    12 volt battery charge state detection recall coming out.

    This is interesting and thanks for the information. I have a 2021 Badlands and never encountered battery issues or the other gremlins reported on this recall, and it sits a lot between uses, often a week or two. I'm wondering if this really applies across all vehicles or just that they cannot...

    I cannot stop driving this thing! How about you?

    Guess I better catch up! I just turned 15K on my 2021 BL that I have had for 2.5 years. 6K of that has been two trips to Yellowstone/Gran Teton.

    Keeping your Bronco Sport how long?

    I generally keep vehicles a long long time. Glad I got 2021 Badlands trim which has avoided a lot of issues raised in this forum re 3-cylinder engine on other trims. Anyway, mine has been great. 15,000 miles and only oil changes and tire rotations. However, still has very high resale/trade-in...

    K02’s just installed

    Mine came stock with Pirelli Scorpion ATR tires. Maybe these are specific for Badlands trim? They've been great...so far. But I do like the beefier look of the Goodrich.

    PSA Video: This is Why You Never Run Extended Oil Change Intervals on The Ford Ecoboost Engines!

    Oil changes are not wallet busters. Frequency adds to engine long life. But always good to know that it is rated to go longer.

    What did you own before your Bronco Sport?

    2004 Porsche Cayenne S. Loved it. High cost to maintain and repair once it got over 150,000 miles.

    Roof top light bar

    Anyone really look at the instruction manual? It likes like the only work required is on the driver's A pillar, driver's roof rail, driver dash, etc. Who in god's name do they require a bunch of rear panel removal, etc.?

    Badlands vs the other trims?

    All trims are 4WD capable, but I chose the BL for several reasons: 1) 4-cylinder turbo engine (just cannot wrap my mind around a 3-cyl) 2) Rides higher than the other trims 3) Two more GOAT modes and other extra off-road features 4) BL trim owners with the BL trims are the only ones invited to...

    More Evidence of FoMoCo Tightening the Screws on Dealerships.

    My salesman was great. MSRP price clear. Great communication. However, it was the annoying meeting with the "finance manger" and his efforts to sell me extended warranties, etc. Him: You need these extended warranty programs. Me: You mean what I'm buying is a piece of crap that Ford won't stand...

    Should I switch to premium fuel?

    Use the Eco GOAT mode more often

    How well made is your Bronco Sport?

    I'm very satisfied, but: 1. Easily scratched plastic interior. 2. The piano black plastic trim pieces on the exterior window pillars, which easily get small swirl scratches despite using the softest of towels. 3. Mine came with a defect in the zippered pocket on the back of the driver's seat...

    New 21 OB vs Used 21 BL, Decisions, decisions.

    Switch to Badlands. There have been some problems reported with the 3-cyl. engine and I think a couple recalls. Not only more power, but you get 7 GOAT modes, two more than OB. BL models also sit slightly higher. And only BS BL owners get to go to the Bronco Off-Roadeo (search forums).
