Ford Motor is recalling 272,817 vehicles in the United States on concerns over battery failure, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Thursday. The recall affects certain 2021-2023 Bronco Sport and 2022-2023 Maverick vehicles.

Ford Motor Co. is recalling more than 270,000 Broncos and Mavericks due to a power problem that can cause vehicles to stop unexpectedly or fail to start. Information from the National Highway and Transportation Safety Administration says the problem is related to a 12 volt battery with “internal manufacturing defects” including weld failures that can cause open circuits.
