Bronco Sport 2021 Hermosillo December 9, 2020 through December 9, 2020

 

 

REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL

In some of the affected vehicles, an incorrect lower control arm may have been installed at the assembly plant. A vehicle equipped with the incorrect lower control arm may experience a vehicle stability concern that may increase the risk of rollover at max roof load.

 

SERVICE ACTION

Before demonstrating or delivering any new in-stock vehicles involved in this recall, dealers are to inspect vehicle for the correct control arm part number (LH and RH). Any incorrect front lower control arm will be replaced, and the front suspension will be aligned. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.

 

OWNER NOTIFICATION AND MAILING SCHEDULE

Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of April 5, 2021. Dealers should repair any affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter.

 

SOLD VEHICLES

  • Ford has not issued instructions to stop selling/delivering or driving used vehicles under this safety recall. Owners should contact their dealer for an appointment to have their vehicles remedied as soon as practicable. Owners can continue to safely drive their vehicles if they do not place any equipment, luggage or load on the roof until after this safety recall is performed.
  • Immediately contact any of your affected customers whose vehicles are not on your VIN list but are identified in OASIS. Give the customer a copy of the Owner Notification Letter (when available) and schedule a service date.
  • Correct other affected vehicles identified in OASIS which are brought to your dealership.
  • Dealers are to prioritize repairs of customer vehicles over repairs of new and used vehicle inventory.

 

STOCK VEHICLES

  • Correct all affected units in your new vehicle inventory before delivery.
  • Use OASIS to identify any affected vehicles in your used vehicle inventory.
