Good move on getting a Ford rep involved. I did as well and she was the one who really kept me updated throughout the process. Hope all goes well. Let me know if you need any info I can help you with.
That may be the case but shouldn't happen on a new vehicle. On mine they replaced the entire transmission and the noise is gone. From what I understand, if the vehicle is under a certain amount of miles that is the fix.
I wasn't really concerned about it. As long as I had something to drive. They did give me the Ford Limited Maintenance Plan which is close to $400 which Im fine with.
Update: So far so good with my repairs. I'll be taking a longer trip this weekend with some off road time as well. I also got an email from my Ford rep that they will be giving me the Ford Protect Limited Maintenance Plan for 3 years or 45k. ($395 value)I guess thats what you get for having your...
UPDATE: Well its been a crazy 6 weeks since I brought my truck in for the noise I was hearing. On Thursday last week my Ford rep called and said the transmission was in but there were a "couple parts" that would not be in till this week and April 1st. At that point I was resigned to just waiting...

UPDATE: Just wanted to update everyone on how this saga is proceeding. I have a feeling its going to be a while before I get my Bronco back. I will say if you need to go through this you have to be a pain in the ass to the service director and everyone you can. They will tell you they will call...
UPDATE: Finally got an answer on my BB that’s been at the dealer since 2/3. They are replacing the transmission. They ordered it today. I will know an ETA tomorrow. Why it took so long to diagnose is beyond me, but at least I now know. I will continue to post updates as I get them. To everyone...
UPDATE: As of today 2/27 my Bronco is still at the dealer. Been there since 2/3. Here is the latest from my service technician:
"Hi Ray, I got an update on your vehicle (sort of). Your technician was waiting to hear back from the Ford Engineer. They want us to take the transmission out of the...
UPDATE: Just got this from my service technician at Ford. Pretty much nothing concrete and have to wait for Fords response. The game continues.....
"They think it has to do with 6th gear or the throw out bearing but without taking the transmission apart we couldn't say for sure. Also, with the...
