Here are some photos of the trail recovery to pavement and pick-up by Ford Roadside Assistance...

1) Found her just where I left her, at the bottom of the hill and off to the side of the trail...

If this issue strictly occurs with heavy trail driving Iʻm sure Ford has seen this at the Off-Rodeos since those get put through their paces daily. Doubt they would share that info publicly though.

Also thanks for sharing the photos

Glad you were able to recover your Bronco and I learned a lot on this thread, thank you all.

Now if only we could find a way to avoid all these low tire pressure alerts that we get when airing down 🤦‍♂️

Thanks for the pics of the recovery. Hopefully it is a quick fix and you won’t have to wait too long for parts and are back out on trail soon.

…. If that IS the case though, and you financed, fight with Ford to get them to cover your payments while it's out for service. …
I went thru this last year with my 2021 Ford Ranger Lariat FX4 lemon that was in the shop for 64 days straight after 4 months of ownership. Ford will pick up the monthly payment (if you ask, it’s not automatic) If you financed thru Ford credit.

Glad you guys made it out okay. Definitely keep us tuned in when you find out what happened.

Was simple enough with the right equipment, which is why we didn't attempt it the first day. All we would have accomplished then was blocking the trail at the base of the incline, which would have been a douchebag move. These trails don't have room to fit my Tacoma, much less room for someone to bypass a vehicle in the trail. I don't have to try when I know. We also weren't worried about leaving it overnight because we don't wheel in the projects like some must. We tend to avoid the crowds and don't travel in packs, so coming back the next day can be the smarter choice at times.

Alls well that ends well and was just another day off roading.

One quick glance at your vehicle list told me that. I was just being funny. There's lots of FORD acronyms I could have listed...Fixed Or Repaired Daily, or the classic Fuckin Old Rebuilt Dodge. Sweet rides by the way.

if it fails at off-rodeo, it fails when a customer is driving it which then makes it public. I am sure that customer then post it on this forum. Has anyone posted such an incident?

Doubt they would share that info publicly though.

I don't keep up with all the off-rodeo threads, but I've read several accounts of vehicles being disabled and unavailable at several events. I doubt the reason was ever known at the time or shared with the paying customers.

Glad you got her out and hopefully Ford gets it up and running soon.

It's great to have good friends you can lean on when faced with the challenges you had out there.

Great, this is lovely🤦🏼‍♂️. The last thing anyone wants is to be remote and alone and have this happen. Thankfully you were with someone that could help. 🙏🏻

What a great group of friends! Glad you got her to safety without any parts disappeared to the chop shop 😂

Absolutely. Seen many reports of disabled Broncos at the event. There was one sent to the “shed” at one of the off rodeos I attended. Not that we ever know the exact reason.
