That’s what I thought. I’ve not modified the motor at all and don’t drive it hard.

Typical Maryland "feel good" law. Does nothing, but the legislators get to walk away rubbing their bellies and be able to brag to their core about how they looked out for them...Looks like 30 days is a pretty much the main criteria.
I hope they get the engine replaced soon for you. But for the price protection I would not let that slide. That F'ed up they claim is $$ that probably went in someone else's pocket. I hate hearing these things how the dealerships or manufacturers treat the customers.

This is usually on the dealership. They don't know how to navigate Ford's system then blame Ford. I find it odd that some get it and some don't. There's absolutely no reason it can't be corrected retroactively except that the dealership is complacent.

..or greedy.
Where is @FordMotorCompany to ask for the VIN to expedite the repair and check delivery ??????????
I’ve only been on this forum for a little over a month & was lucky enough to get scheduled this june. but I’m feeling more & more concerned about all the issues that I have seen within such a short time-line..Sad to report that after getting my cam phasers replace at 7,302 milesMy new 2023 Badlands has to have the 2.7 motor replaced due to a broken timing chain at 7,764 miles. She left me on the side of the road on my way to work. I’ve been aghast and shocked since.
This all comes after I’ve been informed I got screwed out of my price protection/private offer$$. What a kick in the #$&*. I’m a first time Ford customer and very disappointed

I'm living under a rock... My 3 valve 5.4L had cam phaser issues, I've never heard of a 2.7L having this issue... Going back under my rock now.
Your problem is your dealership, hate your engine broke.Sad to report that after getting my cam phasers replace at 7,302 miles

The pace at which vehicles is being delivered is on FMC.
The price protection issues are totally on scumbag dealers. Trust me, they know how to navigate Fords systems. They are all well aware of discounts and incentives. They monitor that shit like a greasy chicken hawk over roadkill.
Some dealers are just banking on buyers either not being aware of free money or not pursuing getting it.
Edit: salesman and other employees are often not told about about certain incentives or other available money. It comes down to the people who have access to the Ford systems. And they are often people who buyers never speak with

My window sticker was 2k more than original order and I was told I had price protection. The dealer gave me 8oo.oo at purchase toward the 2k and said ford would send me the rest. after waiting never saw it. The dealer kept saying it was ford. So finally went up the chain at ford and spoke to a person that said it was the dealer and she would escalate this into one of their meetings. About a week later the dealer called me and stated they would write me a check to settle the balance, got the check in the mail. I had a feeling ford pressured the dealer. Jim

Thanks for clearing that up!A chicken hawk is a turkey vulture.
At least they are where I live
Every engine with variable valve timing has some level of cam phaser issues. Ford has several engines that fail more than others (3.5,5.4).
I’ve been addicted to this forum for a while and need a Bronco like an addict needs meth. The sane part of my brain keeps telling me to run far away from this train wreck that is the Bronco quality roulette…but like a good addict I tell it to F off and here I am pacing the floor waiting for my turn to receive mine.
I know exactly how you feel tho man!!
