Yes however it apparently does not cover rentals which I think is so stupid. I am in talks currently with the at fault driver’s insurance to get a rental OK’d
Update:
Insurance says my Bronco is repairable! While I am excited I will hold my breath because there is a chance once they start digging deeper that they will see some frame damage... I had this happen to me on a previous vehicle and I got my hopes up and was then let down.
My biggest...
That’s insanely annoying… My Bronco was (most likely) totaled and I was hoping to be able to find a leftover 25 for a good price. Not waiting until September though.
Does this mean that purchasing a Bronco that requires this recall is impossible? There are a couple Bronco’s with great prices sitting on lots near me rn. After checking their VIN numbers they require this fix and I’m assuming Ford won’t allow these vehicles to be sold?
Update:
I may be getting absolutely shafted on this one. The driver at fault has a payout limit that seems like it will potentially not be able to cover all of the damages to all of the cars. Luckily I paid for collision coverage so I’m hoping at least my remaining balance on my loan can be...
This is almost exactly how my rear ended looks unfortunately except my tow hook is more mashed and the part of the frame where the hitch is supposed to attach is folded up under…
They definitely went underneath for sure. My rear tow hook is pointing straight down almost. Exhaust looks messed pretty bad too.
I spoke with the insurance agent and she said that due to the crappy insurance the at fault driver had that my Bronco will likely be totaled… Luckily I pay for...
Yikes that’s a long wait. I would rather them total mine at that point honestly… Spoke with the insurance agent today and she said that based on the pictures submitted and my description the car would most likely be a total loss. Next step is getting it taken to a collision repair shop to either...
Thank you for the kind words. Getting hit while pregnant has to be scary though I'm glad everyine was fine!
And yes that spare tire did a number on the car behind me. You can see the imprint left on the hood.
Yes a police report was filed and insurances are working things out right now. Should be hearing back in the next day about getting it in to be looked at.
All good advice for sure. I should’ve added that I am an athletic trainer for college athletics so I deal with concussions almost daily! The wife is doing fine now and has no more symptoms.
As far as my truck goes, it was hard to tell what all was going on underneath. I just pray that it’s not...
Had a great week in North Myrtle Beach with my family. Was on the drive back stopped at a red light in Tennessee and a driver going about 30 mph, who was not paying attention, rear ended me and my wife in my Bronco. My wife suffered a very mild concussion but everyone is alright!
We got hit so...
Mine does something similar. There is a SSM-5447 OTA update that was supposed to be announced 2Q of 2026 but I haven’t heard of one dropping or any updates at all.
In fact I had to do some serious digging to even find this update.
It essentially says that there are “permanent DTC’s” stored...
Best accessory you can do IMO. Works great, makes the top lift higher than the prop stick, and IAG is a great company. Have had mine on since I got my Bronco and works perfectly. Super easy to install as well.
