Is anyone else getting hit up for ownership feedback surveys? I got both Ipsos and JD Power.

Also, I finally have what I feel is a legitimate gripe. The windshield wipers. They're just not able to clean off bugs, and after a few days of driving in spring weather, my front windshield looks like a dang Jackson Pollack painting of bug viscera smears.

Yea I got hit up by JD Power.

Agree on the wipers.

How’s everybody been doing? I’ve been MIA for about a week. Need to catch up.

Maybe try some degreaser ? Simple green with some water mixture and spray under and all inside? Not real sure other than that...
Hot water would work best if possible
I’d return it to the dealer… that way if there were any issues with electrical… they would be responsible. They Created the issue… they should resolve and detail.
So I called the dealer this morning and spoke with the service manager. He sounded defeated when I started explaining what happened. He told me to bring it in at my soonest convenience and he will get it into their detail bay for a full shampoo and thorough cleaning. I do feel hesitant to let them touch it again, but I think at this point the service manager will make sure it's right. When I started telling him how the tech dropped the funnel and spilled oil all over, he started going "oh nooo"... and I told him I'm normally not one to complain and I get it, after 15+ years working on cars I've spilled my fair share of oil but I expected it to at least be properly cleaned. He replied that he would be really upset too and he sounded like he felt bad. We'll see what tomorrow brings..

At least the documentation/history should be there in case there are any issues due to water/oil getting places it's not supposed to. Electrical issues are my biggest concern from that. I should make sure they give me a service record.

@Jazer Here’s the permanent hardware Rokblokz sent me. I’ll have to reach back out to them, as they only sent me enough for the front, so just FYI on that if you request it from them. If I remember right there was a little play in the flap with the thumbscrews when I tugged on them. The new hardware seems to have eliminated that.

Awesome. I was curious what they'd look like. Mine says front/rear in the receipt they sent me. Those look great. I picked blue for mine.

Well I finally got around to installing me weathertech mudflaps. Easy peasy. Well made. I will admit when I first saw the pic cat posted I was not happy. But I guess the shock has worn off and I actually like them. For 40 bucks I think it’s a winner.

Oily Bronco update - dropped it off at the dealer. He gave me a loaner so their head detail guy can take his time and do a thorough detailing top to bottom. He said he is very experienced and wanted to make sure my Bronco went to him to make this right again and is having him do a full detail to make it "like new"... We'll see.

Ecosport review: This thing sucks. I hate it. It's slow as shit. It's tiny. Now I really want my Bronco back.

I replaced the OEM Bumper Guard with a custom version made at a local shop in town. I didn’t like the OEM covering the Bronco Lettering on the grill.
He tilted it a bit forward to help with protection of the front a bit and to allow for better front camera view than if it were flat against at the grill.

It does block the front camera a bit, but not enough to say it’s bad.
