NHTSA recall 24V778000
Child Seat · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: The second-row child seat tether anchors may not properly secure a child seat, due to incomplete thread engagement. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 225, "child restraint anchorage systems."
Why it matters: A child seat that is not secured properly increases the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will repair the tether anchorage points, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 4, 2024.
