  1. Fordpass App 5.0 Launched

    I don't think the interface on ver 5.0 is an improvement. You can find total mileage under "service". I liked the old press and hold a little better than the new option for starting the vehicle.
  2. Map update question

    You get a specific license with a map update. It won't install on two vehicles.
  3. Do you want to keep the retro design on the next gen Bronco Sport?

    I had a 3rd gen Escape that I never liked the looks of. Gen 4 was worse so I wasn't gonna buy that. Ford introduced the Bronco Sport line and I loved it. The Bronco Sport kept me in a Ford. If they go modern in the future I'll be looking for something else unless modern becomes more boxy...
  4. The latest Sync®3 map will be available on or near May 13th, 2024.

    My Map update was free. This was my 2nd freebie and I'm sure it'll be my last.
  5. The latest Sync®3 map will be available on or near May 13th, 2024.

    I did both the sync and nav update manually. The sync update was complete after 11 minutes using a Samsung USB 3.1 C jump drive and the NAV update took about 40 minutes using the same jump drive.
  6. What did you Name your Bronco Sport?

    I do name my vehicles. I wasn't very original with the BS as I thought "Badlands" was good enough.
  7. Bug deflectors.

    Whether there is an advantage with regards to the number of bugs that hits the windshield depends upon the aerodynamics of the bug deflector. Some I've had do a pretty good job of deflecting bugs, others provide no benefit other than to prevent paint chips on the forward area of the hood. I...
  8. Hood: Anyone else have this happen ?

    When the hood gets to shaking majorly, I can't help but imagine the whole thing flying right off the car.
  9. HomeLink trouble

    I was able to program my homelink in the 22 Bronco today after putting a new battery in my remote opener. I just followed the instructions and everything worked. Previous to putting in the new battery my attempts at programming failed.
  10. Ford Protect Warranty.... Thoughts? Experience's?

    I began purchasing the Ford extended warranties about a decade ago. I've only used it on one vehicle, our Ford Escape, and the dealerships took care of us like they would have any other customer. I like the peace of mind it gives me that at least during the warranty period I'm not going to get...
  11. Least reliable cars of 2024.

    I take whatever CR says with a grain of salt. They have some significant bias that works its way into the results they publish. They're probably right about jeep...
  12. Bronco Sport, a Magnet for Auto Theft?

    I have a club that I will occasionally use. Usually while on a road trip.
  13. Gas mileage?

    I average about 25 mpg with my 22 badlands 2.0 ltr.
  14. Bronco Sport Windshield Integrity

    Rock chips are kind of a random thing. Most of the vehicles up where I live have cracked windshields. Generally speaking, we don't bother repairing them. My Bronco sport had windshield damage within a few months of owning it. Of our three EcoSports in the family, one has two or three hits to...
  15. Take a chance on an extended Mexico-Texas-Mexico trip?

    @JerryInMexico, I did some web searches to see what I could learn about your warranty coverage. My new car warranty and extended warranty indicate that the warranties are honored at any Ford dealer in the US or Canada... my car was purchased in the US. The best I could find on the topic was a...
  16. Which GOAT mode to use for snow

    I normally leave it in normal mode, but two days ago I returned to learn we'd had about 20 inches of snow and it was just too much for my daughter to plow with the atv or blow with the snow blower. She tried but we ended up with a mess. When she was driving us home from the airport she got...
  17. Ford switching to no-haggle sales on EVs

    Where I live the dealer doesn't haggle and I don't believe they ever have. You pay the sticker at the time your purchase it or order it, and get any incentives that Ford might be offering.
  18. Are you happy with your Bronco Sport? My wife told me last night that's our next ride

    My Badlands is trouble free so far. I learned to discount Consumer Report's reports on vehicles a long time ago. They seem to have some major bias for and against the various manufacturers. Their reports have never resembled my personal experiences with the various vehicles I've had.
  19. Price Protection Dealer Shenanigans

    When my Bronco Sport finally came in I used an x-plan and to do that they had to go off the new price which was a few thousand higher. So they figured out what I owed with the x-plan and then promised I'd get a check once they sent the paperwork in to Ford and Ford figured the price protection...
  20. Daytime Running Lights Sometimes Stay On After Shutdown

    It's happened to me twice so far where the daytime running lights have stayed on after I've parked, turned off, left the vehicle and locked it. Come back and it's still lit up.
