  1. Safety Recall 24S55 - 2.7L Engine Valve Inspection

    21228 could be the upper limit for this current Recall So far no one has posted higher than 21228 with the recall notice. We're talking original engines - not replacements
  2. Are there sales figures by trim? I feel like I only see Big Bend, OBX, or Badlands in the wild. I’ve never seen a Wildtrak or Black Diamond.

    Right. You got it. There's no big mystery The Production Constraints threads list the "US Capacity" and "Order Bank" percentages for each trim. And these numbers stay mostly the same for many months on end. Even year to year they don't change much. Last couple years in the standard trims Black...
  3. It’s been fun, but today I walked into a Jeep dealer…

    Now I see the problem. The Vespa back in the corner says it all SMH
  4. What is the most fun vehicle you have driven!! Bronco, Wrangler, anything else?

    Had same color in my 2000 R1. Lots of fun The lousy Yamaha clutch baskets eventually pushed me into Hondas And here one of many rentals in SE Asia. Did lots of zipping around the backroads wearing sandals and tank top. One time rented R1 over there also
  5. Anyone ever seen this?

    I had five alignments done on lifted Broncos at three different alignment shops. The Sasquatch rings stayed in place. They were not removed for any of the alignments or lifts
  6. 2.3 Bronco Engine fire 😭

    In the 20k service I'm wondering if they did anything with the spark plugs Changed the spark plugs ? It sounds like one of your spark plug cables got loose and was just sparking against nearest thing in the engine bay then caused something to ignite If they total it maybe good for you. Sounds...
  7. What upgrades needed to run 37” tires on a Badlands Sasquatch Bronco?

    Unless you're extreme rock-crawling all you need is Leveling Kit and re-alignment then add your 37's to your factory SQ wheels no problem In lots of very rugged off-roading the only rubbing I've had is reverse at full lock, and we're talking minor rubbing - almost nothin Broncos are just...
  8. MPG on Bronco with "37" tires

    Well others have posted 23+ w freeway driving included. I'm driving medium speed County roads w very few stops & no freeway. So it's still similar to the others Could be something w the tires also. Those factory GY's are only 52 lbs and C-rated. These Yoko's are 76 lbs and D-rated. Definitely...

  12. UAW authorized Strike. Huge Demands!

    Maybe Ford and their product lines will be taken over (bought out) by one of the Japanese companies. Then we could have Broncos made by Honda. Best of all worlds ?
  13. TOWED 6 TIMES - '21 Bronco Big Bend 2 Door

    In these endless repair situations another good option is BBB Auto Line ( 800-955-5100 ) and open a case w them. They will arbitrate for you free and get Ford's full attention. This option is described deep in the Bronco Owner's Manual - somewhere near the end. I'd do this before any...
  14. 2.7L blown engine failure list . . 68 so far [Updated: December 13, 2022]

    This would be expensive recall. Earlier I believe @flip or @Bmadda commented that doing full valve & head replacements could be tediuos/risky for many dealer service depts. Full engine replacement could be better, more productive, more reliable. Bronco engine replacements run about $12k. Recall...
  15. UAW goes on strike @ MAP Bronco / Ranger factory [ADMIN WARNING: NO INSULTS, NO POLITICS]

    On the other hand, cynicism is not a good look for either side of the table. Those leaked texts could splinter the membership support for their UAW "bosses" Then strike could end sooner than later
  16. 2.3L EcoBoost® I-4 Engine vs 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 Engine... not sure which one?

    Right, all these newer turbo technologies make it impossible to compare displacements with earlier engines. My old 4Runner has 3.0L w only 150hp. This 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 Bronco is by far the most powerful engine I've ever owned. It's my first "hot rod" ! !
  17. Will Ford Delete the Base 2.3L engine option?

    2.3L EcoBoost I-4 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2.7L V-6 ?
  18. Will Ford Delete the Base 2.3L engine option?

    The 2.3L I-4 is a total BEAST ! ! ! - not "base" The 2.3L is a GREAT engine for Bronco Personally I would not buy a Bronco w 2.7L
