First time I ever had a vehicle broken into. Insult to injury is that I only had it for 3 days.

It sucks, but at least the truck was so new that nothing of value was inside, or so I thought. I realized this morning that there was something in it other than my registration, the tool kit.

That's pretty upsetting. Anyone have a part number? TIA.

They also took an accessory cap. Cheap part from Ford at $32. I guess I've never had anything nice enough for someone to be jealous of.

I had this happen a few years ago. Only thing in it was a suit jacket, which they stole. I still find broken glass.

Cameras might help but people in my area will literally flip off ring cams and steal packages with their face exposed.

Maybe just leave the doors off all the time? People are leaving doors open in San Francisco so they don't have to keep replacing the glass.

Sorry, that SUCKS. I'd be curious to know how much that side window is to replace...for when mine eventually is broken into.

Yeah, I should have mentioned I had to drive an hour home with no glass @22° F.

I'd go doors off if it wasn't so damn cold.

Hate hearing about your troubles.Hopefully you get it back in shape soon and without too much trouble.

Sadly, this is the world we live in today. Crime is acceptable in many places these days. :(

$329 from safelite and it may be weeks before they get it in due to pandemic and new vehicle.

Sigh... makes me fear leaving my car somewhere for more than an hour. Very sorry for you, and I am upset that these things happen.

Almost makes you not want to outfit your rig..

I have been a victim of one car burglary, it sucked. Took 3 dollars in coins and $5 sunglasses while at a dog park.

F thieves.

It can happen anywhere unfortunately. My 07 4Runner was broken into twice, once in Palm Springs CA and again in Dallas, TX.

Man, sorry this happened. I know the feeling.

One of the few things I like about Tesla is their camera surveillance system. That would be nice to have in situations like this one.

Just heard back from my local Ford Parts dealer, he says the toolkit is only $55, but backordered.

I wonder if it will have the bronco branding like the original.
