Hey Bronco family,
So I bought brand new 2021 Ford Bronco Big Bend sport 7 days ago . Already 220 miles on it.. lol wife drives the sh...t out of it.. Love it .. now a problem pop up on my fordpass and Bronco.. it said"s Pre-collison assist not available. So I look it up and reader the forums and cleaned the location that I hope is in the right stops. For the front radar sensor and camera.. but the warning is still going off. I'm to this type of tech. If anyone has an idea please help .. yes I'm going to call the dealership because we had this Bronco 7 days..

Sounds like the sensor is blocked by something. That happened to me when I had snow and ice on the vehicle.

Any leaves or garbage stuck behind the grill in front of the sensor ?

Got to be careful with those EZ-pass placements also.

Ok update.. so I can not find the sensor in the front grill. I don't think I even have one. It's a little frustrating so I'm taking it back to the dealership tomorrow. I don't know if there is away to rest it. So if I don't have a sensor in the front grill then let leads me to believe that its the front camera. So I cleaned off the windshield. And still getting the error..called Ford and they told me to take it to the dealership. I'll keep you guys updated on what the dealership says and hopefully the warranty pays for the fix.. lol 7 days old ..

Did you get the 360 package with it? If not it's most likely a software glitch.
Ok yeah thats what I'm thinking. I didn't get the 360 package. So it leads me to believe that its the camera. Anyway taking it back to dealership tomorrow. I'll update forum tomorrow.

the colision sensor should be behind this

assuming it is controlled by the radar?

That is actually for the 360+ distance controlled cruise control. My car has pre-collision assist and does not have the square sensor you circled Bc I don’t have the 360+ Assist. I think it’s a combination of the front camera and the sensors within the rear view camera housing. I say the front camera due to the error that was shared, Bc all of the Bronco Sports have the 360 system, but only 2 (Badlands and 1st Edition) have the front camera.

So you think its the back camera, because I looked and I don't have a front sensor. And I don't have the 360 package. So maybe its the back camera thats dirty..
