It doesn’t start but the battery doesn’t appear to be dead…
Is it really that low on gas or is that a gremlin acting up?

I think it’s 30 miles to empty…
Assuming that’s not the issue, I’m not sure I’d trust the software algorithiums defining your ultimate gas milage as gospel.
The 1.5’s have had some some issues with fuel pumps. They require the fuel in the tank to cool the pump. I would guess 26 miles translate to about 1 gallon which might be a little low assuming its accurate to keeping the pump cool. Is this typical for you to let it go this low before filling back up?

Pretty sure that's either a bad battery, or a loose battery connection.

That's an electrical issue, that is not a low on gas issue. Either a dead battery, bad connection to the starter or a bad ground connection at the battery or frame. My bet would be a dead battery.

You might try charging the battery.
Hopefully that'll get it going. Then have the battery tested. If it's the original battery it could be on its way out.
I see you have a 2021 model. Depending upon when it was delivered, the battery may still be covered by the 3 year warranty.
If it does need to be relaced, be sure to get an "AGM" type.-- either Motorcraft or aftermarket.

Hi there, Kelli! Go ahead and send us a private message with your VIN and the name and location of your Ford dealer, and I’ll look into this concern with your Bronco.

I think is the new Skrillex song for the summer!! Sorry, bad joke.
My old Fiesta ST used to do similar when the battery was low. I guess it's the same.
