  1. Missing Black Diamond/Wildtrack Trims

    I feel being the first year of the Sport, Ford wants to see what the reaction is, sometimes when you bring a new product to market, you can guess the market reaction, but there's no way to know for sure. From my conversation with the dealership, from what they are seeing in interest, they are...
  2. B&O Sound System Review?

    To be honest, they seem similar. No extra options compared to the Sony system, but the sound field seems better. I need to get the Bronco on the commute action for full enjoyment to give a detailed explanation. but in preliminary tinkering, the B&O definitely has more bass punch than the Sony...
  3. Dealer mistakenly sells man a Bronco Sport display model then demands its return

    its a good point, and also why my dealer took the opportunity to show off mine in the showroom till I could pick it up and they managed to get some sales from it being there.
  4. Dealer mistakenly sells man a Bronco Sport display model then demands its return

    Well its accountability. Ford has their consequences for violation of policy. But now they got a double whammy on their hands, punishment from Ford, and with the attempted correction, the public too. I still feel there could have been a better way to have handled their mistake and saved face...
  5. B&O Sound System Review?

    At first I was a little underwhelmed by it, but then I went into the sound settings, turned on surround and tweaked the EQ and its actually pretty good. Marginal improvement over the Sony system in my Escape
  6. Negotiated Price vs MSRP

    I used my X-plan and managed to save $2000 and more with the extra fees being taken out. Also managed to haggle an extra $750 with my trade in. So I feel I did pretty good here. Talking to the dealer though, and I do have a good relationship with them. There's not much movement to be had on the...
  7. Shame on them for price gouging

    ahh yes, the price sounds about right for a fully loaded Badlands here in Canada. Now you know why we didnt get the first edition as that would put you in the 50k range easily
  8. Dealer mistakenly sells man a Bronco Sport display model then demands its return

    well sounds like the sales manager might be looking for a new job. That being said, it really does show in how much demand the Sport it seeing. And while I understand the purpose of the display models, seriously would you turn down a cash in hand car buyer? Glad this had a happy ending.The...
  9. Bronco ForScan Thread

    I took a look at the 2020 Escape Forscan thread and central configuration is present for other modules. I noticed the IPC module asbuilt code list is very short for the sport. 11 blocks of 2 items in each... There is a possibility there is other central configurations, but may have to wait for...
  10. Bronco ForScan Thread

    not seeing this format in the backup of the BdyCM... Block 12 726GCG1000012310487 726GCG205021200025C 726GCG39B500000002D 726GCG4000043 It'll have to wait till I plug the laptop in again for the proper format, but if I am reading this backup right, the first line under block 12 is not a match...
  11. Bronco ForScan Thread

    Got our Sport last night! yay! Plugged in Forscan this morning! Saved the profile for my Bronco Sport Outer Banks and backed up all my factory module configurations. The good news. The only module using central configuration is the Sync module. Within this I was able to enable the climate...
  12. Selling Like Hot Cakes !

    Lol, couldn't get our schedule to line up to get the deal finalized. I did managed to get a deal, x-plan and some haggling on our trade in and some bonus goodies. Believe me it was killing me knowing it was there and just couldn't get the time to make it happen till tonight! Sidenote, they had...
  13. Selling Like Hot Cakes !

    When I initially made the reservation and special order at my dealer last fall, they weren't overly excited at the time. But since it arrived on Thursday last week, its been in the showroom under lock and key and I was chatting with them over the weekend finalizing the details now they have at...
  14. Convince a city guy into a bronco sport

    The Sport is a good choice if you want to keep fuel efficiency in mind, the Ranger and Explorer both would have higher fuel consumption, but loads more Cargo room internally. But with the roof racks, you could easily get a cargo carrier or a small trailer for additional cargo space. I have a few...
  15. Is everyone's fordpass remote start/lock/unlock feature down right now?

    one thing to keep in mind is that the fordpass app connects to the vehicle via cellular networks. so if your car is say in a basement parking garage with poor cell reception, fordpass remote start will not work unfortunately. Same goes if the cell network is having issues, if its down, no worky...
  16. Interior Fuse Block Access.

    Thanks for this!!! It will come in handy to hardwire my dashcam. I have it similarly hardwired in my Escape already and will have to redo it for the Sport when I get delivery this week!
  17. Apple CarPlay - "Download Has Failed" message

    Sadly this was the one real miss giving sync 3.4 to the Bronco Sport instead of Sync 4 like the big Bronco will get. Sync 4 will support wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto where the 3 series lacks this function. The OB has the wireless charging mat, but if you want to use carplay or AA (I...
  18. After a good 250 mile drive today, some thoughts.

    My Escape as ACC, and has the exact same issue. I get a warning message when the slush builds up on the sensor that "sensor blocked, auto-braking disabled". Studies have shown that cruise control is actually dangerous in poor weather conditions because a loss of traction (pooled water or ice)...
  19. Bronco ForScan Thread

    Indeed the challenge with some of the missing features is the hardware involved with some of them. as for the GOAT modes, yes, the advanced 4x4 drivetrain and cameras would need to be added for them to work as they are obviously not present on the lower trims.. Some of the more minor features...
  20. Bronco ForScan Thread

    its not all too complicated as long as you do your research first before you go mucking around with settings. you can seriously mess up the car if you change the wrong thing. For the beginner, I would wait till the more experienced users of Forscan get some of the details and then post tutorials...
