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.
