What I hate about my Bronco, you? (edit) Or maybe I should have called it "What would you want if you were designing it"

Start/Stop eliminator cable. Works great! (I think there are cheaper ones on Amazon too)

The power seats should be cooled not just heated. My 2017 Mustang GT had this.

I am normally the guy that says "screw options! Make simpler and more reliable vehicles for less!" But, I am totally with you on cooled seats. I had them in a S550 GT too, I ran those things year round. I'll gladly trade away all other options and electronic gizmos to get cooled seats. Give me manual locks, manual roll-up windows, dials and knobs, no stupid touch-screens, all manual or analog EVERYTHING, but give me cooled seats and I'll be happy with that tradeoff.

I hate it when people buy the Bronco, thinking it is something that it’s not (like a luxury car or a race car), then bash on it.

For all the people complaining about the auto start/stop, how many realize this is an auto industry standard and not Ford or Bronco specific? I leave mine in sport and it stays off. Turn the AC on max and it stays off. Turn your wheel enough and it stays off. Stop crying and push the button.

I think my only real complaints are the loose/rattling windows and the center console lid (not a real issue just annoying). Ive had many frameless windows and Ford has made convertibles for years and these windows are ridiculous. As for the armrest how hard would it have been to go back a few more degress? Yes Ive seen mods to fix it but that shouldnt be my responsibilty.

I only have 1 thing I hate about the Bronco, some other things are just annoying. #1 hate.... Turbo engines. They suck. I'd take a 315 hp V8 any day. But, Ford isn't doing that so I'm stuck with it.

The B&O sound system was anemic until I replaced all the speakers and added an amp. Cooled front seats would've been nice. Autodrop windows need to come back. MIC top is nowhere near the quality it should be and painted hardtops should be an option to replace if and when warranty issue occurs on the MIC. Interior lighting (ambient or otherwise is non-existent).

Hmmm, the windows on my '24 WildTrak drop as soon as I open the door.

Only thing I hate is having a car payment again. ;-)

Vehicle is batting 1000 so far.

Yes — Stop/start is annoying, but 1) I’ve gotten used to it, and 2) blame gov’t gas mileage requirements and Ford needing to do stop/start as a cheat. Is what it is.

Same here, while I only have 4,200 miles on my WildTrak, it has been great so far. I love it.

Yeah, ventilated seats would've been nice and like others, my 2016 Mustang has them.

Also, as others have said, there is nothing I hate, and even dislike is too strong of a word. Even with interior noise, I was preparing for much worse.

I do hate having a car payment again after not having one for over six years. Thankfully I put down about 65% of the purchase price and got a relatively decent rate.

So for one, the automatic start stop. I know there is a button to shut it off. But the button should be to turn it on.

The other thing I hate is "this is disabled while driving". There should be a feature to disable that feature. I would like to switch albums in my USB while on the highway for example. There is not really any more functions to do that is any more distracting than switching through some of the phone functions screens while driving.

Drive in Sport mode and it defaults to off (as do many other vehicles)

Apparently it was removed via software update in all pre-24 models

For me it's not about my Bronco, I absolutely love it...it's other Bronco owners who ask/expect/say the most ridiculous things! lol

My cousins friends sisters best friends nephew has one of those new broncos... turns out its a sport

Interior plastic trim is absolute garbage. Give me painted sheet metal interior trim as God intended. I'm disappointed that rubber floors isn't an option on lower level trim. Carpet used to be a luxury upgrade. The hard top material is... well... not good. The shoulder belt height is not adjustable. They should have designed it with the elongated fender wells from the start. Rounded fender wells look more Scout than Bronco. Wet oil pump drive belt? Really1? I mean, WTF!?

Edit:

The interior lighting. I forgot to add that the interior lighting is useless. In fact, I think it might actually reduce the ambient light of the interior.

I HATE that every aftermarket manufacturer IGNORES the 2 Door Broncos.

I have been trying to get a tonneau cover but basically the 2door Broncos are constantly overlooked.

BTW- if we’re buying 2 doors that generally means we don’t have kids, so that means MORE MONEY in our pockets…hello!

Some of you walked right past the Explorers in the Ford showroom.
