Call Ford. FoMoCo and talk to them about your issue. Ask for financial assistance on the repair. This is basically after the fact, your warranty is over. They will either pay for parts or labor or take care of the entire repair? It’s predicted on your customer score; everyone starts with 100...

The car was fixed at the local Ford dealer. I opened up a FAR (financial assistance request) with Ford and the latch was replaced free of cost. Ford picked up the parts and labor cost. My customer score was 92/100 so it’s a high scours. FMC looks at where the car was purchased, service records...

My 2022 Bronco Sport BL will not release the rear lift gate? I have just under 60,000 miles. I’ve tried opening it three ways, key fob, manually pushing the button on the exterior of the door and pushing the button on the interior front dash. I can hear a small noise but it won’t release. I’ve...

both made in Hermosillo Mexico? Same day? Avoid a Friday build? Also a Monday build? Thursday’s a pre-weekend day, so avoid Thursday?

Get a Badlands if you need to tow. I have a Badlands with tow package, trailer hitch, block heater and o added BFG Trail Terrain in a 235 size after 22k miles. I also bought the roof racks from Amazon. I gave BSM and adaptive cruise control stuff.

search for this below. I bought one several years ago and it’s fine. It fits very tight inside the arm rest so it’s kind of a pain to lift it out. You might want to look at another brand for that reason? They may have changed the mold since then? Other than the tight fit it’s fine overall, I...

i just got my vehicle back from the shop last Friday. It took the shop 3 months to fix it since they were fighting with the insurance company over the repairs. My body shop won since I intervened and made myself the squeaky wheel and was relentless in having them fix the vehicl. They honestly...

That’s a lot of work! How much were the parts altogether 7k? Then your time if you had to pay someone instead. Looking at the damage and What was torn down I would say that was a $18k repair If you took it into a body shop.

So I just had the transmission fluid changed on my Badlands at 50,500 miles and it was very dark and dirty. The dealer used a cleaner and an extra 4 quarts of fluid to flush out the system. he then added 4 quarts of fluid. They gave me a huge break on the price since he had said that I could go...

I got side swipped at 15mph and the damage is roughly $6k for some minor damage. Seems like a lot, but luckily the insurance covers it. there are a lot of small parts on the vehicle and what I would consider as a $2k - $3k worth of damage is much more. I’m guessing all the plastic on the vehicle...

The 4 cylinder seems reliable so far. City mileage is around 16-19mpg depending on traffic. The price of the Badlands was a lot, but I intend to keep it for 15-20 years. So unless there’s major service involved it won’t get sold.

The low resistance tires start with 8/32” with tread. The tread indicator is at 2/32” so you have 6/32” of overall depth. With a front wheel drive vehicle there is greater wheel on the front tires. So you’re replacing tires sooner. You’re getting better gas mileage since there’s less rubber on...

I’m assuming you have the 2.0 liter engine and in mixed highway driving at the lower end you are getting 18mpg. So it’s in the realm with city stop and go I’ll get 16- 18mpg city the auto start and stop is on, but it seems that it only turns off the engine when you have a fully charged battery...

I’m in California and I use 87 octane regular from Costco. The summer blend is costing me 2-3 mpg. I’m thinking if I ran 91 octane it would be an extra 1+ mpg Most of the owners seems to run 91-93 octane with the smaller 4 cylinder engine which gets 3-4mpg better. If you total the...

I’m wondering what the city mpg is by itself? Ford inflates the numbers by putting 1/2 worn tires on the new vehicles. They are low rolling resistance tires because most of the tread I already removed. at 3/32” the tires should be changed. So that leaves 5/32” of actual use. If you add back...

I can tow a 12 foot 2,000-3,000 pound enclosed trailer and on the freeway driving 55 mph I would get around just under 18mpg, if I religiously drove it keeping the rpms down. The three cylinder was too small of an engine and the difference in the horsepower and quality of the motor was apparent...

I’m not caught up in LA traffic where it’s heavy traffic. Just lights and wait times otherwise driving slowly with light to moderate accelerations with the intent to get good gas mileage. Yes the tires are 235 65R17? Bf Goodrich trail terrains with the higher load rating. I should check the...

I don’t drive Uber anymore, I stopped driving Uber 9 months ago., so there’s no dead weight or deadbeat passenger.

I don’t have a heavy foot, I don’t drive Uber and traffic isn’t heavy, just lights every 5 blocks. I run in economy mode and 87 octane. The tires 🛞are about 2 pounds heavier and one size up so it shouldn’t be too big of a hit on the mpg.

I have a 2022 bronco sport badlands, 2.0 liter 4 cylinder with BF Goodrich Trail Terrains (6ply tires) I now have 45,000 miles on the vehicle and after changing from the stock Pirelli Scorpions, which were junk tires, my gas mileage dropped by three miles. i routinely got 21-22 city and 26-29...
