My rear passenger door is a pain to close, took a closer look at it today while installing sill protectors. It doesn’t make a noticeable metal on metal sound, just hard to close to get the window to roll up automatically. Obviously I need to take it to the dealer but is there an adjustment I can make in the meantime?? Btw, I haven’t even removed the doors or gone off-road yet, hard to close from day one.

Update 2/7 - Scheduled to take to local dealer next week, they'll take it to a body shop to fix. Word of warning, the service guy said Ford doesn't like to fix these types of issues after you've had the vehicle awhile, had he denied fixing we would have had a more interesting conversation... Check your doors at delivery or right now if you have your Bronco!

I’m having the same problem. How many miles and/or how long have you had the vehicle?

I’m at 2,300 miles and just noticed it.

I took delivery Nov 19th, only at 1,200 miles. I'll update next week how the fix goes.

Update and resolved. Dealer took care of it today, sent it to a body shop to align the door and touch up the paint. Door finally shuts like the other doors!

Highly recommend checking at PDI and keep an eye on doors that are a little more difficult to close than others.

Did you go to FoK and did they sub it out? I was pleased with the work..
Yes sir! I can tell it was touched up, no one else ever will. Door shuts fine, looks fine, covered by warranty, I'm happy. Didn't realize FoK would shuttle you around, that helped out otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get it back same day.

I have the same issue on mine (built ~1/14/22).
I have covered the area on the door and jamb with painters tape until I have an opportunity to take it in for a warranty claim.

What dealership approved your warranty? I have the same issue and have been denied twice….

I currently have this happening, same exact spot. Ive been using a touch up pen the last few weeks but it inevitably still chips. Finally reached out to Ford today and they had me take it to a body shop to evaluate. Also noticed the entire sill has one long chip from the whole underside of the door. Will update when I hear back, itll be covered under warranty.
