NHTSA summary

On January 31, 2024, The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened a Preliminary Evaluation (PE24002) to investigate loss of motive power allegations in model year (MY) 2021 Ford Bronco Sport vehicles.

Additionally, Ford removed the existing 12V Enhanced Flooded Battery (EFB) as both a service component for the subject vehicles and original equipment for newly built Bronco Sport vehicles (during MY 2024 production), replacing it with a more robust absorbed glass mat (AGM) battery.

“Vehicle failed to start due to a faulty wiring harness connecting the 12v battery to a component of the engine. This left me stranded with no warning, and I was unable to jump the vehicle through normal means. This is a known issue with the 2022 Ford Mavericks, as demonstrated by Ford's TSB 22-2340, and according to Ford, does not fall under their hybrid warranty.”

I was able to drive it to the dealership the next day, no problem, It's at the dealership right now. I haven't heard anything yet.”

If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
