2022 Broncos No Longer Have Temperature Setting Displayed on Control Knobs

[Kameronatm]

It affects 8 inch screens too..

Do you have anything else you have noticed on yours?

No one is happy here EXCEPT the folks who have taken delivery.

Yes. I spend a lot less time on the forum since I got mine. Life is good.

edit: Isn't it normal for features to disappear over the lifecycle of a vehicle model? Seems like they launch and figure out ways to save money along the way. Whoever said F150s lost ambient lighting for MY22 might be on to something. Someone check their MY22 Bronco for the blue lights on the bottom of the rearview mirror and in the foot wells.

You clearly don’t understand. The technology literally didn’t change at all lol the whole dual zone automatic climate control system that you paid for works the EXACT same way as a 21, other then the fact the temperature is displayed on the screen instead of the knob.

What kind of BS is that? Hey looks guys, the tech didn't change. You still get signature LED headlights!

you do know that the wavy rear windows on the soft top is by design right? This complaint comes up all the time by folks who are not informed.

If I told you I took a in the center of the hood of your Bronco, “by design.” Would that change the fact I took a in the center of your hood? I’m plenty informed of all things Bronco, thanks.

It's normal for the last 5-10 years or so, depending on brand. Before then it was usual for the new model to improve and add features to the old model.

I remember when you could order every single feature a-la-carte and build the car exactly the way you wanted it. No BS trim level restrictions and no BS option packages. Even MINI was the last hold out until about 5 years ago. Want a base model with only $2,000 leather and 18" wheels, no problem. Now it's an $8,000 package.

Can't get a sunroof on a Subaru Crosstrek with manual transmission, same with some Hondas. What the f@$K does the transmission have to do with the sunroof?

How is that normal? What’s normal about features disappearing over the lifetime of a vehicle? Vehicles don’t get less options over time, they get more and eventually they become standard.

And they thought we wouldn’t notice

Joke's on them, we notice EVERYTHING

 

[Raptor911]

informed yet still bringing something up that was by design.

and your analogy is silly. If you don't like the Bronco then don't buy one.

BUT NO everyone here is still in line and can't wait to get their Bronco with the wavy rear window.

Well shit, first it was the MIC top. Now it's this......how much more is Ford expecting me to deal with? Damn, just when I thought it was over it's back to my therapist.

EWW, you got the peasant Bronco that doesn’t even have DUAL CLIMATE KNOB TEMPERATURE READOUTS?!

*swipes left*

I like it. Great name to replace the "Base".



Nope. Changed my mind.

I don't mind driving a Peasant Bronco at all... but I'll be damned if I would drive a "Peasquatch".

Yeah because that’s real similar to what happened here. oh no! They moved the numbers, now it’ll never work like it should

My ‘70 EB has a cigarette lighter. My ‘21 doesn’t. How is that progress? WTF Ford?

I said this awhile ago, why didn't they just say 2 door/4door on the B+P and let us go hog wild on choosing what we wanted. It wouldn't have done anything, the parts are already on the line, your build just doesn't get the widget and skips the station in the current build model.

Anyone noticing that the MY22 Broncos are missing the temperature on the knob? Shoutout to @BroncoBoi for finding this.

Versus MY2021 for reference

Temperature display now appears at the top of the infotainment touchscreen display.

Send me my Bronco now and @Ford Motor Company you can put the temperature numbers anywhere you want for all I care!

I know you’re memeing but there’s actually a cigarette lighter socket in the center console — they just don’t give you the cigarette lighter coil itself. Too many supplier constraints I assume.
