“The dashboard and screen when black while I was driving down the highway. I was unable yo see my speed. I found a safe spot to pull the car over to see what was going on and the car would not start again. After jumping the car it still would not start then it had to be towed to ford where they still can’t figure out was wrong.”
NHTSA complaint #11626688, filed 2024-11“My 2023 Ford Bronco Sport has an open safety recall (25S76) for a cracked fuel injector that may cause a fire risk. The manufacturer has issued the recall but does not yet have a permanent repair available. I am concerned about the safety risk and lack of remedy”
NHTSA complaint #11722963, filed 2026-03“We were driving on the highway with no other cars around when the sunroof exploded. My wife was driving and she panicked, slowing down on the highway trying to get off the road. The shade was closed, but if it wasn’t the glass would have fallen on my 1 year old baby who was in a rear center car seat. There was no indication that something hit the sunroof. Ford refused to acknowledge that it could be a manufacturer defect and will not consider covering the repair.”
NHTSA complaint #11700342, filed 2025-11“The floor board is missing underneath the driver's side. I can see what looks like gears. Not quite sure. Difficulty with braking. Hard to stop. I hear flapping noises coming from rear of vehicle when driving. Not quite if it's the suspension”
NHTSA complaint #11550311, filed 2023-10“I had parked and turned off my Bronco after a 2 hour drive. When I went back outside about 30 minutes later, I started the vehicle only to get an ear piercing noise coming out of the speakers. I turned off the radio and car but it lasted about 30 seconds and then stopped. Twice again I tried to start the car and the loud noise started again and lasted 30-45 seconds. My Apple Watch registered a noise at 110 decibels. I could not stay in the car as it hurt my ears. No warning lights or anything to let me know this was going to happen. …”
