Ford is one of the more popular brands of vehicles in Texas and the company this week announced a big recall impacting many drivers in Texas and throughout the United States.

Ford Motor Company has issued recalls this week over a potentially dangerous situation. According to a press release from Ford, the auto company is recalling 272,827 Ford Broncos and Mavericks due to a power problem.

According to Ford Motor Company, the problem is related to a 12 volt battery made by Camel Battery of China that has "internal manufacturing defects" that could lead to a vehicle to stop unexpectedly or fail to start.

According to the AP, the vehicles were made between 2021 and 2023. There have been no reports of accidents or fires.

The vehicles were made between February 2021 and October 2023, when Ford stopped using those specific batteries. The defects are thought to affect only 1% of the vehicles equipped with the batteries.

Ford pledged in November to review and improve its recall decision-making process and to submit to monitoring by an independent third party that will oversee its recall performance for three years after the U.S. government fine it for moving too slowly on an earlier recall.
