Engine Cover Badlands 2.0 missing

[Desert Bronco.]

I just took delivery of the vehicle and popped open the hood and NO plastic engine cover that sits on top. Is the car missing the cover, should I use my ford pass points to purchase it and is there a part # number? What have other forum members done?

Is the car missing the cover...

Doesn't come with one anymore.

...should I use my ford pass points to purchase it ...

That's up to you. I wouldn't be bothered by it but that's just me.

Interesting. You would think for the highest trim level of the BL you would at least get that.

Ford dropped the ball on that one. I’ve watched the ice melt on my hood and I have the coveted cover. I always get a perfect pattern of the engine cover.
Looks like way more heat right above my cover so without one I’d be thinking about paint damage overtime.
I read that covers may not be available at all in the near future.
I’d install hood insulation. Covering the whole underside of the hood would be better for a little faster cold morning warm up I’d bet.
But without anything if I was sitting in traffic in say Florida or Texas in the hot summer I’d be somewhat concerned about my hood paint after three or four years.

Ok, another item on the mod list...

My Mach-E didn't come with an engine cover either.

That really depends on when the car was built. BL after Feb 1st no more engine covers. If it was built prior, you should demand it be replaced.

Can you order hood insulation from Ford? Or is there something you recommend? Thanks

I see what you did there...

I ordered the hood insulator through my dealer but they can be found online. The install could not be simpler.

Great, thanks, did you order for a 2021? I'm assuming it will work for both model years, and does it come with the push clips for install?
Thanks again

Just wondering how did you even know to think one would be missing?

Or rather if you just it looked at your engine and it didn't have a cover on it if something else didn't already put that in your mind would it just look like an engine?

To The Forum moderators why are there multiple posts about the same thing?
Redundant maybe better to post them back to back?!

The bulletin about this was dated for the 1st. But I don't think any '22s have been built with an engine cover, maybe the first batch. Ford is still trying to source them and has them in the parts catalog so you can order one if it really bothers you that much. Might take a while to get it, or maybe never.

Our '22 Badlands was built mid-December. No engine cover. Our '21 Badlands has it....

I just told the parts guy what I was looking for and he ordered. All the clips are integrated into the insulator. No tools required.

Fords used to come with both the trim cover and underhood insulation
