Iāve received multiple updates since posting about the problem and it still hasnāt been fixed. Posted speed limit still disappears from instrument cluster when in an active GPS route in CarPlay (when using Google Maps, Waze, Apple Maps, etc.)
Even a signed purchase agreement is no guarantee. I had one and my dealer refused to honor it and threatened to not sell me the Bronco when it arrived. They just want you to cave in so they can mark it up and sell to someone else. I paid their asking price just to secure it then put them on...
That orange ARB line will eventually fail if direct connected to the compressor without a manifold. Ask me how I know. Way too much heat is generated at that coupling.
EDIT: Just saw @4x4TruckLEDs.com post above about the new vs. old ARB hose. Iām one of the unlucky ones with the original hose...
No sealant. Didnāt really need to scrape anything. Just used blue paper shop towels like you and a little bit of the diluted IPA. The reusable gasket is nice.
Did my rear diff today. Iām sure Iām overthinking this but what do you use to clean the reusable gasket and mating surfaces?
I know a lot of folks use brake cleaner but Iāve heard that itās bad for rubber so concerned it could damage the gasket.
I ended up using a plastic scrapper and some...
I understand your reasoning and it makes sense. Itās almost a separate issue from Fordās own inconsistency on the two types of fluids specified for front and rear.
Iām just proud of myself for changing my own fluid š I havenāt seen a single mention of recommended intervals for driveline fluid...
I confirmed with two separate dealerships using my VIN that both front and rear diffs for my 21 Bronco are sepcād with the same āMotorcraftĀ® SAE 75W-85 Premium Synthetic Hypoid Gear Lubricantā.
Not sure why my copy of the service manual/spec sheet for the 2022 Bronco differs. Maybe they have...
What is the correct fluid spec for the front diff? Per this thread it shows both āMotorcraftĀ® SAE 80W-90 Premium Rear Axle Lubricantā and āMotorcraftĀ® SAE 75W-85 Premium Synthetic Hypoid Gear Lubricantā without mentioning which fluid goes where. I also downloaded the service manual and the front...

Got it back from the dealer. Hereās a picture. Their position is that Ford will not replace the part. I have a call into Ford and received a message that āthere is no program to replace the partā. Not sure how that has anything to do with a warranty. Weāll see where this goes but my gut tells me...
Iāve kept a running list of issues. Warranty is up in 500 miles so dropped it off to get all of the items fixed. This is one of them. I agree, warranty should cover this issue.
Has anyone else had this happen? The glass (plastic) in front of my speedometer has developed a vertical crack in the center from the bottom half way up to the top. Dealer wonāt repair under warranty because āthis type of thing just doesnāt happen so it must be from damageā. Ridiculous. š¤·š½āāļø
First wash when new from factory (and once a year after):
1) Spray car with foam cannon using pressure washer. I use Turtle Wax car wash. Always foam first then rinse. This breaks down the dirt and prevents scratches.
2) Rinse with power washer.
3) Wash per maintenance wash instructions below...
