I searched a bunch of different combinations and can't find anything specific to the Bronco Sport. Stupid me lost my parking tag in between the dash and windshield. Before I realized it, I got another one thinking I might have lost it somewhere until I saw the second one slide down the dash and disappear before I could grab it....I feel so dumb....

1. Has this happened to anyone else?
2. How do you get it out?
3. Is there something that could be put there to prevent this?

Maybe use some compressed air. Blow it along the edge of the windshield.

Is it visible from the outside looking at the dash?

Print this out and tape it to your windshield just above the gap.

Seriously, I would get one of those plastic ID holders, put the parking tag in it, and hang it from the mirror when you need to display it.

its not visible at all, its a black hold between the windshield and dash..lol...I just don't know if it'll affect anything (like getting stuck on some moving part back there).

I am going to try to stuff some weatherstripping in that gap...this is nuts!

Like I said above, I am wondering if any movingparts behind the dash will get stuck now... I am so mad at my dummy self...

I don't have anything to add here but your post reminds me of Tommy Boy when the M&M's roll into the dash and Tommy tells Richard he thinks he'll be ok because of the thin candy shell lol.

My windshield shade screen kept falling into that groove between the dash and the windshield so I bought a length of black 1/2" fuel line from the hardware store and stuffed it in that slot. I found out, though, that the gap is much wider on the passenger side than the driver's side and the tube now falls into the wider side!
