Ford Motor Co. is recalling 229,609 model year 2025 and 2026 Ford Bronco and Bronco Sport vehicles due to a malfunction in the instrument panel cluster.
This defect could prevent the display of critical information such as warning lights and vehicle speed, posing an increased risk of a crash.
The recall notice was issued Nov. 14 by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The issue involves the instrument panel cluster, which may not function properly at startup, potentially leading to a failure in displaying essential driving information.
“An instrument panel display that does not show critical information, such as warning lights or vehicle speed, increases the risk of a crash,” the Ford recall notice says..
