So I finally have my Bronco back!!!
Dealership was able to install the parts and confirm it was a bad solenoid.They dropped it off to me on Tuesday and itās been driving great ever since!
So Iām (somewhat) caught up. The seal finally arrived on Monday and they got it installed and test driven and detailed, trailing over into Tuesday morning. My sales guy asked if he could bring it to me and he delivered it to me at work where we made the exchange. He brought me a few goodies and...
A bad solenoid requiring a new front axle assembly. Iāll post a better update latter but I literally couldnāt sleep until I provided the good news šš¤£š
Thatās awesome!!!! Iā¦. was told now theyāre missing a seal. Thatās on galactic back order. But they got another dealer to overnight it so now at least Monday for meā¦. š¤¦š¼āāļø
Update:
The original issue identified was that the FDRS software identified 2 modules as failing a network test. Per the wiring diagrams (in the workshop manual?) these two modules should be on 2 different networks, however they were coming up on the same network, which wasn't either of the...
I wish. So far my dealership has been nice, but a lot of we'll get through it! They installed my door sill plates for me.
The worst part is THEY STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT!!!!!
Ok now that I got that out.

Yāall likeā¦. I canāt. I just⦠the part came in broken. The front axle, which arrived Friday and was waiting for additional pieces to be installed, was broken THE WHOLE TIME, and they found it when they went to fix my truckā¦ā¦ still no Bronco. Part ordered again āovernighted.ā
17 days and countingā¦.
You cannot, if youāre talking about the Ford accessories site discounts. The point shave to be done through the dealer and they donāt honor that websites deals. I ordered my floor mats today with my points and trying to get a price to use the remainder on the 4 dr cargo mat we talked about it.
For real.
@Jazer I feel like we need a badge thatās one of those āI Survivedā styles.
I Survived
Ordering the Bronco?
Bronco Purgatory?
Bronco Wilderness (because I feel like this whole process is akin to wandering the desert with no map, unsure if you see water or just an illusion. )
Thatās helpful stuff! Iāll watch these. If theyāre referring to an electrically driven pin that may help connect the dots on how we got from a computer glitch last week to replacing the front axle this week.
Youāre awful quick make assumptions on multiple threads. OP specified using 4wd on icy roads and I, a) never stated anything about driving conditions or driving in 4wd at all, b) donāt even have 4A, as you assumed in your other comment, and c) actually included a video showing itās in 2H that I...
Which is the only saving grace at this point. I feel like since Iāve purchased mine they have some accountability to me, but even though youāre stuck with just as long of a wait they might be like, weāll itās still our carā¦. This is definitely a case of sucks all around.
This does sound similar to my issue. Theyāve had mine for over 2 weeks now and have apparently decided to replace the front axle to solve a solenoid issue. I donāt think they actually know what theyāre doing. Weāre 2 Ford specialists in at this point...
At this point Iām not sure if youāre worse off because you havenāt actually taken delivery yet, or if I am because Iāve paid for a car Iām not drivingā¦. Like hello Fordā¦

the parts still didnāt come in. So I guess thatās also a no update. The Ford Rep didnāt tell me anything other than that she had talked to my service rep at the dealership and they were still waiting on parts.
