  1. Dealership can't get the alignment right

    So, it’s not pulling, the steering wheel just needs to be centered. Tell them that next time you take it in. Pulling means that the truck will drift one direction or the other when you let go of the steering wheel, it’s not doing that. So the alignment is good, tech just didn’t have the...
  2. Warranty denial- HEADS UP

    Just going to 37” tires won’t affect anything other than speedometer accuracy, as long as you stay with stock offset wheels. Ford won’t void your warranty or extended warranty for that. The dealer may give you some trouble if they aren’t your selling dealer, but if they do, you can contact...
  3. Warranty denial- HEADS UP

    If the modification is the cause of the failure then the warranty claim would likely be denied, as it should be. The manufacturer can’t be expected to cover damage caused by modifications, they didn’t sell it that way, they didn’t engineer it that way. The example I saw frequently was...
  4. Paint issues?

    Looks like the grill is messed up too, how much pressure was being used. High enough pressure held close enough can actually cut the plastic substrate, it can also blow off good solid paint….
  5. Warranty denial- HEADS UP

    Changing tire size has absolutely no effect on CV joint boots. Warranty will NOT be denied by Ford for modifications unless there is a solid cause/effect established between the modifications and the failed part. And Ford will normally give the benefit of the doubt to the customer. If the...
  6. Installing Keyless Entry Pad in the fuel door

    Remember, though, Ford Pass only works if you have cellular service. The kind of places I like to go don’t have.
  7. "Flushes" service / maintenance -- Ford's position statement and my opinion (as former technician)

    Flip, it was refreshing to read your post. I was a Ford FSE/Trainer up until I retired 7 years ago, and these chemical-Snake-Oil-solve-everything products are not only unnecessary, but can be harmful. The companies that pedal the stuff make a ton of money, dealers make money, and in some...
  8. “Pre-collision Assist” alert incorrectly displayed on dash

    I agree, but if you changed direction towards parked cars, it might have seen them and alerted. The sensor points straight forward, and if straight forward has an obstruction in the way that is too close you’ll get the warning.
  9. Display current gear on the dash?

    You know, after seeing the cluster in a Raptor, it kinda ruined me for the cluster in my Badlands. That’s really the only thing I can say I don’t like about the Badlands so far. The cluster is pretty weak.
  10. “Pre-collision Assist” alert incorrectly displayed on dash

    The system only knows that you are closing on an object. It happens often when you come up behind a car that is turning right, you know the car is turning but collision avoidance doesn’t know, it just knows you are closing too fast.
  11. Display current gear on the dash?

    My 20233 Badlands doesn’t. Is that something you can turn on? I really like knowing what gear I’m in.
  12. What rig / vehicle did you give up to get your Bronco?

    2017 F-150. Kinda miss it, but love the Badlands.
  13. Oh Hail! Any suggestions?

    I’ve had PDR done on several vehicles, a couple of the dents were pretty severe. Never had any concerns with paint or anything else. Unless the dents are really severe, don’t let that keep you from your Bronco.
  14. Oh Hail! Any suggestions?

    If there is no refinishing involved the dealer doesn’t have to report to anyone. 30 dings should be around 400 to 500 $, there’s no need for any reporting. And a good PDR tech will get it to the point you won’t be able to see where the dents were, even if you know where they were.
  15. Ford agrees to $9.2 billion US government loan

    We’ll see what happens when Tesla owners have to wait in line while a Lightning sits on a Tesla charger. If I was the Tesla owner I would be PISSED.
  16. Adding Keyless entry on the door handle?

    No, you’re talking about Intelligent Access. That cannot be added later, it wouldn’t be anywhere close to practical.
  17. Ford Tech says Blown T-Case is owners fault for using 4A on Dry Pavement

    Only the smallest front diff has an axle disconnect. The larger axle is live, no locking hubs and no disconnect. Auto 4 Wheel Drive can be turned on at any time on any Bronco equipped with it, set it and forget it. I wouldn’t run with it on all the time, but doing so won’t hurt anything...
  18. Wheel came off from slight swerve on flat pavement

    The part is hollow to reduce unsprung weight and improve ride quality. Looks like it’s definitely a defective casting.
  19. DIY Factory Tow Package using OEM parts with Forscan As-built Data (without error codes)

    PD Evans- Thanks for the reply. I skimmed over the entire thread but missed the reference to 2023 models. I got concerned about wiring changes for late build 2023s when I saw in the wiring diagrams that the rear fog light wiring was eliminated on late 2023s. I have all the parts on order to...
  20. DIY Factory Tow Package using OEM parts with Forscan As-built Data (without error codes)

    Has anybody done this on a late build (2023 calendar year) 23 model. There have been a few minor changes in wiring made after the first of the year.
