Do (mostly) no issues Broncos exist?

[timhood]

apparently "I don't like where the emergency flasher button is, I have to reach over two more inches than I think I should, frankly it's in a spot where no driver could possibly find it" is now, in today's world, a "serious issue" that we all must acknowledge and embrace simply because someone said so.

That's right up there with, "I don't want to bother to learn how stuff works and consider it a major problem if it doesn't work the way I guessed it should."

New owner here. Bought a new Big Bend 2.3L, manual trans, soft top a couple weekends ago. Have put almost 500 miles on it (5 on the odo when I test drove it) so far and I love it! Everything works as it should. The engine is smooth, the trans is smooth, and carplay even stays connected to my iphone.

I lurked here on the forum for a month or so before I bought the Bronco and almost decided not to buy one due to the posts on this forum. I know folks are more likely to post when they have issues, but are any of you driving what has been a mostly issues free Bronco? It's hard to tell if the good ones outnumber the problems some times.

Here's a pic from our first weekend of driving around the Texas hill country backroads.

I have a 2022. Flawless. No issues whatsoever. Keep in mind that forums like this will artificially inflate the negatives. Every vehicle made has it's issues but the vast majority of them are on the road, trouble free. I look back at all of the vehicles I have owned and for the most part, they were all great with few issues. Basically, none other than maintenance. If there was a minor issue or a recall, Ford took care of it. Enjoy your Bronco!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

0 issues with 22 OBX with 30000 miles.

22 Badlands only had my hood latch replaced due to alarm doing off randomly.

Apart from a few quirks connecting my phone via Android Auto, I've had zero issues with my Bronco. It's been a lovely vehicle so far and has done almost everything I've asked of it on the trail.

Tons and tons of off-road miles, 21 Big Bend Sasquatch with the 2.3 and auto. No major issues except the dreaded frame cracks that occur in a handful of the first year Broncos.

2 years, 23k miles, zero issues. I'm going to agree with everyone who's stated it depends on your definition of "issue." I don't consider things like Carplay being intermittent or the seat belt motor not retracting (there's a TSB, but I haven't taken it in) as huge issues. I also have moisture in the rear cargo area (under the washout floor) which is a design flaw (also has a TSB, but when I took it in they needed the doors/top on it)

So there's a few things, but overall it's been great, some decent 4 wheeling here and there, daily driver, a lot of sand and salt on it. Really fun to drive.

I have been changing the oil every 5k miles, and I do worry about the Ecoboost long term.

2023 Wildtrak. No issues at all. I had a couple of minor glitches with the 8 inch screen on my first Base, but nothing major until it was totaled by a red light runner Jan. 1, 2024. Got the new one about a week later.

Approaching 15k miles, with the exception of the 7MT tranny rattle when temps drop, no issues. The rattle doesn't appear to effect operation, more of an annoyance.

 

[UtahBrandon]

'21 Badlands with 43k miles and I had a transfer case module replaced within the first few months of ownership, but otherwise no issues at all.

I own a two door 2022 Badland Sasquatch, Lux, Tow, and 2.7L V6. Outside of a failed fuel pump at 14,021 miles I have had no other issues with it. I upgraded the rear speaker pods and replaced the corner dash speakers to give the B&O system a brighter sound.
