Ford Loss of Drive Power Recall Affects Thousands of WA Vehicles

Ford Motor Company has issued a recall for 450K vehicles over what is called a loss of drive power.

  The recall involves Ford Broncos and Maverick trucks

Ford has recalled the following vehicles, according to CNN Business:

"The models affected include Ford Bronco Sport SUVs made between 2021 to 2024 and the Ford Maverick pickups made between 2022 to 2023, specifically totaling 456,565 units."

The National Highway Traffic Safety Commission (NHTSA) says the vehicles could be victim to an undetected low battery charge, which could result in a loss of "electrical accessories" or even drive power while moving, which could greatly increase the chances of a crash.
