Ford Motor Co. is recalling 272,827 Broncos and Mavericks due to a power problem that can cause vehicles to stop unexpectedly ...
The latest Ford recall covers certain Bronco and Maverick models that may be affected by sudden battery failure.
The vehicles were made between February 2021 and October 2022, when Ford stopped using those specific batteries.
A manufacturing defect in the vehicles' 12-volt batteries can cause them to stall at low speeds, or not restart after stopping. The automaker will fix the flaw for free.
Officials said the 12-volt batteries may have internal issues that can cause them to fail unexpectedly while driving.
