- The defect
- Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2025 Bronco four-door vehicles. The left-hand rear door may be able to be opened from inside the vehicle when the child safety lock is in the "ON" position.
- What it can cause
- A malfunctioning child safety lock that allows a rear door to be opened unintentionally can increase the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace the rear door latch, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 27, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S64.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 27,768 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 86% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2025, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2025, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Ford vehicles have been recalled over the latches/locks/linkages 28 times before this, most recently in May 2025 as 25V303000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 49 complaints with NHTSA.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 18 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V468000 (engine), 26V403000 (structure), 26V343000 (engine and engine cooling), 26V268000 (seats).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Ford Motor Company with NHTSA on June 13, 2025 as campaign 25V397000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
