Update after two years I'm pretty sure it from the car wash I use every week...

I tow a 6'6"x10' trailer that weigh's 990 and a 1000-pound ATV. Half a tank of gas in the Bronco Sport Big Bend and never go above 60mph. Round trip is 460 miles. The tach averages around 1750 (see pic). I do use a small digital scale verifying 200-pound max on tongue. Premium fuel gets me 19.8...

Slid the Eskimo Quick Flip 1 (ice fish house) into the back, fit like a glove.

I use slippery mainly in town on the side streets which in Minnesota winter suck with hard compacted snow/ice. The max I had thus far in fresh snow was 6 inches with zero problems. If I had to, I really do think I could handle 10 inches of fresh snow, but I would be concerned about the buildup...

It has a dry, gritty feel to it. It seems to have been a one-time occurrence. I'm not finding any more fresh signs of it. Since NO ONE ELSE had the same issue, it will apparently be another mystery of life.

Yes. Touchless. I've been using same carwash for a year. I thought about it too being from the car wash maybe building up inside the hood and finally working its way out after a year.

It's all over under the hood. I checked the grill...nothing. I saved a sample.

Take a look. See what you think it could be. Seemed to get wet and then leak down from inside hood?

IT SURE IS!! I've got a spine fusion and still work as a driver with different vehicles all day and I have to turn and sit down in the seat and turn but with my Bronco Sport I can climb right in.

Getting close to 9K on the Bronco Sport, averaging 1K a month. It's done everything I'd hoped. I'm getting 24.0 mpg, it will pull a trailer with 1000 pounds weight in it, I like a lot about the inside, it's fun to drive, it has super traction in slippery conditions, excellent drainage on the...

My experience is slippery at slow speeds on ice. I deliberately stopped on ice one night where a couple people kept losing traction and had to back down a steep hill. A half dozen times I came to a complete stop and s l o w l y pulled ahead without any wheel slip felt. The AWD engagement was...

I didn't time it, but it couldn't have taken more than 5 mins. Kudos to Ford for the full-size spare (Big Bend), the jack and handle are actually superb in design, the lift points clearly marked. The acorn two-piece nuts are still original but I had a 'biter' socket with just in case to...

I agree with 'slippery' from our last ice storm here in Minnesota. I stopped on purpose 6 times on a steep hill where two different cars totally lost traction and had to back down the hill and try a different route. The Big Bend had absolutely zero hesitation or slip that I noticed all six times...

Update: I live in Minnesota and while this winter has been mild (compared to the last 5) yesterday we got a nasty, slick, snow fall move through making the roads bad. I've lived on a steep hill the past 40 years and my street is one of three in town that can get very ugly if the conditions are...

I was in slippery mode doing 40mph when my 'Spidey sense' went off and I thought I was feeling the wheels close to losing traction. I just kept decreasing my speed until it went away which was around 35mph. It was slick stuff. Even if I had been in my F150 in 4x4 I doubt I would have been going...

Yes I was in slippery mode.

I experienced the same yesterday in northern Minnesota. The roads were def bad and I could feel it too. This was also my first test with the Big Bend and although I was somewhat surprised it simply is not a F150 in 4x4. I kept my speed down.

Yup...that's it. Only happens in town low speed. Thanks brother.

I never use auto with the headlights and yet...I still see something going on up there with the lights. What is it?
