So, I get it... your Bronco has a problem; and your personality requires that you would receive a "more than sufficient" response from everyone on this site. Sure, I get it 1) why does this happen to me; 2) you guys' better watch for the same thing to happen, with your new Bronco; and 3) this is the only way I know how to get attention!

After all my collected experience, with cars and trucks, of every kind, I think I might be able to be of help:

Damn it, my engine dropped a valve -- so, you know that these engines don't assemble themselves, right? If you dropped a valve, the reason is likely that one-half of the little valve retainers was installed incorrectly and has now come out of its seat. The result is that a valve cannot be held in place, without these little "keepers." SOLUTION: It's under WARRANTEE, so let the dealer fix it for you, likely free of charge!

My outside tie rod broke -- when I was running a trail in my Bronco, to try out my new 40" x 13.5" tires. Well, damn the bad luck! Not only is the Bronco DYNA 190 and 210, a bit fragile for off-trail and rock climbing, but the tie rods reach an additional +/- 2" than those same parts on the narrower Ranger. This causes even more leverage to the weak tie rods... and increases the chances of breaking the threaded portion of the rod. Performance parts are made in support of harsher workloads... and Spicer has recently announced their new DANA 44 replacement for our factory parts. WARRANTY -- maybe, maybe not, depending on your warrantee repair consultant (and sometimes he Ford rep).

My factory hardtop has a squeak! If you can't figure out how to fix a simple squeaky pin, then you should go back to driving ford Fusions.

The plastic on my soft to is wrinkled! Of course, it is... it's just a cheap soft top, with a cheap plastic window. If you had waited, until sometime in 2023, you could have ordered the more expensive Modular Top (the glass side window on this top, wouldn't have wrinkled!

The plastic window on my soft to scratches easily. The ice scraper scratches it; and glued on stickers... stick to it. Warranty -- maybe if the dealer did it, YES. Maybe if the Owner did it, NO.

There are many other stupid questions, being asked over-and-over. Please search this site, for the answers that you need, instead of requesting the same OBVIOUS answers.

I’ll be honest, if I have a problem with my rig I likely WILL come to this site and let the forum know about it. I’m fully capable of doing a search for how to deal with the issue, but the purpose of the forum is to serve as a community for support…….there’s so much negativity on here however that I’m beginning to feel otherwise

OP, I thought it was just me. You put a smile on my face after eating too much pizza for lunch and still feeling the effects.

Take care. Contented

Yes there is a lot of negativity, some very pointed at a person (so sad) and some regarding things we have no control over (thats just they way things are now). I am on another forum and they know of the negativity here and stay far away. I dont blame them....... flame on!

You know what the best part about coming across another *sigh* thread asking the same question is? You don't have to read it or answer it.

I’m not trying to put down the OP, they have been on here a long time, I recognize the name, I’m sure they have a wealth of car knowledge that I could benefit from. This is by no means pointed at @acetdeucy.

But as someone who was already nervous about breaking into the off-roading world this forum has become the last place I’d ask a question outside of a DM for fear of being “flamed”

So, I get it... your Bronco has a problem; and your personality requires that you would receive a "more than sufficient" response from everyone on this site. Sure, I get it 1) why does this happen to me; 2) you guys' better watch for the same thing to happen, with your new Bronco; and 3) this is the only way I know how to get attention!

After all my collected experience, with cars and trucks, of every kind, I think I might be able to be of help:

Damn it, my engine dropped a valve -- so, you know that these engines don't assemble themselves, right? If you dropped a valve, the reason is likely that one-half of the little valve retainers was installed incorrectly and has now come out of its seat. The result is that a valve cannot be held in place, without these little "keepers." SOLUTION: It's under WARRANTEE, so let the dealer fix it for you, likely free of charge!

My outside tie rod broke -- when I was running a trail in my Bronco, to try out my new 40" x 13.5" tires. Well, damn the bad luck! Not only is the Bronco DYNA 190 and 210, a bit fragile for off-trail and rock climbing, but the tie rods reach an additional +/- 2" than those same parts on the narrower Ranger. This causes even more leverage to the weak tie rods... and increases the chances of breaking the threaded portion of the rod. Performance parts are made in support of harsher workloads... and Spicer has recently announced their new DANA 44 replacement for our factory parts. WARRANTY -- maybe, maybe not, depending on your warrantee repair consultant (and sometimes he Ford rep).

My factory hardtop has a squeak! If you can't figure out how to fix a simple squeaky pin, then you should go back to driving ford Fusions.

The plastic on my soft to is wrinkled! Of course, it is... it's just a cheap soft top, with a cheap plastic window. If you had waited, until sometime in 2023, you could have ordered the more expensive Modular Top (the glass side window on this top, wouldn't have wrinkled!

Personally - the value in these posts are not old men yelling at clouds. Instead it is the rest of us learning over time where the weak points are that need upgrades and also how to fix the squeaky roof pins.
So bring on the lessons learned.

It's the inner tie rod that breaks there cupcake. Try and get your complaint about complaints at least right.
