NHTSA recall campaign
24V778000
What was wrong
Defect
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2024 Maverick vehicles. 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."
Risk
A child seat that is not secured properly increases the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
Dealers will repair the tether anchorage points, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 4, 2024. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 24C33.
