As you know transmissions have had solenoids for years, unfortunately it's not uncommon for solenoids to go bad. Hopefully one or both of your warranties are still in effect.
As inconvient as it is, get Ford to fix it.
These days you cant really go wrong with any of the top brand tires.
Interesting that there would be a balancing issue with the Falken Wildpeak AT3's as they are the factory OEM tire option for the BS Badlands, First Edition and Heritage Limited.
Other people on the board have installed them...
By loose do you mean the swaybar link attachment hardware (2 nuts) or the Rough Country upper sway bar link bracket(s) which have 2 bolts that attach the bracket to each strut.
If the attachment hardware is loose it would seem that it could be re-torqued to spec and you would be on your way. I...
Both vehicles were able to do the climb and decent, in the BS it looked a bit easier.
Most people will never do that as they would be afraid of potentially damaging their vehicle.
That Heritage Limited was/is pricey, depending where you live it would be over 50K really quick by the time you...
Good learning experience.
I take mine to the dealer for service, I've changed oil for years, don't want to lay on the ground anymore or schlep the used oil and filter to the parts store.
If your auto start stop is functioning correctly it's basically transparent. Mine works so well I glance at the tach to see that that the engine did shut off, and the split second I move my foot off the brake I'm gone. If I want or need to turn it off I just press the button, no big deal.
Ford is loosing their a**es on EV's, they built to many and can't sell them. The Mach E is a decent deal if your into it, the Lightning is useless unless using it as a grocery getter or commuter, you'd be much better off with a Maverick hybrid.
Who was maintaining the vehicle? While it is true some here have had early transmission failure, It would seem that transmission clutch wear would have been possibly noticed when changing the fluid during service in the warranty period and could have been addressed. Misfire is an issue that can...
Is your BS still under warranty?, if so I would take it in to the dealer and have them scan it to see what is causing the lighting fault and correcting it. While science projects can be fun, if you have any warranty left take advantage of it before it runs out.
Ive never spilled a beer using mine.
Maybe you need to review how to use it, its not a big deal.

Could be as simple as bad gas. Try another brand of premium 93 octane that is different than what you typically run and do an Italian tune up and do a few hard runs on the hiway to see if it clears up the issue.
It opens a can if worms anytime somebody wants to know whats the best of anything.
There are as many opinions as people have belly buttons. People typically choose between BF Goodrich, Falken, Toyo, Nitto, General and lately Goodyear.
I am currently running Falken Rubriteks in the 245 65r 17...
In my hood just a random price check for a 4 wheel alignment for a BS Badlands at Firestone is $109.99, that's the internet starting price for a 12000 mile 1 year alignment, the next tier is 36000 mile 3 year alignment starting from $189.99 internet price and the top tier lifetime alignment...
Labor is pricey these days, you can try calling other shops for comparisons but you seem comfortable with the shop you are currently working with which is definitely worth something. Are you going with larger tires as well at this time or do you already have them?
We'll all be waiting for your...
I don't think Ford would/will make the changes needed for me to purchase another Bronco Sport unless they are able to up the towing capacity into the neighborhood of what the Maveric can tow..
I am one and done, but I did start with a Badlands.
