Ford Recalls 150,000 Broncos Because Part of the Rear Suspension Can Fall Off
The problem only affects the Badlands trim and SUVs with the Sasquatch Package, and Ford doesn't know how to fix it yet.
The problem only affects the Badlands trim and SUVs equipped with the Sasquatch Package, but the Blue Oval hasn’t figured out how to fix it yet. Ford told the NHTSA that “the long-flange rear shock absorbers in affected vehicles may experience corrosion between the external reservoir, the mounting flange, and the damper body, resulting in separation of the external reservoir.” If you’re driving, signs that a remote reservoir is about to fall off include a bouncy ride, an unusual noise, and a leak near the rear wheels. Ford will begin reaching out to owners of recalled SUVs by mail (the old-school kind you get in a mailbox) on February 3, but there’s a big catch: the company doesn’t know how it will fix the problem yet.
