  1. Recall 26S32: 2021-2022 Model Year Broncos MIC Hard Top Roof Panel Delamination [May 15, 2026]

    Well everyone thought I was nuts, including my dealership. 5 tops on my 2022. Ford buy back. Then I got a 2024, same issues with the top. Cut bait and traded with 800 miles. It makes no sense why Ford did not do the right thing in the 1st place! Make it make sense.

  2. UPDATE: Hardtops need to be redesigned! Cracking and bubbling on my second hardtop replacement

    Nailed it right there.

  3. UPDATE: Hardtops need to be redesigned! Cracking and bubbling on my second hardtop replacement

    Everyone thought I was nuts in the early years of the cracking tops. My only beef about this is Ford has yet to still fix this. It shows that they are concerned about money. End of concern for them. Some customers are OK with the problem, I am not. I have seen Gen 5 Broncos out there with tops...

  4. UPDATE: Hardtops need to be redesigned! Cracking and bubbling on my second hardtop replacement

    It is Fords thinking, makes no sense IMO.

  5. UPDATE: Hardtops need to be redesigned! Cracking and bubbling on my second hardtop replacement

    I just do not understand why Ford wont do the right thing. Been a loyal customer for 40 plus years. I see these tops being replaced every week not just by the same costomers but new as well. 2 Broncos for myself. Wont be a 3rd till they get it right. Damn shame. I know it does not bother some...

  6. Third MIC hardtop in 3 years FAILS

    Been down this road. 5 times to be exact on my 2022 Outer Banks. Ford ended up doing a RAV. Not sure what GA rules are for buy back. I ended up getting a 2024 Badlands and started doing the same crap. Traded it in with 800 miles on it! I know there are a ton of people that has not had any issues...

  7. Ford Says These MIC Hardtop Cracks Are Considered Normal

    Agreed. My beef is Ford knows the problem, and Ford knows there is a problem for a select few who believe when they pay for a product it "should" work. Ford will still come out ahead even if it goes that far. I am happy for the customers who are on the good side with the tops, It happens with...

  9. JUNK Hard Tops......and a question

    My 2022 2 door outer banks top was replaced 5 times. The last top was starting to do some swelling due to water getting in the cracks. Ford did a RAV, bought a 2024 Badlands 2 door, started cracking at 800 miles. Traded it in. Truly enjoyed the Bronco while I had it.

  11. Any Current Help From Ford with Hardtop Cracks?

    The cracks will hold water soon. Mine did and it was getting like a sponge. It happens when water meets cardboard. Good luck....

  13. (UPDATED) Rotational squeak / squeal noise below 30mph after driving

    I was waiting for someone to post a problem before I pulled the trigger again. Looked at a Badlands with a painted top non SAS, I do not get Fords way of thinking this is OK. sorry bout your problem, been there before with 2 Broncos...

  14. (UPDATED) Rotational squeak / squeal noise below 30mph after driving

    Did 3 on my 2022 and 4 tops Ford bought it back. Got a 2024 driveshaft went squeaking at 800 miles and top started cracking. Traded for an Escape till they fix these issues. Funny got a 2005 Ford T-Bird hard and soft top. No cracks on the hard top.

  15. Is this the infamous MIC top delamination on my 2024?
