Unrepairable recalls piling up.

I just got the fuel pump one yesterday- 2022 Bronco Sas 2.7. I have had others- windshield, rear camera, wipers rear shocks, etc. I have not bothered with the camera or the wipers. The shocks- well that does not bother me either, I live in a salt free state, so I do not expect them to rot out anytime soon.

But the fuel pump one scares me. Especially it states NO REMEDY. What does this mean- fuel pump could suddenly lose pressure and vehicle dies at any speed, anywhere? No remedy means no parts or no fix? is it a re-design and wait for parts? What if this happens- park the Bronco for weeks, months and wait?

For the first time the recalls have me worried. And I am out of warranty. My wife wants me to get rid of it now and get a crew cab pick up- which we really do need- but it seems almost every vehicle today has issues..........and I still love this damn Bronco

If you’re out of warranty and it hasn’t went yet, you’re probably not going to have an issue. Especially if you haven’t seen anything weird from it. If it was a serious thing that could effect you Ford would say to stop driving it

I got a recall notice the week I bought the Bronco for the child locks. Kids are 17 and 20, so not a serious issue for us. I am sure there will be more down the road to take the truck in for. Every manufacturer has recalls. Get a Jeep if you like them more, I have two in the family and have had at least one since 1989, but the Bronco seems to be just as good in most areas, better in some, less in others. If the recall does not cause you issues on the day to day, just let your service guy know to inform you when the parts on are and enjoy the summer until then.

1) That sucks

2) Uninstall the app and re-download it.

3) Jeep is not the answer. Not by a long shot.

My wife has a Jeep Wrangler and I have a Bronco. In our experience. Jeep customer service blows Ford out of the water. It's not even close.

I've had Ford try to deny more warranty repairs than United Healthcare has tried to deny my families medical claims. And someone shot the United Healthcare CEO.

I LOVE my Bronco. I want to hold on to it as long as possible. But it very well could be my last Ford.

Is this a call to arms?

Last time I went to a Ford dealer with a problem they gave me this printed on a nice glossy paper.

Lol, no. Just an observation about companies that claim to provide an insurance coverage (or a warranty), but do everything they can to deny insurance benefits.

I have an order in for a '25 badlands, am I to assume that the new vehicles being built in the next few months are already incorporating the fixes for these issues?

Clearly he meant to say Land Rover!

I have a couple recalls as well. I experienced the camera going out for the first time today - it came back on after shifting to park and back to reverse. Shocks haven't fallen off yet, but I only have 12K miles. I have a couple recalls on my Silverado that don't have parts either. In my limited experience, Lexus is best and BMW is worst.

FWIW, BMW is consistently rated right behind Lexus in reliability these days for luxury brands.

Was not the case 5 to 10 years ago, but they seem to be doing something right.

JLR, Mercedes and Audi all seem to be having issues though.

Shit happens, I wouldn’t lose sleep over it, I’m certainly not.

It seems like you are assuming Ford and Ford dealerships to be part of the same organization. They are totally separate. The customer service at my Ford dealership is excellent.

Lol, I always joke that because I want to lift "after the Hitachis wear out" , they'll probably last 350,000 miles.

Yes. They will probably screw something else up but do not stress.

No, not at all. I have a great dealership service department also. If the parts are not yet available, as stated in every recall notice I’ve received, there’s not much you can do, except to wait. Starting a thread about it, when we all get the same notices and complaining about it, is pointless, IMO.
