This is part of the normal material break-in process for the removable roof panels. This break-in process can be accelerated through exposure to heat over time such as leaving the vehicle parked in direct sunlight on warm days. To dissipate the odor, instruct customers to use air conditioning with the recirculate function off and/or open the side windows to vent the interior cabin.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11020890-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11020890-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/11020890","components":[{"id":"structure-body","name":"Body and frame","parent":null},{"id":"visibility","name":"Glass, wipers and mirrors","parent":null},{"id":"wiper","name":"Wipers and washers","parent":"visibility"}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"FORD","model":"BRONCO","year_from":2024,"year_to":2025,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2024_ford_bronco","2025_ford_bronco"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
