What owners reported
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseOwners of the 1 model year this bulletin names have filed 378 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 108 of them name Fuel/Propulsion System, Power Train — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
On the 2022 Ford Bronco, the 18 owners who gave an odometer reading for Fuel/Propulsion System reported it at a median of 34,000 miles. That figure is one model year’s, not the whole range this bulletin covers — medians from different model years are not averaged.
Bronco base had no option for tow package but for $195 option 66C is a factory install auxiliary switches. Switch 1 is wired to 30 amps or 360 watts @12 v. This option has 2 parts. The second parts are not attached.
