So notice a battery leak over the weekend. Decided to make an appointment to get it checked out. BRONCO is at 5,762 miles. (29% oil life)

So they are going to check out why it's leaking. They will call when it's ready cause they want to know why and this being the frist bronco coming in for service. I'm at the Bob Wondries Ford in Alabama, Ca

I did get the bumper to bumper and maintenance warranty. They also said they will change out the oil and do the whole inspection of breaks and tire rotation

I'll keep you guys updated

looks like they slathered too much gunk on the battery posts at assembly.

Looks like your boiling the acid. Make sure they check that your alternator isn't overworking itself.

Have faith in the diagnostics my brothers....
As I suspected, under normal driving we get a 7500 mile oil service life on the blend.
So,
I will be putting in full synthetic and likely be resetting to 100% at 2500 miles.
Or I'll spoil the Baby good and change its diapers at 7500 anyways :'P

So I got my bronco back later in the early afternoon. They replaced the battery, oil change, tire rotation, brake check, full inspection and top off all the fuilds.

Also I guess I I tore a cv shaft assembly so they ordered a other to replace it and will call me back to bring it in to replace.

Any ideas how the cv shaft was damaged?
