If you are handy with your Hands it actually pretty easy to replace yourself. My cousin husband works as a tech at a Ford dealer and can do them now in about 30-40 minutes. Also I'd you want to know what I did to stop the squeaky brake let me know I can explain that.

I have sold my 2021 bb with the same thing. I said fuck it and I changed out my rear brakes and rotors with better quality ones. But in the process when I got to the side that did the noise. And the piston was jammed up. Finally got it back to where it should be I never had that problem again.

I'm glad to here it was under warranty. I got rid of mine a month ago for a outback wilderness. Again to many problems. I found what the dealer called "seeping" of oil on the bottom of the transmission and something on the start of the drive shaft. Told me warranty repair isnt warranted yet...

Yea white only looks good if it can be clean. I remember when I first saw the blue I didn't care for it but I kept seeing them in person and it grew on me

I have the atw3 on the BB and I loved them except for the weight. I was excited for the atw4 then I saw the added weight and turned off. I can only imagine they will be great but the extra weight was a turn off

Nice I ended up getting that eye popping blue from subaru! I will probably hang around to and see some of the cool builds coming out

The baby bronco is being traded in. I've loved and hated it. It got me to many cool places and caused many head aches along the way. It is a shame for quality is not there. It's climbed, swam, drifted in sand a bit. But the problems outweigh the positives. From 3 water pumps, seeping oil from...

I am currently trading mine in for a 2022 outback wilderness. I will have a sad post later with photos of the trip with her?

True it won't. But I personally do not agree with such a high mileage count for the fluid change in general. There are many logical reason on why to change it sooner than 150k in general. Especially if the vehicle is lift or heavier tires. Which people do just for aesthetic as well.

I will say in regards to Fords private testing. Not trying to knock them or any company who do the tests. But specific tests vehicles where they are nitpicked throughout its building process are different from everything rolling out of the assembly line as fast as possible to get to the consumer...

I don't believe the 150k fluid change for the trans anyways. But I'm more worries about after the warranty is done. I plan on waiting till I'm 1000 miles from warranty to trade it in. If I can't trust this thing to not blow water pumps and start leaking in 2 other area. What is going to be wrong...

Dealer expedited it for me told me seeping is expected at 43k but it's not leaking leaking where a warranty would be approved for repair

Dealer just called were able to expedite it for me. "It's seeping not leaking and that the warranty wouldn't be approved until it does". In short terms

Yes I had the dealer do it last time. And with my luck on water pumps I'm pretty active at checking stuff since I'm on my 3rd pump.

I'm sorry I should have made more clear. The appointment is for tomorrow 8/9. I have not had the trans fluid changed yet. As much as I want to believe that someone just made a mess I find it unlikely as when it comes to a straight oil change the skid plate doesn't need to come off and there has...
