Yes, I usually check, but I must have been distracted that day. I certainly intend to stay on top of it. So apparently the factory lugs and the aftermarket lugs are different. Yes, it is strange. Even after I was told I tried to sense it as I drove and felt nothing. I can only guess that while...

The dealership sent me a link for online feedback regarding my service experience. They replied soon after apologizing for the inconvenience and to confirm my new hub rings had already been ordered.

On Monday Nov. 17 I had my summer wheels and tires swapped off for my winter set. Seemingly all good with my Ford dealer delivering me the car when the work was complete. But when the driver came to give me the key she mentioned someone waved at her at a stoplight to tell her the passenger...

I just went out for an errand and checked the mileage in town. I’m at 11L/100 km. which is 25.6 mpg Imp. or 21.3 US. For the record I don’t think you save any money using premium. The modestly improved fuel economy is offset by the higher price of premium gas so it’s essentially a wash. You’re...

When I started using the higher octane something was different performance wise. It didn’t feel radically different, but there seemed to be a bit snappier performance overall and a bit better throttle response. Fuel economy did improve over time by a few miles per gallon, but again not...

I have a ‘24 Big Bend and around town I get 10.5-12.5 L/100 km. Thats 22.6-25.9 mpg, but thats Imperial gallons which are larger than US. In US terms thats 18.8-22’4 mpg. Oddly I haven’t really paid attention on the highway yet, but I saw 9.0 L/100 km. or about 31.3 Imp or 26.1 US mpg. I...

I wouldn’t get a pickup truck simply because I have zero need or justification for a pickup bed. It would be hauling around wasted space and extra weight for nothing.. If the Bronco Sport didn’t exist I might consider a Base 2dr. Bronco or a Mazda CX-30. Or if I went in a different direction...

I have a 2024 Big Bend and have no issues whatsoever with noise or rattling at any speed or under hard acceleration. Initially I used 87 octane without any issues and now I use 91 or 93 without issue. I do get better mileage with the higher octane.

Is Ford taking cues from Apple stores now? Although I’ve been using Apple products for twenty-five years I’ve never actually been to an Apple store.

Things I never had before I got my Bronco Sport Big Bend (Canadian variant), but I appreciate. - Rain sensing wipers - Automatic high beams - Blind spot alert - Rear view camera - Reversing sensor and reverse cross traffic alert - Heated seats - Remote start - Tire pressure sensors - Fuel...

My ‘24 Big Bend has rain sensing wipers. Part of the Convenience Package (or whatever package) I believe.

I don't understand. Whenever I hear the chime it sounds four or five times then stops. I've never heard it sound nonstop.

^^ I have 18x8 wheels with 35 offset on my Bronco Sport for the summer. For the winter I have the factory 18x7 with 37.5 offset wheels. So if you have 18x8.5 with 40 offset you should be fine. 40 is only 2.5mm less offset than factory and I had contemplated about putting 18x8.5 wheels for the...

So far my notion seems correct. If I don't turn things off hastily the chime doesn't sound.

Today I’ve been hyper aware of it and I just might have found a clue, as bizarre as it may sound. If I turn things off in a somewhat leisurely manner—put it in Park, pull handbrake, turn off music and turn off ignition—the chime doesn’t sound. Unfastening your seatbelt before or after turning...

For a year now I’ve been trying to understand why the interior chime sometimes sounds and sometimes doesn’t when I turn off the car. I put the car in park, pull the parking brake and with foot on the brake turn off the ignition. Then a chime sounds…sometimes. It doesn’t seem to be consistent...

Yes, the brown interior is very nice. And I, too, have never liked black or dark coloured wheels. More specifically I don’t like all black or all dark coloured wheels. The first black wheels I recall seeing were way back in the 70s or early ‘80s on a Porsche 911. But they weren’t all black, but...

These changes reflect the U.S. market. I’m curious to see the changes to the vehicles slated for the Canadian market as they’re not always the same. Sometimes we have equipment thats standard for us while optional south of the border and the reverse as well. I guess I’ll have to wait to see the...

The removal of some features and options looks like a cost cutting move, but cutting some of those things like universal garage door opener and wireless charging pad are puzzling because they’re likely popular and it really shouldn’t cost them much at the factory level. True a built-in remote...

Wholeheartedly agree!
