I’m just curious if this is true, did the factory harness get replaced, or did they just try to repair it? I don’t like the idea of splicing factory cables.

Yes, Bronco Sport, Maverick, and Transit connect. I also work with an international truck dealer and they were having similar issues with the batteries and steps that cover the battery box being stolen. The manufacturer was shipping them missing these items.

Not sure if there is any truth to this, but I heard that because of shipping issues caused by Covid, ended up leaving many 21 vehicles and possibly some 22s sitting waiting to be shipped. While sitting, batteries were stolen from the vehicles not by just taking them out, but cutting the factory...

Sorry to hear about the troubles. I have a 22 badlands with just over 37k miles. It has been trouble free until last night when it started chugging and then blew a lot of white smoke. Noticed coolant level was low. Looks to be a head gasket. Getting it towed to a dealer now.

Sold. Thanks!!

Greetings all, I have a 22 BS Badlands stock height and recently put on a set of KO2's to replace my Falkens that were worn out. I have not found these to rub at all and look amazing on the vehicle. Most of my driving is on road and these are a little noisy and firm for me. 245 65 r17 LR D...

I have the same deflector and have experienced some false alerts. I also recall one or two prior to installing it. It has been awhile since the last alert, but I will bring it up next time I take in for service.

Coming from the Midwest and dealing with some snow and mud, I have had really good results with the Goodyear Duratrac. It seems to be a good in between all terrain tire. Fairly quiet at first but noise will increase as they get worn down. I think think The Duratrac is made in 245/70/17 in both...

I agree with the others, this is a casing separation. It can be caused by defect or an impact. Hard to tell without inspecting the inside, but most likely a warrantable condition.

Sorry, just to clarify, the manufacturer warranty only covers defects in workmanship and materials. If a tire fails due to a defect, the warranty would be prorated off of the tread remaining. This usually does not cover mechanical wear, road hazard, theft, fire, vandalism I have seen some...

Hi all, Oem tires do not come with any mileage warranty. Additionally, many tire manufacturers have changed from “mileage warranty” to “mileage expectancy” The oem tires have only a manufacturer’s defect warranty. This will only cover defects in the tire. It will not cover irregular wear, road...

I live California and have purchased many new cars out of state, all of which are required by Ca. to be smogged. I think it’s kind of silly as almost all new cars made are 50 state emissions legal
