Bad news about MIC 2.0 quality after a few days

[Snowdogyyz]

Eh, when the MIC top Ver. 2 or 3 or whatever is fielded for a few years and begin to disintegrate then I'll agree the MIC top is crap. But until then there is no information or data that says it is other than minor cosmetic issues.

Agreed that there aren’t enough data points yet. But it’s certainly not looking promising considering there aren’t that many mic tops out there yet.

I am not sure it matters in the numbers. Ford quality checks out the door is missing these. A few here a few there...it's NOT acceptable. It just isn't. Someone will end up with these inferior tops...it could be you, me or him and her. If I got one after paying $50K for a new vehicle...I would be livid!!!! This needs to get fixed once and for all. I have waited 16 months now....I see no real hope of getting a Bronco now in 2022. Unless something changes.....the bubble burst a long time ago. I was so excited. Not so much anymore.

I'm still super excited which is a hard thing to sustain while being on this forum as frequently as I am with all the Debbie Downer news people post every minute of the day. I think I am about as excited as I have ever been as I feel like I am within spitting distance of getting a build date in the next 60 days. The roof, that will be fixed eventually and we can warranty it. I have seen several of these roofs in person and I had a hard top JK for years, to be honest they aren't far off. I understand about the complaints because my build is up there in the 60K range, but I also know I would rather deal with the warranty end of things than wait another six months and I am not abandoning the Bronco, it checks all the boxes for me and I don't care for anything else.

Stay excited. This thing is amazing. My wife has her own crazy expensive Audi with fancy airbag suspension, double pane windows and every bell and whistle you can imagine to make it as smooth, quiet and luxurious as possible..

She's out getting us breakfast in the Bronco. She would quite literally rather drive it than her brand new luxury SUV. That speaks volumes in my world. My wife wasn't a super big fan of the Bronco originally.

I'm past blaming Webasto. This stuff is getting by Ford QC, after they should already be hyper-sensitive about this exact issue.

Probably not getting by QC, those people are generally ridiculously anal. It’s probably a high level (SVP, EVP or C level) management decision to let them go to continue shipping units.

Another possibilty is the issues are occuring after shipment. The OP did mention his looked good initially.

Hey @Admin, can we get a Poll or something started to allow folks to weigh in on the status of their MIC tops? This may help us understand how widespread the issue is and may even pinpoint a specific Lot or timeframe that is suspect.

How da'F does that make it through inspection? "Ford - built good enough!" How do I get a job as an quality inspector? My wife gets a new door ding and I can't help spotting it from 50' out.

Are you looking for dings on 500+ vehicles a day, crap happens and this is not a major issue.

when you’ve been able to study, cheat and copy off the wrangler for 25 years and 3 generations and you still can’t get the top right.

Still can't get it right 2 attempts later mind you. The Ford purists on this forum are comical though, making excuse after excuse as to why Ford/Webasto can't get it right. People just need to call things out for what they are and stop playing to their base.

We have a thread that's less then 24 hours old, with 7/8 people showing legit evidence of MIC 2.0 issues, within a period of less then a month of ownership, on a forum that realistically probably makes up <1% of total Bronco ownership, and we're not even in the winter months yet. Lets call it for what it is...an issue.

Good idea. A second thread may be better for organization but I'm all for a mod adding it here if they think it's better.

The MAP crew got a little carried away with the adhesive when installing the glass in my new hardtop.

That’s the sighn of worker that doesn’t give a fuck so sad no one takes pride in there work anymore

OP, you need to start a poll, I think we are only talking about a small number of tops. Please put some numbers with it!

I'm going to lose it if they halt shipping again. I just barely missed the cutoff the first time and am just a few weeks away again.

Just send it and we'll figure it out later.
