  1. Tow Hook

    Pop open the little cover, and nuthin but blank steel. Is this part of the factory hitch?
  2. Tow Hook

    FWIW: I have a Heritage Limited, which is supposed to be basically a Badlands with the Heritage color scheme...2L, suspension, etc. And the Badlands (and not other models) has the provision for the screw-in hook behind that little cover in the rear bumper fascia. Guess what: They did NOT include...
  3. Radio Randomness

    I just now got a Ford email about a non-recall recall: Customer Satisfaction Program for Certain 2018-2024 Ford Vehicles With SYNC® 3 Building vehicles you can count on is one of our most important jobs. Which is why we've issued a Customer Satisfaction Program for some 2018-2024 Ford vehicles...
  4. Radio Randomness

    Thanks, for me the randomosity occurs even with no phone connections.
  5. Radio Randomness

    I know I'm in the minority, but I usually have all my audio OFF ... just me and my thoughts. So I turn off the audio (push the button). The random thing: Sometimes at key-on, the audio (radio) stays off...other times it fires back up again. Ok, I can just push the button again... but as a...

    Here's someone burning them off
  8. Vehicle Data Collection?

    At least the car tells me it's up to date after scanning for updates, even though it's 22251 not 23188.
  9. Vehicle Data Collection?

    Low...3500 in 1 year! And Sync is up to date. But I did find a couple data reporting options (sync & audio) that were on. I toggled them off, we'll see...
  10. Vehicle Data Collection?

    1. What's this all about? I can't find anything in Settings that addresses it. 2. Ford says they don't share data with insurers like GM does...but I remain skeptical when I see a message like this! 3. And the message keeps popping up every time I start a new trip, no matter I hit OK every time...
  11. 12 volt battery charge state detection recall coming out.

    Regarding auto start stop ... My 2023 with low miles wasn't working, with message "engine on due to battery charging". Tech charged the battery, ASS worked! He said drive more. But the next day, ASS not working again. Did the recall, figured that would fix it. Nope. Another visit, finally they...
  12. The new Recall is out now.

    That makes zero sense, sorry. The dealer is NOT Ford. Ford wants you to get it fixed, and the dealer wants to get paid for the repair. The dealer wouldn't be liable for the results of your inaction anyway.
  13. 12 volt battery charge state detection recall coming out.

    Apparently the pause was lifted 5/24...dealer did the work for me yesterday 5/28. Hoped it would fix the non-functioning stop-start, but no, and I STILL get the message "Engine on due to battery charging", and yes I put miles on it.
  14. The new Recall is out now.

    Too many threads on this recall! This thread answers my Q- yes the pause was lifted.: https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/5-23-2024-recall-24s24-on-hold-as-of-5-24-2024-hold-is-lifted.11399/ Mebbe I need a battery, I get the battery charging message even after long drives. But 3600...
