What Happened
The fender flares on your Bronco are the plastic pieces that cover the fenders and protect them from damage. In some 2022-2026 models, these flares aren't attached correctly and could come loose while driving.
Risk if Unfixed
If your fender flare detaches on the road, it could become a hazard and increase the risk of a crash. This is especially concerning because it could happen at any time, and you might not notice it until it's too late.
Free Fix
Your Ford dealer will inspect and fix or replace your fender flares at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice – it's free, and it's an important safety measure to take.
