Crazy that people on a Bronco Sport forum would like Bronco Sports. Who woulda thunk?

It’s actually still in the shop. In 5 months of ownership it’s been in the shop for over a month and a half. It’s safe to say I am not planning on keeping it.

It’s more the customer service that is frustrating. They should be providing me a vehicle to use right now. Seeing the auto withdrawal for this months car payment for a car I don’t have was a pretty sour pill to swallow.

I considered that, but I’m not eager to get another Ford at the moment.

I’ve definitely been researching Lemon laws. They are almost at the “30 days out of service” requirement. If it’s not back with a good explanation within a week, I think I’m gonna have to go that route. I love the car, but being in the shop for 25% or the time of ownership for a brand new car...

So when this first popped up I just accepted it as growing pains, but now it’s back and I’m almost ready to make Ford buy it back. It started out with a couple warning messages about a powertrain malfunction a few months ago. I brought it into the shop, got a loaner and two weeks later they gave...

Modified and took damage. It also took several attempts

Agreed! This is a serious issue that Ford needs to address. I’m fine with recalls. Stuff like that happens with new vehicles. I’m not fine with issues that should be a recall that aren’t addressed. And what possible justification do they think they have for not covering it under warranty?

Yeah, I’m gonna get an inch or two of lift... in a couple years

I had that warning. I just got it back after being in the shop for two weeks to replace the rear drive unit. I don’t know if that can really tell you anything though, because it’s a pretty broad warning that could be from a wide range or issues with varying severity

It’s not scalping, it’s inflation. Prices aren’t ever coming back down to what they were before COVID. Right now accessories are out of stock, soon enough they will realize they can charge more and people will still buy them.

They are supposed to get it this Friday

I’m hoping it’s a fluke

I mentioned this a couple times in another thread, but I want to make it it’s own thread now that I know what’s going on. I had three warning lights pop up a few weeks back about a “powertrain malfunction” and “hill start assist warning”. I heard back today and they are replacing the rear drive...

That depends on how you define 4x4 which is entirely a matter of opinion. If you are wondering what is the “correct” term is, there isn’t one. It’s all marketing jargon. Gearheads will rant on forums all day about what is “true 4x4” as if their opinion is official, but it honestly doesn’t...

Just random. A couple warning lights popped up about a week ago saying there was something wrong with the powertrain. It was driving fine, but I brought it in to have them check it out anyway. I called today to see what was up, and they said they are waiting for a new differential and rear axel...

My complaint: My Badlands is in the shop at 460 miles waiting for a new rear differential. No timeline yet from Ford.

You won’t look like a dummy. I know the Badlands would leave a forester in the dust. You should have no problem keeping up, and might even be a bit better.

You have to respect the 10 inches of ground clearance though.
