Once you include the Mid package, the $1,495 cost of the Auto gets baked into the price of the E5B0 Bronco ($42,535 is $1,595 greater than the price of the "base" BD of $40,940). More games from Ford on the B&P...
I have a '21 OBX. I received a message in FordPass on 9/23/22 that I'm "rolling with the latest Ford Power-Up". Clicking on Update Details shows that Ford Power-Up 3.5.2 and that this update "helps prepare your vehicle for Alexa and other future improvements" and that I should "stay tuned...

Iām not familiar with NHTSA processes but this looks like a standard Request For Information (RFI) as part of their investigation. The Certified Mail w/ RRR is more than likely to avoid Ford (and all the other...
Just saw this, and I didn't see it posted previously in the thread. I'm not sure when it was posted to the NHTSA site, but the letter is dated Aug 8. Basically, it's the information request to Ford from the NHTSA - 13 specific sets of info in various formats. Due date for the info is Sept 28...

If itās just that you donāt like the woven paracord, they also make it out of plastic like more traditional handles.

I can see how it can come across that way. But itās the reason the NHTSA has this set up this way. File enough reports and thereās an investigation. Call it Karen-like if you will but there has to be another way to get Ford to at least acknowledge the problem.
Iām a big believer in āif you canāt make someone listen to you, find the person they have to listen toā. I do think that if enough people file complaints, something may get triggered. I wish I knew how many for the same thing acts as the trigger.
A TSB or manufacturer communication can have multiple entries for what it effects. That page displays multiple things for the same TSB / comms. So to me itās a bit misleading in terms of the number of TSBs/comms
There have been other posts that suggest the caps can't simply be added back on:

No idea what is going on with the seller on Amazon that results in a ābanned vendorā but you should be able to search for ā 2021+ Ford Bronco Speaker Wiring Harness Adapterā and find them. Should be from Hoel Audio or something like that.
This is a really helpful chart - thanks! But doesn't this mythical 5k miles threshold assume a lot? I'm kinda lost why mileage is used (given the fact that engine and part stress could be completely different from one person's 5k miles to another) as opposed to, say, engine hours, total...
Starting to see Complaints entered on the NHTSA site. I do think this is a good path that everyone that experienced a failure should do - log a complaint

There are reports that they were coming low on coolant from the factory for whatever reason:

It's even on the Delivery Checklist that is being maintained. It boggles my mind that something like "low coolant" is not...
The NHTSA site was not working for Broncos for a long while - its seems they are back up for listing all the recalls, complaints and mfr comms like TSBs and others

Are we co-mingling different types of failures in this thread? It seems like coolant issues might be completely separate than a valve manufacturing issue or whatever the problem is? Or don't we care anymore and just want to capture anything that caused a 2.7 to grenade?
As far as I can recall and search, MAP was shut down the weeks of 7/5 and 7/26. 7/5 falls squarely in the "clear" gap, while the second block of failures starts on 7/26.
I cannot find anything about Lima being shutdown during those same times, if Lima is where the engines are built.
A board member started selling these but I have no experience using them
