Thought this was cool and interesting, a first year bronco with above 100k miles still going strong! Usually the saying is never buy first year vehicles.
This is a "First Year" Bronco.

I have a 23 Raptor with 103K on it. I have the Whipple intercooler and tune. Hairline cracks just started, otherwise no issues. I have not done an wheeling to speak of but have driven the thing all over the country.
103K miles on a '23 Raptor is seriously impressive, you've been living in that thing! Where are the hairline cracks showing up? Is it on the hardtop or somewhere along the body panels?

Oops I meant first year 6th gen Bronco 😅


My Daughter has a 2021 BB July Production date Soft Top 2.3 Engine
has 150K on it no engine issues until last week she was getting a misfire error on hard acceleration, we went ahead and had plugs and coil packs swapped out. Seemed to fix problem.

My wife has a 2022 Wild Track with 122K on it, no issues whatsoever with 2.7 engine
no cracks on hard top.

I think the Broncos with either engine are pretty reliable vehicles.
That’s awesome! I’ve had both engines and agree both are strong. My previous bronco was the 2.3 and it was good for a 4 banger. My HE has the 2.7 (with procal) and I love it. The shifting is so smooth and amazing low end torque.

They are around the rear side windows. very hard to see. has to be clean and in bright light to see them.

Our 23 WT SAS has almost 60k and zero issues. No cracks in the roof. Runs and drives great. The rear seats are very uncomfortable is the only complaint.

I am just shy of 100k on mine. Outside basic maintenance, its been problem free. I did have the temp sensor (in the driver mirror) go bad and need replacing. It was showing 150 when its only 70 outside :)
I had that go too. Ordered the part and replaced myself. ~$40 or so? Cleared the fault and was good to go.

I’m 10 months out of my last warranty repair, and it’s the longest my Bronco has been problems free. 38k / miles 3.5 years old, mostly on-road. Still love it, but it’s like a surprise box. The bright side is that nothing failed twice.
