SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:UPPER BALL JOINT
What Happened
The upper ball joint is a crucial part of your vehicle's suspension, connecting the control arm to the steering knuckle. In some 2024 Rangers and 2024-2025 Broncos, the nut that holds it in place might not be tightened correctly.
Risk if Unfixed
If the ball joint comes loose, your vehicle's steering and control could fail, making it harder to steer and increasing the risk of a serious crash.
Free Fix
Your Ford dealer will check the ball joint and make sure it's tightened properly. If it's loose or missing, they'll replace it with a new one, free of charge. You should schedule this repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
