Plain-English summary

Ford Motor Company is recalling certain 2021-2024 Bronco Sport and 2022-2023 Maverick vehicles. The body control module and power train control module in these vehicles may fail to detect changes in the 12-volt battery state of charge.

If the modules do not detect a low battery charge, the vehicle may lose electrical accessories such as hazard lights, or lose drive power entirely. Loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.

Owners of affected vehicles should contact their Ford dealer to schedule a free recalibration of the body control module and power train control module. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 4, 2024. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
