On my BS, if it is not running or if I started it remotely, but have not hit the start button yet, I can freely move the wipers by hand up or down the windshield. Almost no resistance at all. Never had another car that did that. I have had others say this is not good for the wiper assy., but...

No Logo, but this is what I bought for my car - it has been great. Very rugged and looks great...

The plug is on the down side when up on ramps - so at least the pan is well drained. My car is a 1.5 with the metal pan - not sure about the other models.

The button for turning on lane assist is on the end of the turn signal stalk. Maybe you accidentally turned it on.

I use composite plastic ramps (which are light) - and just a socket wrench. The BS goes up my ramps without any drama. Once you do it a few times, the oil change is pretty quick (just all those damn belly pan screws). My 1.5 has a metal pan and metal drain plug - did not know they use a plastic...

My FordPass App stopped working this week (could not start my car for a few days) - there was an update on the Android Play store for the App, I installed it and now the App is working again. The FordPass App looks different (different Icon on my phone). Maybe the old App is not working anymore...

Maybe I can help give you a point of reference. I have a Big Bend 1.5 - for 2 years now. I have a 70 mile round trip commute (half of yours - been doing it 15 years) - plus have to drop off and pick up kids before and after. My commute (Cleveland Area) is around 2/3 highway and 1/3 downtown...

2022 - here check out this link for example: https://ogattiparts.net/shop/engine-kits/1-5l-engines/brand-new-oem-timing-chain-kit-1-5l-dragon-2019-2022-6-pieces-escapebronco-og-60-1-5l-6/

I have an Area 51 - and like the color, but there are now 4 other Bronco Sports in my parking lot at work and they are all Area 51. So maybe it is time to offer some new colors. I keep walking up to the wrong car...

My owners manual does not have a page that looks like that one - it does not mention changing a timing belt anywhere. From my research, the 1.5 Dragon in the Bronco Sport has a timing chain. There are other versions of the 3 cylinder that have belts, but not the one in the Bronco Sport. My...

I have not rode any of the newer Triumphs yet (since they re-organized) - maybe will buy one when my kids are out of the house. I am guessing they don't leak as much oil as the old ones...;)

I have a 69 Triumph Trident 750cc three cylinder motorcycle that I have had for almost 40 years - one of the better sounding cycles of it's era. I don't run my Bronco sport very hard - mostly commuting for my 70 mile round trip to work - but every now and then if I have to get on it, I can hear...

Not saying 2 days is acceptable, but I wonder if some of the delay is caused by the BS being an AWD vehicle. The manual says you can tow them for short distances at low speeds on all four wheels, but otherwise recommends towing it with all four wheels off the ground on a trailer. So this may...

I read mine cover to cover when I got the car. The most interesting part I found was fail-safe cooling - where the engine can run for extended distances with no coolant. The engine will switch to alternating cylinder operation and the disabled cylinder will pump in air to cool the engine. See...

The Big Bend used to come standard with Fog Lights. At some point, they stopped including them as standard, but they still appeared on the window stickers of many cars, despite the cars not having them installed. My car is one of them. My Big Bend is pretty basic - does not have any extra...

Just received this letter from Ford today. I did not complain to them about this issue, it was unsolicited by me. So I would imagine others will be getting this letter. My Big Bend says that it should have fog lights on it's window sticker, but did not come with them (along with most of the...

I am saying that cooler air is more dense and you can extract more power from it. For a given volume of air that you push into your cylinder, it will not be as dense with air molecules at a higher temperature. The air is more dense (for a given volume) when it is cooler. This is why you can...

On older cars (many old Saabs) I have replaced Intercoolers with larger ones and picked up a lot of horsepower. Keep in mind the main reason you want cooler air is not because of overheating - it is because cooler air is more dense and packs more air molecules per square inch of area into your...

As a nearly 60 year individual, I can tell you that since the beginning of cars, they always market the cars to younger people. You can sell a younger image car to an older person, but you can't sell an older image car to a younger person (or many older people either) ;)

I have had a lot of cars over the years, and cannot remember having one put out this much brake dust. They do not seem to be a high quality pad. I have used ceramics on several other cars and they have working pretty well. I do have a 70 mile round trip commute every day and am dropping off and...
