What’s your most annoying feature on the Bronco?

[Red_blazer]

You have to have the engine on to release the parking brake. So that I’ll pull the not hood release, start the engine and put it in first and am stopped by the parking brake.

My freezing feet in the cold Minnesota winters because no matter what I do I can’t get hot air to blow enough to feel warmth. Also there hardly any lighting in the rear of the cab. Fixed that with those add on lights someone was selling though.

Parking brake and having to reset headlight s every time I get in it.

I will have a dealer change my oil when they can pry the 1/2 inch ratchet with the required extensions and swivel from my dead cold hand.

Ha,ha you go dude. Ex ASE mechanic and was happy the day I threw the tools down and learned math. FordPass rewards gets me free oil changes with tire rotation.

Wonky Carplay only connecting at start about 80% of the time. Then of the failed 20% - 10% connecting once you plug the phone in, 5% when you go through the settings and manually connect it, and 5% not connecting at all and needing to restart the vehicle to get it to work.

Not in any particular order

1. Auto Start/Stop (ASS)
2. Lux sound system is trash
3. Overall build quality of a $65,000 vehicle is shit
4. It did not come with Lagertha

It was the double honk for me too until l realized the recirculating air button has a timer and doesn't stay on until l turn it off. So, if I'm on the freeway l have to press it about every 3 minutes or I'm breathing California traffic fumes. Ridiculousness...

it was the double honk but fixed it with for-scan.

The steering wheel controls change the source and not the station

It changes your favorites/saved stations which can be from any source. Make all favorites radio stations and you’re set. Took me a bit to realize this

I never understood why people use the Auto fan setting. Every car I've owned it sucks so I've always just used the different fan speeds instead of auto

I used auto continuously for six years in my Acura. Seamless.

The cheap plastic throughout the interior that scratches and scuffs so easily, and the heat and air conditioning has a mind of it's own.

The soft top clamps sticking straight up, thus hitting my garage door in the first set position.

Mines nearly flawless and I use it daily. First used wired now been using wireless for a while.

Is your phone and vehicle software updated?
iPhone 14 pro here..

Not quite sure if it's really a featuer but.......How long it is taking to get one. Maybe the lack of cup holders (I went there, LOL). Still excited to get my ride some day.

Weird to me that so many hate the digital speedo. I *never* look at the analog one because there's a precise digital readout front and center versus the dark "nearest 20mph" needle off to the side.

Auto-startstop works fine on Bronco, not nearly as aggressive as my Chevy that shuts off as you creep forward. Bronco's charging system sucks anyway so ASS usually won't kick in. We had to add a battery tender just to keep FordPass working.

Thankfully they fixed how nav would get stuck in top-down view everytime I drove "off road" through a parking lot.

Still having issues with auto-up on driver's window.

Always asking if I want to go back into Eco instead of doing it automatically.

Now my *favorite* feature has to be that the auto-highbeam does a nice smooth fade in and out. My Chevy does instant on/off and it looks like I'm flashing people

Had to have my window switches replaced. They were intermittent.

The rattling subwoofer during some bass portions of music.

Not sure I understand your title about hands on the wheel, but…

Mine is the crazy climate control system that has a mind of its own. I would have been perfectly fine with something like this…

It’s a “rugged” offroad vehicle. Sometimes, less is more…

Man I miss that.
