In June 2022, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) started a detailed investigation concerning the Ford Bronco. The investigation, prompted by three petitions submitted in March of that year, focused on alleged valve defects found in select Bronco models. However, recent developments have taken this investigation to a more significant level as the NHTSA has now broadened its scrutiny to encompass not only the Ford Bronco but also over 700,000 Ford and Lincoln vehicles.
