Ford recalls 179,000 Bronco, Ranger vehicles over seat defect risk

Financial influencer Taylor Price joins ‘Varney & Co.’ to break down how shifting your mindset can help Americans grow wealth and achieve the American Dream.

Ford is recalling more than 179,000 vehicles due to a defect with the front seat frame that could increase a person’s risk of injury in a crash, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

According to the report, the recall affects 62,255 2024–2026 Ford Bronco SUVs and 117,443 2024-2026 Ford Ranger pickup trucks.

The defect stems from a pivot bolt in the front seats that can become loose or dislodged. The administration’s report states that if the bolt is knocked out of place, the seat may not properly restrain a passenger, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.

The NHTSA report does not indicate any injuries or incidents tied to the issue and does not provide additional details on how the defect was identified.

The recall affects widely driven Ford models, meaning thousands of drivers could be behind the wheel of vehicles with a potential safety issue tied to passenger restraint in a crash.

A representative for Ford did not immediately respond to FOX Business’ request for comment.

Ford dealers are instructed to inspect and replace the pivot links and bolts as necessary, free of charge, as a temporary fix, according to the NHTSA report.

Owners of the affected vehicles will be receiving letters informing them of the recall by May 11. An additional letter is expected to be sent to car owners regarding a more permanent remedy in July 2026.

This recall follows a prior recall of more than 140,000 Ranger trucks in the U.S. after federal safety regulators warned a wiring issue could elevate the risk of fire last week.

The NHTSA explained in its report the issue is linked to a wiring issue with the sun visor that could be routed incorrectly or wrapped with too much tape.

Further questions can be directed to Ford’s Customer Service Department using the phone number 1-866-436-7332 and then using the recall number 26S30.

The minestrone was sold in Whole Foods in Alabama, Connecticut, Washington, D.C., Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Mississippi, North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia.

Question-and-Answer Session

Brian Abrahams
RBC Capital Markets, Research Division

Thanks for being here. So maybe let’s start a little bit bigger picture on your lead program, Bexdeg. Tell us what your latest view is on the potential advantages that BTK degraders can have in the CLL space relative to the currently available inhibitors, what’s out there today? And what’s been your view as to the strongest preclinical and clinical evidence and data to date that’s really helped support that? And I know the data is continuing to evolve. So I would love to hear your latest views on that.

Arthur Sands
CEO, President & Director

Yes, excellent question. The advantage of targeted protein degrader in this space in CLL and in BTK, we’re seeing advantages expand and grow. So I can tell you where we started and now where we think it is, which is quite exciting.

So we started with the concept that by removing the protein, we could address certain BTK inhibitor resistance mutations, which were just emerging, if you go back to the beginning of, let’s say, 2020, 2019. So the concept that by degrading the protein through the ubiquitous proteasome system, we could address this emerging problem

James Rules Out Rebuild, Demands Championship Contention in Year 24

LOS ANGELES — LeBron James has made it clear that he will only consider teams positioned for immediate championship contention as he prepares for his 24th NBA season, ruling out any involvement in rebuilding projects.

The 41-year-old superstar, who turns 42 in December, has not yet made a final decision on his future but is expected to inform the Los Angeles Lakers of his plans before the NBA Draft in late June. James exercised his $52.6 million player option for the 2025-26 season and will enter unrestricted free agency this summer.

Multiple sources confirm James is prioritizing winning above all else. He has shown no interest in joining franchises focused on long-term rebuilding, emphasizing his desire to compete for a fifth NBA title.

James has won four championships with three different teams — two with the Miami Heat (2012, 2013), one with the Cleveland Cavaliers (2016), and one with the Lakers (2020). He remains highly productive, averaging 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 7.2 assists per game in the 2025-26 season.

The Lakers are considered strong contenders to retain him, especially with Luka Doncic already on the roster. However, James has not committed to any specific outcome. His agent, Rich Paul of Klutch Sports, has remained silent on the matter.

James has a history of deliberate free agency decisions. He is unlikely to accept the veteran minimum but may take less than the maximum to help a contender build a stronger roster around him.

The Lakers hold Bird Rights and have significant cap flexibility. Their ability to surround James and Doncic with complementary talent will be a major factor in his decision.

James has spent the past six seasons with the Lakers after previous stints with the Cavaliers and Heat. His longevity continues to impress, as he ranks among the league’s top performers despite his age.

No official announcement has been made. James has focused on family and business interests while evaluating his options for the upcoming season.

The upcoming NBA Draft and free agency period will be pivotal. Several contending teams are monitoring the situation, though James has shown loyalty to the Lakers while keeping his options open.

James has not publicly commented on specific teams or contract details since the end of the 2025-26 season. His emphasis on championship contention remains the central theme of his decision-making process.

Walmart executives depart under CEO John Furner

Two top Walmart executives are departing the company, nearly four months after CEO John Furner took over, CNBC learned on Friday.

Tom Ward, the chief operating officer of Walmart’s warehouse Sam’s Club, is retiring, while Cedric Clark, Walmart’s executive vice president of U.S. store operations, is leaving the business, internal memos viewed by CNBC shows.

A replacement for Clark is expected to be announced in the “coming weeks,” the memo stated. It’s unclear when the company expects to fill Ward’s position.

The leadership shuffle comes after Furner took over as Walmart’s CEO in February. Alongside Furner’s promotion, the company elevated four new top executives to work alongside him earlier this year. Seth Dallaire was promoted to chief growth officer, overseeing the company’s marketplace and advertising businesses, David Guggina was elevated to CEO of Walmart U.S., Chris Nicholas became CEO of Walmart International and Latriece Watkins became CEO of Sam’s Club.

Furner took over the largest U.S. retailer during a period of sustained growth, fueled by gains with higher-income consumers and the expansion of its e-commerce business.

Walmart announced fiscal first-quarter earnings on Thursday, where it issued mixed results and said its business remained strong despite consumer pressures and high gas prices.

The leadership changes were first reported by the Wall Street Journal.
