What's wrong, in plain English
Certain 2024 Ford Bronco Sport vehicles have body and powertrain control modules that may fail to detect a change in the 12-volt battery's state of charge. If the modules do not notice that the battery charge has dropped, the vehicle may lose electrical accessories, such as the hazard lights, or it may lose the power needed to keep driving.

3. The repair is free; if your vehicle was already fixed under recall 24V-267 for this same problem, it will need this new update as well.
