I ordered my 2-door (I am a bit of a purist) the minute reservations opened up. Day 1 reservation. It took me over 500 days to get my bronco. Got it in November of 2021. Six months later, my wife got pregnant with our firstborn.
However, I drove my 2021 model 12k miles all over the country and...
I wanted to post this beauty one last time before I say goodbye. We had an amazing 1.5 years together (give or take). I love this truck, but it was the right time to sell. I now have a beautiful baby girl, and I need something a little bigger for her, the dog, and my beautiful wife. Family comes...
I just contacted the service manager at my local dealer, so I am praying he can come through in the clutch. I have a baby girl about to be born on the 28th, so naturally, there is no way I will be able to buy new rims or get this fixed anytime soon. Let's hope for a New Years' miracle!
Man, I just am now going through this problem. Posted about it here.
How were you able to sweet-talk your dealer service manager into helping you? Mine wants $3200 plus labor and tax to replace 18 bolts and one wheel. Which I think is a little maddening. I would just new wheels at that point...
I found this thread here on a similar issue a Bronco 6G user was having.
Clearly, this is not an isolated incident, I just hope I can convince my dealer to work with me on this one with Ford. :(
***UPDATE***
Defective bolts have been replaced (18 of them), with the exception of one bolt, which was so poorly cross-threaded that I just told them to remove it and keep it empty. Otherwise, I would have needed to buy a whole new wheel. The excellent team at Maxwell Ford helped me get all...
Has anyone gotten an infant car seat in the back of the two-door that didn't move a ton laterally?
I have the Doona for my newborn from a family member who no longer needs it, but I can't figure out how to get that base from moving over an inch from left to right. Front to back, we are all...
Anyone else having this issue?
The lid to the area where you fill the tank (is there an official name for this part?) no longer opens easily. I have to dig in there with my finger to open the lid. Obviously, it's not detrimental or super serious, just rather annoying. I put a video for...
Carb Gray is also the best, most timeless color. Don't let the haters convince you otherwise. I see Cactus Gray models here in Texas around every corner. That or A51. Seldom do I see Carb Gray or LB.
I'm curious if this is an issue with Ford Sync or Carplay (or both), but here are the bugs and issues I encounter pretty often (With WIRELESS Carplay):
Phone takes up to 30 seconds to connect
Carplay connects, but there is tremendous lag on the on-screen buttons and navigating the menu
Carplay...
Oddly enough (perhaps I am an outlier here) but compared to my 2000 Wrangler and my 2006 Highlander, My 2021 Bronco IS A LUXURY VEHICLE to me. Never have had Carplay, a 12" Screen, etc. Ignorance is bliss.
I won hundred percent agree with this.
no car is perfect. I’m just being honest with what I’m using mine for. I even bought a fucking Badlands trim, but I have no plans to go rock crawling. I bought the badlands so if I wanted to resell it one day I’d have good features to get top dollar.
but...
This is all you need to know. When I have the top off on my Bronco, and my dog in the back seat, I've gotten approached at least 10x. People turn their heads. People want to ask you about it. Shit, if I were single, this would be one the best ways to meet new people. ;)
When I had my Wrangler...
I will fully admit, I bought the Bronco for LOOKS vs. FUNCTION.
I didn't have the patience to watch a 30 min long video on everything those two disliked about the Bronco - But I imagine it was all pretty sound and legit....IF YOU ARE A HARDCORE OFF-ROADER.
I am not. I cruise around, because...
