They are documented: NHTSA holds 90 owner complaints naming the fuel system on this model year (25% of everything owners filed about it), and 6 recalls, 1 NHTSA investigation are filed under the same heading. Whether it is a problem on one particular car is a diagnosis, not a count, and a count says nothing about how many were sold.

When do fuel system problems show up on the 2022 Ford Bronco Sport?

Owners who gave an odometer reading reported it at a median of 46,000 miles; half of them between 20,000 and 58,000. That is when reports cluster, not the life of a part.

What does NHTSA's "Fuel/Propulsion System" heading cover?

Fuel tanks, lines, pumps and injection — and on an EV, the propulsion battery and motors. Owners choose the heading when they file, so it says which area of the vehicle the complaint is about, not which part failed.
