According to the person who created the quote, the part has been redesigned 5 times...I think that you're referring to the whooshing sound. That's the normal noise that some complain about. The creeking noise is what is more annoying.
The quote was at Christian Brothers Automotive. I asked them if there was any safety risk and they said, "no". They said it's just annoying and that I might experience changing pedal feel but that I can stop the vehicle in any case.
I just got a quote to replace the brake booster on a 2022 Bronco Black Diamond -- $1,954.54. Of that, $386 is for labor and the rest is for the Ford part. This part cost is insane to me. Has anyone else had this same problem? Are there any cheaper options. The whole vehicle was only 46k. Why...
I agree, it is a particularly dumb move. Ford's CEO was saying, "no more boring cars" and then they drop the 2-door Heritage Bronco. If anything, it should be *only* two door.
It amazes me how few people notice or know this. I noticed it *immediately* when test driving the 2.3. The motor felt fine. The lighter 2.3 handles better. But the brake feel was considerably worse.
On the 2025's they went with electronic brake distribution across the lineup. No more vacuum boost.
That means Ford is being a little bit misleading by marketing Co-Pilot 360 as part of the "Mid Package" when in fact all Bronco's seem to have a few of the Co-Pilot 360 features.
My Bronco has no packages at all and it still has automatic high beam assist and there is a pre-collision alert feature. I don't think there is any automatic emergency braking, however.
