Yes, the Bronco instrument cluster is the worst of all current Fords. It just plain sucks.

The part number is N2DZ-7804338-BA is the part number. Sit down when they quote the price, it’s over $1K!!! I’m sticking with my original for that.

4 Auto keeps the front axle engaged so only the transfer case clutch has to engage when slip is detected. Lower fuel economy comes from spinning all the front drive components.

Love my Bronco but the dealership I work for is a servicing dealer fo Ford GTs. I do pickup and delivery of them in our enclosed trailer, and road test them if needed for diagnosis and repair verification. Driving one of those can get you aroused if you’re a car guy.

There is a bulletin about moisture getting in the connection to the sway bar unit. Easy fix.

Anything less than 5 years will rarely be totaled for a frame. It’s not really a big deal changing one, a good tech can do it in a day and a half. ANY damage, even minor damage to frame will result in a new frame being added to the estimate.

Take the nut off, clean the paint off the bolt threads, reinstall nut. Problem solved.

I have experienced it on a couple of occasions, it takes a downpour that forces you to slow down to 30 to 40 MPH and driving in traffic. It isn’t actually water buildup on the sensors themselves, but just too much water in the air for them to see through it. It’s the same affect that heavy...

The heavy rain obstructs the radar sensor behind the bumper and the sonar sensors in both bumpers. It can also obstruct the forward facing camera at the top of the windshield. The warnings should go away after the rain subsides, or possibly after a key cycle.

They won’t want it.

First trip out last summer in Colorado.

All cars with Auto Start/Stop come with AGM batteries.

There is a really good chance that the battery was low when you took delivery. Modern cars will start with a battery that is pretty low on charge. If it isn’t FULLY charged back up you will fight this problem for a while. Go get an AGM safe battery maintainer and leave it on overnight for a...

Only really old alignment equipment clamps on the rim. Any machine built in the last 20 years or so are clamped on with hooks that engage the tire tread.

There is a TSB addressing front pinion seal leakage for units built prior to July 9, 2023. It calls for a new seal and different oil to fix the problem.

Yes, axles come into the assembly plant pre-built. Assembly plants don’t put together any powertrain assemblies.

I wasn’t intending to start an argument, just trying to dispel the belief that many hold that the manufacturer does everything they can not to honor their warranty to “save a few dollars “. Not being able to replicate a concern so it can be effectively diagnosed is different from trying to...

If it fits doesn’t mean it will work with the forward facing camera mounted on the top center of the windshield. Some aftermarket (cheap) glass doesn’t have that correct contours and will cause the camera to look upward, downward, or to one side. The camera can’t be calibrated in that case...

Yep, forgot about that one, most states are the same. If a car is in the shop for an extended time below 30 days, Ford will often offer to make a payment as a compensation for the time out of the car.

In the same situation where a spare was provided that didn’t match the other tires, Ford would have paid the claim also. If the spare didn’t come with the car, but came from somewhere else, or if the original wheels and tires on the car had been changed out for a different size from original...
