I have a 2021 subject to the engine recall that just turned 30,000 mi on the odo. No change in MPG has been seen though real world MPG #’s compared with the dash readings have always been 4-5% lower

You would have hated living and owning a car back in the 1970’s when a car’s life span was 100,000 miles and a new vehicle warranty was 12 mo/12,000 miles (but back then cars were so much easier to work on). FWIW, my first car was a 4 yr old 1970 Bronco and more recently wanted another one. I...

My first 2 windshields were OEM with all the Bronco labeling and it was mfg by Carlite (no longer a Ford owned company). The 3rd and current windshield, non OEM, and mfg by Fuyao, an additional OEM mfg of windshields (mine has none of the Bronco labeling). This replacement has lasted 1/ 1/2...

A friend of mine owns an auto glass shop. They charge $250 for the required calibration after windshield replacement. They have to perform the calibration to avoid liability in case of an accident and the calibration equipment cost them $16,000, thus they have to recoup that expense that is part...

I have now received 2 text messages informing me that remote features of the FordPass app have been disabled to preserve the battery. My Bronco is not quite 3 1/2 yrs old with 29,000 miles, but not withstanding this message, I know the time for battery replacement is getting near. The voltage...

You must have misread the original post. The OP financed the Bronco in Dec 2021 per the posting, the same time I financed mine, thus sub 2% rates were in existence at that time. Also what was said was that the monthly payment is $1,000. This is accurate for a 5 yr loan of $50,000+ at the 6+%...

You weren’t very smart with your financing choice. I financed in Dec 2021 at 1.9% w/BofA. current lowest % rate in my area is 5.75% using a couple of credit unions. IMHO , you are stuck with what you have.

Many insurance carriers have re-worded the racing exclusion to also include any instance of damage whether a sanctioned event or not, or just testing a vehicle on a track that is not a racing event. See attached State Farm policy exclusion

I have 2 identical Halo Bolt Jump Starters. They have started a Range Rover, Mercedes S Class, Chev Silverado, and various other models with smaller engines. It works perfectly and holds a charge forever. It provides piece of mind in not needing a 2nd vehicle if the dead battery happens to be...

Zach……Aquestion for you in that you cannot sell a warranty to someone in California, but if a California resident used a family member’s address in Arizona, would you make the sale of an extended warranty?

Yes, you are correct……along with a slew of added fees to the cost of registration. I just paid $577 to renew my 2021 Bronco registration and $227 to renew my 2013 Honda Pilot registration. Just another revenue source to be misappropriated into nowhere’s land!

California does not recognize any trade in reduction, thus the sales tax is based on the full sales price of the vehicle, and also based on your residence address sales tax rate no matter where you buy

Just because dealers may get kickbacks or offer customer incentives doesn’t always mean the consumer is getting charged for it. When I bought my Honda Pilot in 2013, Honda Financial offered an additional $1,000 discount in using them along with 0.9% interest for 5 yrs. For those paying cash, the...

What has not been said is that a 5 year 60,000 mile Powertrain Warranty applies, thus any powertrain issues that arise during the powertrain warranty period apply, and the extended warranty kicks in once the powertrain warranty period is exhausted

I have a CarFax car care app on my phone (came at no cost) and my listed Bronco has a no cost CarFax report link attached to the reported service records which includes a Monroney attached. Go to your Smartphone App and search for CarFax Car Care

The $605 in Fees is based on a lease, not purchase. The site defaults to a lease acquisition rather than an outright purchase.

I worked with Granger back in late 2020 before the initial order banks for the 2021 models ever opened. Obviously they have upgraded their sales systems as when I talked with them, for a Calif purchase back then, they would provide a temporary plate for transit of the vehicle out of the...

Other things you’ll need to know about bringing an out of state purchase to California 1) you will need to have the Bronco smogged in order to register it in Calif. 2) you will need to pay sales tax as part of the registration process. If you paid sales tax to Granger, Calif will charge for the...

I feel the same way you do and have the nice alert on the mirrors. I have heard that gge mirror material is different and that attempting to remove/replace the “bubbles” actually damages the glass type material, thus I’d advise against adding those stick on side view “bubbles”

Don’t forget the non power brakes that took a 1/4 mile to stop when wet from the rain. At least I had an aftermarket under dash air conditioner. Those skinny tires made for an adventure to drive at speeds above 60 mph, but once taller/wider tires were added, stability improved 1000%.
