Not sure about the part number, but tell me there’s a story behind needing to replace it..

I think someone has pulled it a bit too hard and the switch has come off of the assembly

At the Bronco Off-Rodeo, they specifically mentioned that quite a few people pulled this off. It is crazy to me, because it is a simple, easy, one finger lever that does the job, but people pull on it like it's a cable brake.

I actually did that at the off-roadeo!!!

Its an obvious design flaw because I did not pull it very hard and it just snapped out of the slot it’s held in. The Off-Roadeo guys acted like they’ve seen this issue before which makes me thing it’s a design flaw that ford didn’t go back and correct.

I heard the same thing at my Off Rodeo event in New Hampshire. The vehicle I had was e-brake less for that reason. I bet it's a mistake people only make once!

Some people can’t have anything nice.

Haha… Best thing I’ve seen all day.

Granted it’s 8:30 in the morning and the only thing I’ve done so far is sit on the toilet.

But it’s still the best thing I’ve seen all day.

That would bite if on an off-road trip and needing to use the e-brake. As someone who tends to use the e-brake a lot with manual transmissions, I'll miss being able to totally control e-brake function on the Bronco.

I wish it was a mechanical hydraulic hand brake instead of electronic.

IF...... there was a Manual Hand Leaver E-Brake system that had a Long & Proven reliability that they (@Ford Motor Company ) could have used...... .... this would have been a Non-Issue.

Why?

I mean, it is a non-issue unless you lack a basic level of competence.

Honestly, it doesn't get much easier than pulling the lever and pushing the button with the same level of force you use on your turn signal, GOAT dial, seat adjustments, or basically any other function in the car.

It is basic, day 1 shit that literally any child could figure out.

Yea! But how else am I supposed to make sweet handbrake turns - I know it's what the ladies love, why else get MGV interior!?!?
