Defect

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2025 Ranger and Bronco vehicles. The bolts that secure the driver's seat frame to the body may be loose or missing. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 207, "Seating Systems."

Consequence

A seat with loose or missing fasteners may not properly restrain an occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Corrective action
