Buying a used 2022 Ford Bronco? Check these 23 recalls first

23 NHTSA recalls · 374 owner complaints on file

Ten recalls apply, five critical — including steering that can lock up while driving and two separate defects allowing rollaway from Park. Engine block heater and engine wiring fire recalls also apply, along with windshields that may come loose. That last one stands out: visibility/wiper is the single largest complaint area, 65 of 374 unverified NHTSA reports. Brakes drew 42. Across those complaints owners reported 6 crashes, 2 fires and 4 injuries.

Before you buy

  1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
  2. Confirm the steering lock-up and rollaway-from-Park recalls have been performed
  3. Inspect the windshield seal and ask if it was ever replaced or resealed
  4. Test the brakes on a drive, given 42 unverified brake complaints for this year
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
