It’s a bad sign when parts are falling off and you still only have your temp tags!

That’s all I’m saying. It’s not a month old. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up. I see these falling off all over the place. They should’ve made it lock in and not glue it.

Besides this piece falling off, I’m having a great time. Guys check this part as I feel it’s going be a failure point. I seen another Bronco who had issues with this part also. I’ll call my dealer tomorrow to see how they will fix this.

On a brighter note, I bet your 35s and those sweet bronze wheels were getting quite A few compliments and double takes

The piece in your hand is the outer shell it is microwelded to the black bracket that is still attached to the vehicle you need to remove the bracket from the bronco glue the outer shell back to the bracket then reattach to the bronco or take it to the dealer and let them deal with it

That’s annoying. I’ve noticed these pieces fit like shit on every bronco I’ve seen in person. It looks like such an ugly afterthought of a body piece that fills an awkward gap that shouldn’t be there

I repair high-end vehicles (Porsche, Lambos, BMW, Mercedes, etc.) Those little "appliques" are frequently glued on or double sided taped on from the factory. I will reglue or retape them back on. But, if it's a part you really want to stay on, and you're not worried about having to take it back off for any reason, I would use windshield glue that you can buy at any auto part store. Don't use too much, and after putting the part back on, tape the part to the vehicle so it stays in place while drying.
It won't fall off again. Trust me.

I’m definitely thinking the same thing I already hit my sales guy up he said bring it to the service dept. I got a Velcro thing from Walmart holding it in rn. Can’t be looking crazy at Bronco Super Celebration!
