I am the homeowner and the mother of the vehicle owner, [XXX]. I am submitting this statement about a fire involving her parked Ford Bronco in my garage.

At approximately 8:30 p.m. on XXX, I had just gotten out of my backyard pool when I heard a loud thump that seemed to come from around the garage. After entering the house, I heard another loud sound. When I opened the door between the house and garage, smoke came into the house. I called [XXX]. [XXX] texted me at 8:34 pm as she received a text notification that her tire pressure was low and asked me to check. I went outside through the front door to the driveway and opened the garage

My 2024 Ford Bronco repeatedly loses power without warning while driving, including on highways, suddenly slowing to approximately 32 mph. It also fails to accelerate from traffic lights, leaving me stranded in traffic.

The broken bracket was verified by the Ford Dealer on my vehicle and is awaiting a repair. If this failure had occurred during highway speed the left front drive axel would have been placed in a bind and steering could have been lost. A roll over accident could have occurred as a result. Note: I did own a 2022 model of the same type that developed the same sound, Ford dealer verified the sound but did not find the source. The TSB 25-2613 had not been released at that time 9/2025. The 2022 was traded in and has now been resold

The component in question is the MIC Hardtop roof of my 2024 Bronco Raptor. It would seem that there is a current delamination on the roof, similarly to what was recalled on the 21-22 models, for the process and equipment parameter showing clear issues to the current bubbling, cracks and separation from the underlaying layer of the roof.
