I just bought the first Ford that I've had in 21 years, a 2022 Ford Bronco Sport Outer Banks. I love the way it looks. I love the comfort of the seats, how warm the heated seats get, that they come on with the remote start if left on when you leave the vehicle. Love that it is averaging 30 mpg. There are many things I love about it, but 3 weeks after purchasing, the dreaded wrench lit up and when checking the Ford Pass app I found it was a "powertrain malfunction". At this point, I'm wondering, is it ok to drive, do I need to park it? I text the dealer that I just bought it from (3 hours away- it was the closest dealer that had one for sale) and she said it should be ok to drive home. I call the Ford dealership in Onalaska, WI who is near me and the service man there says, no I cannot look up by the vin number to see if it is serious and we can't get you in for an appointment for at least 45 days. Luckily the Ford dealer in Richland Center, WI was kind enough to look up the vin on the computer and informed me it has to do with the gear shifter and I have an appointment there today to have it looked at. After reading so many others with issues like this on their vehicles on Facebook Bronco Sport groups, and a wide variety of problems, I am worried. Help me out Bronco Sport owners- if you have had a good experience I'd love to hear about it as it is scary to think I just purchased an unreliable vehicle.
