## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2021\-2022 Bronco vehicles. The 3\-door and 5\-door Molded\-In\-Color \(MIC\) hardtop roof panels may have been manufactured improperly, which can allow sections of the outer roof panel to separate and detach from the vehicle.


## What can happen

A detached section of roof can create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will inspect and replace the hard top as necessary, free of charge. Interim letters, notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed May 28, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once the remedy is available, anticipated in November 2026. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 26S32. Vehicle Identification Numbers \(VINs\) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov on May 12, 2026.
