2023—2024 Ford Bronco® Hard Tops — Poor Rear Quarter Glass Panel Adhesion Recall

Electronic key fob for a Ford vehicle

Recall Reference Number: 24S10

Building vehicles you can count on is our most important job, which is why Ford issued a safety recall for some 2023-2024 Bronco® SUVs. The Ford Bronco Heritage® Edition is not affected.

A routine inspection revealed some of the adhesive used to adhere the left and right rear quarter glass panels to the roof was not properly applied. This could cause the glass panels to separate and leak, and possibly detach.

As soon as parts become available, customers will be notified for service.

For your convenience, a Mobile Service technician may be available to inspect and service your SUV where you are. You can book an appointment online, in your FordPass® App, or contact your local Ford Dealer.

Keeping drivers and passengers safe is our number one priority. For questions or concerns about the 2023-2024 Bronco Hard Tops Safety Recall 24S10, please call us at 1-866-436-7332. A Ford Recall team member will be happy to assist you.

As always, thank you for being a Ford Owner.
