Can anyone tell me where the cabin pressure vent is and how to access it on my 2021 bronco sport?

Thanx, I am trying to locate the exhaust smell in the cab and want to check these
Dealer says the sport doesn't have them. Very good info.

Have they already checked for a cracked cat? There were a few people saying that was an issue.

They said they tested and check it twice. When the weather cooperates I'll crawl under there myself and look

You can check for proper operation yourself. Close a door to the first latch, stand with your ear near a taillight, then have someone push the door closed. The cabin is airtight enough that this will force air out of the vents in back. If working properly, they'll open to allow air out, then you'll hear them close. If you don't hear the vents closing then:
  1. The cabin isn't properly sealed; air is entering/exiting someplace other than the vents.
  2. The vents may be stuck open, or missing entirely.
NOTE: Be careful where and how hard you push to close the door. The skin is fairly thin aluminum to save weight, and you can put a dent it if you're not careful. I suggest pushing on the Securicode panel on the window frame just above the door handle.

The cabin air filter is inside the glovebox
