I was driving my bronco and all of a sudden the gas pedal had no power, and an alert came up on the screen to restart the vehicle. I was luckily able to pull over safely and get it on the side of the road. As I turned off the car and tried restarting it, all it did was crank but not start. It's been in the shop for a few days now and I was notified by the dealer that I have to wait a few more days for them to look more in depth of what the problem is. I will update this thread when I get a response as to what happened.

Once you hear back from the dealer, if it turns out to be something wrong with the actual engine, let @mpeugeot know So he can add it to his investigative research.

Hi there – send a message to us with your VIN and approximate mileage, along with some more details about your situation. I’ll look into this for you. Thanks!

Why does it seem all the issues with the 2.7 are from July builds which is disconcerting since I have a late July build. 3.5k miles in and just counting the days till I'm left at the side of the road

There was one from the 9/6 build week as well.

I have a 10/19 build and the engine date is 21214. Is this in the range to worry about?

I know I'll take flack for this but I am seriously considering just keeping my Mustang. Don't get me wrong I want a Bronco very badly but needing to have zip ties to pick it up, and it possibly shitting the bed after delivery, among other things are making me nervous as a long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs.

I just know I'll kick myself when I'm down if I trade in a perfectly good car, for something that craps out on me before it's been driven for a month. Or at the very least has a bunch of little issues that bug the shit out of me.

Imagine being the guy that pays $50k over sticker to get a 2.7L that drops a valve and a leaky MIC top :ROFLMAO:
