Not really. The forum is about predicated around Bronco related questions. I was genuinely curious and have had some quality replies. You don’t have to answer or even read the question.
Also i believe that the double-pull to open/unlock (on the other vehicles with electric lock only) is triggered electronically. So in the event of power failure, the occupant is still screwed..
Nope. This is why it makes me wonder why my '19 Ford Edge and '20 Ford Ranger only have electronic lock buttons with no manual lock option. There's no consistency..
That's the most plausible reasoning yet. That or what Silver-bolt mentioned that it is required for certain vehicles..
What piqued my curiosity is that neither my Edge or Ranger have the redundant manual/electronic lock feature (just electric) but the Bronco does. The owner's manual glossing...
That is true. Yet if that were a widespread concern, why doesn't every vehicle come with both manual and electric lock/unlock buttons? Is the Bronco somehow more susceptible to lock/unlock failure than others? The owners manual doesn't address it at all, leaving it open to question...
Not at all. The question is: why is this lock/unlock (ie manual and electric) redundancy needed? Why not just have the electric buttons and be done with it? What’s the point..
I haven't been able to find an identified use for the door latch push/pull "lock" button (see pic below). The owner's manual does not address it. I assume it is a manual lock--but what would the purpose be if there's already electric lock/unlock buttons? Can someone solve this probably simple...
Yes..the hitchmount looks like the ticket. You can have your soft top up or down without rack restriction. It'll also work on a pickup truck--which is cool added bonus..
