Sasquatch is a suspension/offroad package basically, so that doesn’t have any relevance on door handles.

But you must be referring to something else.
I’m talking about what you said about the rear doors.
“the back doors NEVER work with touching the handle”
Nothing is supposed to happen when you touch the handle on the back doors of a 4 door. None of the Broncos have captive touch sensor handles in the rear doors. Only the front doors and the tailgate.
Mine did

You’re saying your bronco has sensors on the rear exterior door handles? If that’s the case, I’m pretty sure you’re mistaken.

In his defense, I wouldn’t put it past coming out of the factory as he describes…

I've had the keyfob refuse to touch unlock about 3-4 times over 2.5 years. One time (recently) I noticed the seatbelt was kinda wedged in the bottom of the door, maybe increasing the friction, although I didn't hear it actuating anything. Another time I was carrying something big so I thought it was getting in the way, maybe (back door). Always started working again the next time I tried after driving somewhere.

Sorry to disappoint ya but mine does. Just checked this morning again…I went out with my fob in pocket and pulled on the tailgate handle and it unlocked as soon as I touched it. It locked as soon as I pressed the button on the handle. It just works intermittently. Sometimes I have to put the fob up adjacent to the handle for it to work.

I said REAR doors. I never said the tailgate doesn't have a sensor.
Your REAR doors aren't supposed to work, because they don't have sensors. 🤦‍♂️

Sorry you are correct. My issue is that the tailgate doesn’t work most of the time and it doesn’t start many times without positioning the fob in its secret place.
