FORD BRONCO DO NOT DRIVE RECALL
In June 2026, Ford issued a serious safety recall affecting certain 2021–2026 Ford Bronco Sport models due to a problem with the front suspension ball joints. The issue was significant enough that Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) advised some owners to stop driving their vehicles immediately until repairs were completed. The recall centers on the front lower control arm ball joints, which may not be fully secured to the steering knuckle. If it separates, the control arm can disconnect, which may lead to sudden loss of steering control and increased crash risk.
