2023 Ford Bronco Sport fuel/propulsion system problems

“I am filing a safety complaint regarding my 2023 Ford Bronco Sport Big Bend (VIN: [XXX]) and unresolved safety recall 25S76 / NHTSA 25V467, involving a potential fuel injector crack and risk of an under-hood fire. I attempted to have this issue addressed at Covert Ford in 2025. As of XXX, the recall remains unresolved, and FordPass indicates that replacement parts are unavailable. My vehicle is currently at Leif Johnson Ford in [XXX]. I have also previously noticed a gasoline odor, although the cause has not been determined. I depend on this vehicle for daily transportation and long-distance travel. I am extremely concerned that Ford continues to leave me exposed to a known potential fire hazard without a completed remedy. This prolonged situation has caused significant and unnecessary stress. I am requesting an investigation into the continued lack of a recall remedy, written confirmation of whether my vehicle is safe to drive long distances, and appropriate transportation assistance, including a comparable loaner with unlimited mileage at no cost until the recall is resolved. Thank you.”

“I am filing a complaint because Recall 25V467 was issued one year ago to this month and Ford has still not provided the necessary repair or part and keeps saying they don't have a remedy.”

“Manufacturer Recall Number25S76 NHTSA Recall Number25V467 This was issued one year ago in July 2025 and Ford is still saying there is no remedy. We have two of these Broncos - one for each daughter - and they've been driving these with a safety recall for over a year now.”

“We were driving in the middle of nowhere between [XXX] and [XXX] and the fuel system shut down cuz the fuel pump failed with a quarter of a tank left. We are stuck on the side of a narrow highway where the speed limit was 80 mph. Very scary. Every time we tried to start the car it would sputter and fail and the fuel warning came up not for lack of fuel but for a fuel pump issue. Software update was done the day before OTA. According to recall issues, fuel pump, cracks and failures have occurred many times and there are several recalls on that, but apparently our VIN is not included.”

“This vehicle has been in multiple times for major repairs and is currently in for transmission replacement and coolant replacements. Both of these have already had parts replaced. The recall on my car has been on it for a year and has yet to be addressed. I was told that my car started smoking while in ford possession and attempting repairs. When I questioned the recall I was told it wasn’t a big deal and that it was just a system thing and not a danger. This does not seem to be the case. The vehicle has had issues since 15000 miles and has been repaired 4 times but officially broke down at 96000 miles in less than 3 years.”

“The affected component is the fuel injector system covered under Ford’s safety recall. According to the recall notice, a fuel injector may crack and allow fuel and/or fuel vapors to accumulate on top of the engine, creating a risk of fire if exposed to hot engine or exhaust components. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The safety risk is significant because the defect involves the potential for an under-hood fire while driving or while the vehicle is parked after operation. I use this vehicle as my primary means of transportation and have concerns about my safety and the safety of passengers due to the possibility of a fire occurring before a repair is available. The issue has been confirmed by Ford through its issuance of the safety recall. I have contacted Ford and dealership service departments regarding the recall. However, I have been informed that repair parts are not yet available, leaving the vehicle unrepaired despite the acknowledged safety defect. The vehicle has been inspected by authorized Ford dealerships in connection with related concerns. I have also communicated directly with Ford regarding the recall and the lack of an…”
