MIC Top 1.0 Replacement is NOT guaranteed

[Tonka Bronka]

Spoiled? LOL, I've waited like everyone else! What I didn't do is pick commodity constrained items that would delay my build/delivery. I did my research, knew what to order, knew what I could add at a later date and clicked submit in Ford's WBDO.

Working with a good knowledgeable dealership that has highly trained Bronco Specialist was key.

That’s awesome!

I dont think its a real recall, just a customer satisfaction program thing.

Yep- Program 21B49

Oh yeah. I gave Ford the benefit of doubt right up until we started seeing MIC 1.0 stickers right next to MIC 2.0 stickers on the same clamshell portion of the top. Its clear they thought they had a solution with whatever this "primer" is they've applied, but its clear its not an actual new top.

I think the Primer was always part of the process and not a MIC 2.0 fix. My primer was applied one day after the other dated sticker (5-19-2021 ). My Bronco was delivered 7/16/21 -so a MIC 1.0.

To me it seems that Ford is replacing my entire MIC roof and side glass. They will reuse the back glass. Letter has two key phrases that may open it up to an inspection :
"... it may be possible that there is an exposed or unsealed hard top panel edge ..."
"... under the terms of the program. "

I got the same letter a couple of weeks ago. I believe it stated that we have until September 2022 to replace. Think I'm going to wait until next Summer to get my changed.....maybe by then they will figure out how to make quality tops

This is the way to play it unless your MIC 1.0 is a true atrocity.

If I were a MIC 1.0 owner I would slow roll the replacement and hope that the MIC quality improves next year.

Yep, will do the same. Just need to fix that damn popping noise myself.

Hi all, dealer replaced my MIC top on 2-Door yesterday and they even transferred my existing tinted windows. I am confident to say it remedied the creaking/popping noises. Looks exactly the same as first one except noise-cancelling headliner looks more black.

Good to know- I also have a BaseSas with aftermarket tint.
Just curious if you have dated production stickers and if so what are the dates ?
