Its not missing. You just don't get one. End this thread!!!!
But if you open hood and its not there then isn't it missing? Seems logical to me.

and if you put a cover on it, it may void the warranty

I've heard some funny bs things lately, but that right there is hilarious.
OMG! I added a license plate surround to my car! Will Ford void my warrenty? GASP!:oops:

They probably think a yahoo will add the cover with the wrong screws which will then get thrown into the engine somehow and blow the whole thing up…… or same yahoo will hook it wrong, open the hood and the engine cover will come flying out (with a rat attached eating it) and hit said yahoo in the face. :crackup:

I talked to my salesman at the dealer. The service/parts manager called Ford. My salesman had received several complaints about the cover. according to him, Ford said that they are no longer shipping 1.5L cars cars with the cover, and if you put a cover on it, it may void the warranty. I'm not sure I buy that. I think that Ford is just getting cheap, or maybe they're have heating problems
If that were the case, then they would have to recall all of the Bronco Sports that they put engine covers on before they stopped putting them on, so that they could take them off.

Well how would they know an engine cover was installed after purchase , would the dealer even care or look into it , because of some issue ?

As far as a missing passenger side under body panel , they cheeped out on that one for the BL & FE , because they knew those owner would just rip them off with aggressive 4x4 travel . the only reason there is anything on the Drivers side is to protect all the Fuel system components . Us lower trim (;) ) owners have the sound deadening & insulation value of the Passenger side underbody panel , because we only drive on well paved roads & only on sunny dry days:cwl:

If you have an engine cover and the build date is past the date they removed the engine cover. That would be enough Ford needs.

Actually they would know. When i was going around with my dealer about the cover, They were able to print out a list of everything on my car. One line said "Less engine cover!"

Cross out 'less' and put in 'missing'...
