Ford Recall 26S30 -- Loose Front Seat Bolts in 2024-2026 Bronco

Thanks. Now I need to figure out how to sufficiently raise the battery SOC!

FYI, the notification describes the update as:

"We've updated some of the parameters within your vehicle's Powertrain Control Module to support HVAC improvements."

Interesting.. I don’t understand why that would be a PCM update and not an HVAC module update, but who knows

I don't know about current systems, but on a lot of vehicles I worked on when I was younger, the engine rpm was raised and the coolant fan(s) kicked on anytime the air conditioning compressor was running, perhaps that is controlled by the PCM in these for that reason?

Most folks have reported no issues ... Hope you are lucky as well. I've got a travel heavy month, so I'm waiting to go in for service and thenr call check in July.

Was lucky indeed- no issues with mine….

Yeah it could have something to do with the fans I suppose since they’re PCM controlled, but those already automatically come on when A/C is requested so I’m not sure what they would change there.
But either way, we will never know since Ford’s update notes are so generically awful lol

Over the weekend my 22 Badlands was pushed the PCM update, and then the following day I had HVAC 22.AA.AC prompt me for install. Sounds like you’re right on it being both PVM and HVAC modules, and they had to stage the updates

I'm at the 12K mile mark and not due for an oil change for another 3,000 miles or so. Given that I've been driving my other two cars more during the nice weather, I probably won't be needing an oil change until Sept/October at the earliest. Since I haven't noticed any movement or issues with my seats, I'll wait until then to have them inspect them, especially since most seem to pass.

I have some road trips planned this month, next month and the end of August, and I'd like to have my Bronco for those trips. Last thing I want is for it to be sitting in a dealer lot for a couple months while they're waiting for parts.
