Summary
Some 2024 Bronco vehicles equipped with a factory hard top build on 07-Feb-20204 and through 13-Feb-2024 may have a hard top rear cap that is difficult to remove. This may be due to a temporary production change to the bolts that were used to retain the rear cap to the body. These unique bolts have a yellow nylon locking material on the bolt threads that cannot be cleaned off. To correct this condition, replace all hard top rear cap to body bolts with the correct catalog replacements.
