  1. Awful sounds from rear bronco hardtop. Any ideas?

    Looking for help from the community and ford. Please see the attached video, sounds are awfully loud and occur especially at low speeds 0-40, worse on bumps. Things I Tested: 1. I took the tire off thinking it was the tailgate as the issue and the big tire hardtop was still on and noise still...
  2. 2021 Bronco Badlands (MT) 2.3l won't start up with a single click noise

    Hey guys, had my first Bronco (MT 40k miles) for 3 weeks and first post here. Sadly; 1. My Bronco failed to start back up from ASS rest at a traffic light and would not start at all. There was no cranking noise but just a single click which sounded like it was coming from somewhere between the...
  3. B&O System Subwoofer Body Wall Crack

    My first post to bronco6g. Preface this by saying I've sold Ford for the past 12+ years and still do. Custom ordered my 22' Wildtrak 4-door Hardtop. It's pretty much loaded. 1 year order. Have a bit over 6,500 miles on it. Been in the shop for tech/software/stereo issues 4 times now. This...
  4. Window Issue

    I don’t know if any of you have experienced this issue yet, but I have a 2022 2dr bronco big bend and my driver side window and my passenger side windows stops at different points when fully down. My driver side window does not go as far down into the door as the passenger. I noticed this and...
  5. Do I keep or sell my Bronco Back to the dealership?

    I purchased a 2022 4 door Outerbanks 2.3 L back in July 2023 from a private party in California basically brand new (had 2300 miles on it). I love this car, the uniqueness and everything is a win in my book. I started hearing a loud clunk in the transmission (video attached). After many trips...
  6. Leaking seal at MIC roof and windshield frame

    I believe others have encountered similar issues… I’m sure some will say this is “to be expected with a hardtop convertible SUV…” but my wallet begs to differ. Wondering what others’ experience is getting Ford to fix this, and if their fix (assuming one exists) is effective. I have a service...
  7. Interior Lock/Unlock Buttons Not Working

    Has anyone had issues with their lock/unlock buttons not working on their interior door panels? Went to unlock the doors to let someone in today and the buttons are not functioning and they aren’t even illuminated. The buttons on the passenger side are working just fine. Photo below for reference.
  8. Rear struts done at 54000kms?????

    It seems to me that my rear struts have bit the dust. started noticing it around 54km, very bad now at 57km. stock badlands suspension, stock 33" tires. Minimal towing, under 2000lbs, once a month maybe.. The odd dirt road when going camping. Other than that its mostly been highway driven...
  9. Check 4x4 warning after changing tire size

    I’ve been using Forscan on my bronco to eliminate things like double honk and add all my GOAT Modes. Today I reprogrammed my tire circumference and after cycling the ignition I got a Check 4x4 warning and service soon alert. I’ve seen some posts saying that it just went away, some say to relearn...
  10. Bent soft top rails - anyone ever fixed this without going through insurance?

    Drove into garage door with soft top in 2nd position (two days after getting a lift and new tires, forgetting I would no longer fit 🥴🥺🥴) Now of course the rails are bent - the top closes but there are gaps. Hate to file a claim with auto insurance if it can be fixed at home. Has anyone been...
  11. Stuttering while stopping

    I have a 2023 Ford Bronco with the 2.3 and an automatic transmission. I've experienced the stuttering problems at very low speeds that I've found documented in other posts (I almost stalled in a construction zone the other day). It is indeed very frustrating. But the most annoying thing I've...
  12. Ideas on how to prove out intermittent issues to dealers?

    Disclaimer, this isn't a whining post, and I am not inherently accusing dealers of lying I've got a few issues with the bronco that are intermittent and do NOT happen 100% of the time. However, they do indeed occur on a regular basis and drive me nuts. Main issue is the vibration I get at...
  13. From Mustang GT to Bronco WildTrak - Time for a Change

    Hi All, Just picked up my 2023 Area 51 Wildtrak yesterday! I'm coming from 12 years of mustangs, with the last 8 spent in my 2015 Competition Orange Mustang GT. I've loved being a part of the Mustang community, and few things beat the sound of NA 5.0 exhaust note, but it was time for a change...
  14. LOUD Rotational Metal Scraping Noise @ Rear Passenger Wheel

    Hi Guys, I have a 2023 Badlands 4 Door and it has about 500 miles on it. I am getting a super loud scraping noise from the right rear wheel. Hitting the brakes does not change the sound, increasing speed increases the noise. However, in reverse there is no noise... What could be going on here?
  15. Creaking sound when going over bumps

    Hello! I was cruising around yesterday at El Mirage OHV area in Ca and I sent it a little too hard over a couple bumps. Bash plates took most of the hits I think but I am now hearing a creaky noise when I go over any bumps and do any turns where I’m fully turning the steering wheel. I’m new to...
  16. MIC Hard Top Wind Noise Reduction - 2023 Edition - Plus Bonus Fix for Bad Adhesive

    Like many, I plan to use my long-awaited Bronco for long road trips. Like slightly fewer, I'm a bit of an NVH snob. I've had the dash off my Mustang probably 10 times searching for rattles and lining everything with felt and double-sided tape before it was silenced to my liking. My Bronco...
  17. Gaia Freezing Issue???

    Do any of you that have Gaia Maps have the issue of it freezing/locking up when going into reverse or when changing apps? It seems like any time the SYNC screen is changed from Gaia and back, it locks up. I'm using a Galaxy S10 & Android Auto. Has anybody had this issue and fixed it?
  18. Shaking in 4H

    Interested in what y’all think this could be. So I noticed that when I drive in 4H I will feel some shaking towards the front end. I won’t feel it in 2H, but when I switch to 4H I will feel it when I start to accelerate. Once I hit 2nd or 3rd gear it’s more than likely gone and I no longer...
  19. Bad Throw Out Bearing // Manual Transmission

    Who has had a bad throw out bearing on their Manual Transmission Bronco? I’ve had a weird noise on my 7MT Badlands since the day I brought it home, which I created a post about a few weeks ago (linked below). I took it to the dealership and they just diagnosed a bad throw out bearing. I’m...
  20. Order Made For You By Dealer?

    Hi all, this is my first thread on the forum. I’ve been actively wall-flowering for months but wanted to get myself involved. I am interested in seeing if others are in the same boat, here. Or… to see if I’ve been swindled… Res: 2021 Aug Order: 2021 November Status at time of this post: no...
