  2. Recall : Even the new design can crack. Recall expanded.

    This is as much as they shared, as quoted above:
  3. Recall : Even the new design can crack. Recall expanded.

    My sources are Ford's filings with NHTSA, linked above.
  4. Recall : Even the new design can crack. Recall expanded.

    Basically, yeah. They revised the fuel injectors, ending in revision code -BC instead of -BB. They believed that these revised injectors would prevent the leaks that led to recall 22S73. For vehicles built with the old injectors, they provided an engine control software (ECU) update that...
  5. Which Keyless Entry Keypad to get?

    TL;DR: if your factory key fob has the button for remote start, you choose that option. Otherwise, choose the option without remote start. Perimeter Plus does not change this. In your case, you do not have factory remote start, so choose the option without. Do note that keypad setup will...
  6. Deer collision protection for the Bronco Sport.

    Don't veer for deer! https://dnr.illinois.gov/press-release.25587.html
  7. Ford Bronco Sport Extended Warranty at $25 over Cost!

    Newly enacted California state law regulating who may sell an extended warranty in California, that's what's changed. More paperwork and more expense to deal with the state; as of now, Granger has not taken the steps to sell under that law. Note that the address provided need not be your...
  8. water spitting up to the windshield

    Rear camera washer, if present, is activated with the rear windshield washer. Pull back (towards you) for the front windshield, push forward (toward the dash) for the rear windshield, and the rear camera sprayer if equipped.
  9. 1.5 Engine very slow to warm up.

    True, true. If you're buying off the lot in those 12 states, there's very little chance of having the PTC heater. If you're going to order anything below a Badlands/Heritage Limited, you may want to have the dealer add it to the order anyway. It's a no charge option in those 38 states, but...
  10. Why Dragon name for engine?

    Dragon (1.5L 3 cyl EB) is built at Chihuahua Engine Plant in Mexico, whereas the older 1.5L 4 cyl EB came from Romania to NA.
  11. 1.5 Engine very slow to warm up.

    Standard with the 1.5L EB in vehicles originally sold to dealers in 38/50 states, not included in the other 12 states that are deemed by Ford to be "warm enough". If equipped, it should be called out on the window sticker. Note that in those 12 states, you can add it to your custom retail...
  12. Why Dragon name for engine?

    Hermosillo sources the 1.5L EB "Dragon" from Chihuahua Engine Plant for Bronco Sport, same with Louisville Assembly for Escape. The older 4 cylinder 1.5L EB did come from Romania for US-built Escape, etc. You should be able to find a label on the side of the engine with the serial number and...
  13. Swollen Nuts?

    See Car & Driver's article about Ford's horrible lug nuts. Experienced this myself, including having to get a half size socket to remove swollen and chewed up lug nuts, and switched multiple Fords over to McGard lug nuts...
  14. Highway Robbery

    This one? If so, that's a Bronco, not Bronco Sport, MSRP $46,130. VIN starts in '1', indicating US production (Bronco, Michigan Assembly). BS is '3' for Mexico. No idea what those are usually going for, but production has been nonexistent for the last 6 weeks due to UAW activity...
  15. Seems to be a lot of battery issues on BS models

    Who said they were happy or okay with any of this? If you think that's bad, Costco's Interstate Battery warranty is now 36 months prorated. They changed it this past summer from 36 months non-prorated. If it dies at 30 months, you only get ~17% toward a new one. Used to be easy to find a...
  16. Seems to be a lot of battery issues on BS models

    New batteries are typically only warrantied for 36 months these days (at least in the US)... Only follows that the factory battery would be the same (or worse).
  17. Seems to be a lot of battery issues on BS models

    AGM is BAGM-48H6-760. BEF is "enhanced flooded lead acid".
  18. Tom Tom

  19. Possible to Add One Touch Up/Down Window Controls??

    Outer Banks and Badlands get 1-touch up/down. That includes Heritage Limited and First Edition as they're based on Badlands. All others only get 1-touch down on the driver door.
