I know I’ve seen a thread or two about this. I tried to search for them and found one, but it was kind of unclear what the resolution was.
So here’s my situation, my first alerts came Saturday night. Check 4x4, pre-collision assist not available, service engine soon. I just hit the OK button on the steering wheel and cleared them, bronco was driving fine. I drove it on Monday, no warnings, no issues. Today, when I started it up, I got a whole bunch of warnings. I cleared them with the ok button, shut it off, started it back up, drove fine for about a half mile, then lost a lot of power and I get powertrain malfunction, check 4x4, pre collision assist, service vehicle, etc. Then on my way home a couple hours later, everything was fine for 10 miles, then the warnings came back and I lost power for the last two miles.
Scheduled an appt at the dealer for tomorrow morning. I assume it’s safe to drive there, about 16 miles.
So can anyone tell me what has solved this issue for other people? Is there anything I should make sure the service tech is aware of? From a similar thread, it seemed like people’s service techs tried all kinds of random sounding things, and many people never posted about any final fix. Do I have a lemon?
