Can I really be the only one?

I’ve noticed more paint chips on this vehicle….however, I have far and away paid more attention to this vehicle. This is my first Brand New Car. And by far my most cared for car. So I admit I have paid more attention to the little things than I ever have before.
maybe others of us are in the same boat without realizing.

I handwash my bronco sport so I noticed the paint chips too. Not sure where yours is chipping. A lot of bronco sports have the paint chips by the front headlights where it is rubbing. My dealer wouldn’t do anything about it so I ended up just paying out of pocket to get it fixed. My collision guy said he has seen a bunch of them rubbing there. Mine was the first one he had fixed about a year ago. I haven’t noticed any more paint chips other than those by the headlights. Other than that LOVE my sport!

I have 33,000 plus miles on my 2021 Big bend and I have had zero issues outside of a couple recall notices. And frankly recall notices aren't special to this car, it happens to all of them. My windshield hasn't cracked 6 times, i don't tail gate either. The brake moan isn't actually a real problem for the 12 feet per week that i actually back up. I accepted the fact that the car no longer came with an engine cover and bought my own. My water pump is fine, I also don't drive in sport mode full time so no added stress or extra RMPs for nothing. Oh, and I average 30 mpg consistently with bigger tires and a lift kit. What am I doing wrong?

I tell people all the time, when things work as advertised no one goes on the internet to right a review or look for help on forums. So when you go online and look for reviews you’re going to get 80% negative comments. For example you go online and see 10,000 complaints, take in consideration ford has sold 256,733 Bronco Sports since 2021 to end of 2023. Does it suck to be one with a problem? Yes but there are more without then with.

I had my 22 OBX one year & 7200 miles. No issues or problems at all. It was one of, if not the best assembled vehicles I've owned(except for missing pax side under dash insulation panel which dealer placed under warranty). My issue was simply that I didn't like the way the 3cyl shuddered when in 2 cyl mode under low power required conditions. It was working exactly the way it was supposed to. (yes, sport mode canceled it, but was too sensitive in traffic for me).
And I really wanted another Mustang .

We drove our '22 Big Bend off the lot 0n 31Jan2022. The first 12,000 miles were issue free. Then with no warning, the instrument cluster went dark. Dealer had it 3 weeks and thoroughly tested all electrical components and found that the cluster was bad. So far, 1 year and 12,000 more miles down the road that issue hasn't recurred. However, 2 weeks ago I took her in for a routine oil and filter change and was told the water pump was leaking through the weep hole. Dealer had the sport for 3 days. In both incidents the dealer provided us with a loaner. In between these issues we've driven our Bronco Sport on several long trips in summer and winter conditions and she performed great. In spite of those inconveniences we love her. Yeah, she moans occasionally backing up but it isn't an issue for us. Once ford figures out what's the real problem I'll get it fixed. And if they never do, well then I'll wait until she needs a brake overhaul and decide what to do then. Oh, and windshield chips, we've been lucky so far. One time a marble sized rock came straight at me and I thought sure it was gonna crack the glass as it sounded like a gunshot! It didn't! Since I first posted on the forum I've raved about my Bronco Sport. Today, nothings changed.
