If it comes to that yes there is capability to see a brief, recent history. It’s not something that generally gets looked at though unless a warranty claim is suspended until an investigation can be completed.
I was thinking more about accident evaluation...onstar had that shit for 20 yrs. Shows throttle position, brake position, gear selection, speed , g forces....ect and records it all and saved several seconds of previous driving once airbags deployed and also uploaded the data to GM.

Yes there is an entirely separate log that does get uploaded in the event of a collision. However the reference logs for warranty validation are stored locally on the modules themselves, though they can be remotely accessed

I have a 21 SAS Badlands 2 door with the 2.7 and I have had this issue for 3 months. While driving multiple warning lights including engine light, pre collision assist warning, 4x4 off, service advance track, service now and more come on and my engine shuts off. The bronco still has power and can go into accessory mode but the engine will not crank or attempt to turn back on. I left it at my home town dealer and they reset the pcm and it seemed to work fine until the issue came back. Now at college I have been left stranded again and took it to the local dealer where they held on to it for 3 weeks and claimed they got help from the engineering hotline but only reset the pcm once again. After I picked it up I was left stranded again twice within 2 days. I called ford customer service and they can’t help me. The dealerships can’t help me. Nobody will help me. As a prior ford family dealership owner, I am extremely disappointed and dissatisfied with how ford and other dealers have attempted to help.
My ford pass app tells me it is an issue with the auto start stop feature. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem?
UPDATE:
After about 4 months and 5 trips to the dealership later, the issue has seemed to be fixed for good. The culprit was a bad battery junction box. After replacing it, all is back to normal. Thanks to all who helped and I hope this thread can help others in the case that a similar issue arises for them.
