They fob itself isn't so pricey it's what it cost to have programmed at a dealer (required) so you're looking at a minimum of at least $150.

would the warranty and or extended warranty I bought have a lost key replacement section

If you purchased that option on your ford extended warranty. I don’t know if the deductible applies but figure on around 225 for fob, emergency key cut, and dealer programming the new key ( because you don’t have two programmed keys to do it yourself )

UPDATE ! FOUND MY KEY FOB THIS MORNING STUCK IN THE RECLINER . I HAD TIPPED IT OVER TWO DAYS AGO AND NOTHING. TODAY I FLIPPED IT OVER A DIFFERENT WAY AND IT FELL OUT.

I did the double check cause the dealership quoted me close to 300 bucks so I rechecked everything again and it payed off.

Out of concern about losing a key and the cost, I got a 3rd party key for $24 the other day, and the programming process was easy. You might want to consider that while you have the two keys available for the programming.

You should buy an AirTag key ring

Glad it turned up!

I bought this key offered on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/145006246791

And programmed it according to these instructions provided by forum member @Ducati1098 (worked fine after first attempt):

General Procedures	Procedure revision date: 03/14/2019

Programming

Did you purchase a second key when you originally bought your Bronco? When i took delivery of mine, the dealer only provided me a single key/fob. So if i lose it, I have no key at all. I didn’t think about it at the time but later thought it odd that they only provide one key.

I’m wondering now if the Dealer misplaced or forgot to give me a second key/fob.

FFS - scratch that. I completely forgot i hid my second key the second i got home from the dealer.

 

[old goat]

all broncos come with two key fob's , go back to dealer and demand your second fob,

and no I never purchased a second fob , two came with my bronco.

also I read some where that there was a time Ford only shipped with one but Ford made it whole if you contact them. but I would go back to dealer first.

good luck

Yeah... this aint right. You should have gotten 2 fobs with your Bronco, and furthermore, you will take a couple of hundred dollar hit at trade-in time if you only have one key fob. I would make some inquiries to see if you cant get a second fob from someone at no cost to you.

Thanks guys. Complete brain failure on my part. I had hid the second key on day one and apparently erased that from my memory. Too careful for my own good.
