  1. 2023 Bronco Sport - hydroplaning on wet highway at 60 mph

    UPDATE - Oct 23, 2023 Dealership removed the lift kit and replaced the tires. I will not know until it rains again but so far, the vehicle drives as good as it did on dry pavement- maybe even more responsive turning the previous owner installed the lift kit himself but also installed 10 ply...

    Update - today, Oct 17, 2023, the service department says they did a front end alignment but cannot fix the castor or cambor because of the lift kit on the vehicle! I spoke to a sales manager and after a lengthy conversation, he said they will remove the lift kit ( I did not know was on the...

    Yes, tires are properly inflated. It rained again yesterday (not much but roads were wet) so I took it by the dealership.

I did look at my Toyo tires today and can feel the inside of the driver’s side tires are wearing more than the outside edge but the passenger side tires are wearing evenly.

  9. 2023 Bronco Sport - hydroplaning on wet highway at 60 mph

    I've had my Bronco Sport almost a month and love it, however we had a light rain for the first time in 3-4 months and I found the rear end would begin to slide out of my lane if I attempted to drive over 45-50 mph (even using lane assist).
