Ford Recalls 163,256 Bronco SUVs for Loose Seat Bolts That Could Fail in Crash
Ford recalls 163,000 Broncos over loose seat bolt injury risk.
Ford is recalling 163,256 Bronco SUVs model years 2021 through 2023. A loose bolt in the front seats might cause the seat to dislodge.
"The front seats may have a loose or dislodged seat frame height-adjust pivot bolt," the company shared in the recall. "A seat with a dislodged bolt may not properly restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury."
Dealers will replace the faulty parts without charging the owners.
Letters are heading out to owners soon. These notices will explain what steps to take and how to book a service visit.
