Manufacturer summary

Original wording in English

Some 2023 Escape/Corsair vehicles built on 6-Apr-2023 and through 11-May-2023 and 2023 Bronco Sport/Maverick vehicles built on 30-Jan-2023 and through 6-Jun-2023 may exhibit an illuminated air bag warning indicator with DTC B0082:1A stored in the restraints control module (RCM). This may be due to an issue with the passenger seatbelt retractor at connector C303B. If a connection issue is found, replace the passenger front seatbelt retractor and pretensioner assembly before attempting a wiring repair. This issue does not affect the proper operation of the air bags, retractor and pretensioner. Refer to the Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 501-20A Seatbelt Systems > Removal and Installation. For claiming, use causal part 78611B08 and applicable labor times in Section 12 of the Service Labor Time Standards (SLTS) Manual.

Repeated filings are grouped only when make, bulletin number, publication date and complete summary agree. Original record numbers are retained. Older publications remain available, and an explicit later version is shown when established. Pre-1994 vehicle associations are separated from default results; an unspecified year does not mean all model years apply.
