number is 24S24.
