I read many times here this issue but brought my attention this time this while I was traveling and the car star building up a darker mark on the timing chain cover. My Bronco is a 2021 with 24,800 miles on it. Do I need to visit the dealership to inspect and fix the issue? Or likely other post I may wait until the warranty might be close to the ending period?

I would appreciate any guidance and advice.

Just noticed the seepage stain on my 2021 2.3 also.

I never get why people come here to ask permission from complete internet strangers first.

You have a new vehicle covered by warranty, if there is an issue , no harm in having them take a look at it.

They'll let you know if it's covered.

First of all. Thank you. I was thinking to stop by the dealership. But it’s true the warranty is in place and ford would need to take care of any finding.

I appreciate your message.

I visited my local Ford dealer and they were not surprised by the seepage. Also, they are receiving the Bronco next week under warranty.
