Happened to me on a really washboardy back road in Skull Valley, AZ about 4 months ago, hood was closed, and the warning stayed on till I reached my destination. Was planning on taking it to a Ford Dealer in Prescott the next morning, but the warning wasn't on and it hasn't happened since.
I'd rather be "woke" then asleep, and they do build electric vehicles, so maybe they lost market value by building shitty vehicles that get recalled way too often.
I saw a company (can't remember their name) when I first got my Bronco almost a year ago that was selling a clear panel to replace the front roof panel, but as I remember they were asking $1700, which seemed ridiculous; great concept for winter driving, but way overpriced!
There is no blind spot with "properly adjusted mirrors"; the reason there's a blind spot is that most people adjust their mirrors so they see the sides of their vehicle, which they already know are there, so they have improperly adjusted mirrors.
You are 100% correct, and I've explained to so many people that you know the side of your vehicle is there; why do you need to see it in your mirror! In a nutshell, put your head against the drivers side window and lean over as far as possible (with your seatbelt on) towards the passenger window...
Went from a '21 Trail Boss LT to a 4dr BD w/2.3 and MT. Yes, I miss my truck, but I love my Bronco, although I have concerns about the reliability (and longevity) of the Bronco, which is why the 2024 Land Cruiser might be my new vehicle. I'm 70, so if I make the switch, the LC will be the last...
Sounds about right; I avg around 22.5 after 9500 miles, towing my 1800 lb teardrop is about 18.9, 4 dr, 2.3, MT. Most of my driving is between 4500' and 7800' altitude.
