$900 or so all lubes, various fluids and filters should be changed no exceptions.​

​

I guess DIY would be about 300-350 in high grade products...​

Nothing particular is recommended at 50k by Ford, and nothing out of the ordinary at all until you hit 100K and need plugs.

Now... What Ford recommends, and what most people here recommend, and what some dealers recommend - those three things can be very very different.

Personally, I did all major fluids except brakes at 50k (didn't have 3 years on it yet), and I did my plugs early (it did make a difference). DIY - it was right around $100 for the fluids and normal oil change, and the plugs I got were $80 for 2 sets, and the work itself was a 6-pack afternoon with a tire rotation thrown in for good measure. At the dealer where I live, that would be... probably around $700-$800.

10,000 Miles

During the first major service interval at 10,000 miles, your Ford Bronco will require an oil change. This interval is ideal for those using their Bronco for everyday commuting with highway driving and no or moderate towing or hauling. This service includes a tire rotation, a multi-point inspection, and a check of the transmission fluid level. The service technicians will inspect the parking brake and brake pads, rotors, and hoses. They’ll also check the engine coolant level, hoses, exhaust system, heat shields, rear axle, U-joints, half-shaft boots, steering linkage, ball joints, suspension, tire rod ends, driveshaft, tires, and related components. These services will be repeated every 10,000 miles.

20,000 Miles

At the 20,000-mile mark, it will be time to replace the cabin air filter. This helps ensure the air inside your Bronco remains clean and fresh, improving the overall driving experience.

30,000 Miles

Once your Bronco hits 30,000 miles, the service technicians will replace the engine air filter. This helps maintain optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency.

100,000 Miles

Upon reaching the 100,000-mile milestone, it will be time to replace the spark plugs and inspect the accessory drive belt(s). This helps maintain optimal engine performance and efficiency and ensures the longevity of your vehicle’s essential components.

150,000 Miles

At the impressive milestone of 150,000 miles, the service technicians will change the automatic transmission fluid and replace the accessory drive belts. These steps help to ensure the smooth operation and longevity of your Bronco’s transmission system.

200,000 Miles

Finally, when your trusty Bronco reaches 200,000 miles, it will be time to change the engine coolant. This crucial task helps to prevent overheating, protecting your engine from potential damage and maintaining performance.

Every 3 Years

Regardless of mileage, changing the brake fluid every three years is recommended. This is a crucial maintenance task that helps ensure the responsiveness and efficiency of your vehicle’s braking system.

Following this comprehensive maintenance schedule will ensure your 2023 Ford Bronco continues to deliver the performance and reliability you expect from this iconic off-roader. Regular preventative maintenance can also help prevent costly repairs, making it an investment in your vehicle’s future.

Really not any different than what you should be doing on pretty much every oil change though. Inspection costs tech time.. but not a ton of it if they have it up on a lift or over a pit already. They have to drop a skid plate if you have them installed... that's really about it.
