Hi all, new to this forum and hoping ya all can provide some insight. I have a 2” after market lift on my 2023 Badlands and the adaptive cruise control keeps saying sensor blocked and stops working. The Ford dealership is saying it is due to the lift. But this doesn’t make any sense to me. A lift doesn’t block the sensor AND it works part of the time and intermittently stops working. I have little faith since the first time I took it in they said it was due to bugs even though ot wasn’t even dirty and then as soon as I got in and tried it the error message immediately came back on so clearly they didn’t test drive it. Advice?

Unlikely the lift is causing the issue. Plenty (including me) have lifted Broncos with no ACC issues.

I was curious what this turned out to be. I have the same issue, lift and no obvious blockage of the camera.

It’s the angle of the sensor relative to the road, need it at 93 degrees down or 87 from vertical, depends on who you talk to or measure , just re adjust it….
