Another Bronco recall...

[Nitehawk92]

Well there is a new recall on the Bronco. Not a major thing, but the article says that this is the eight recall for the Bronco since it debuted in 2021...

I was worried for a bit that I hadn't seen a Bronco post in a few days. I can go to sleep now lol

Well, Ford led the industry in the number of recalls in 2021 and 2022.

Last year Ford issued twice the number of recalls than the next worse automaker.

Looks like Ford is not willing to give up the top spot so easily.

Don't we also have a few recalls out there? There's one on my diesel with no remedy in sight.

I think the real takeaway here is that Ford is far more willing to fix their broken shit than Jeep is. Stellantis does everything possible to avoid being forced to fix a shitty engineered part.
Or course they(Ford) are almost as bad at the dealer level in terms of trying to fuck over customers.

Pretty sure my 21 rubicon has an unfixable recall on my manual transmission..... Just waiting for it to blow up so I can total it and grab a 24 tacoma with insurance check......seriously Im done with jeep! Oh lets not forget about the paint bubbling corrosion issue too!!!.......

I got back into a jeep from the broncos. So many issues. In shop bunches. The worst part is even with safety and drivability issues Ford will still let you drive the vehicle until they can get the part. I had the last one 13 months.
it took almost a year to get the part and then 6 weeks to get me in. By time I traded it it still wasn’t fixed.
And then I started to have transmission issues at 11k miles. 6+ months for a complete trans. Traded. And a possible rear diff unit that was acting up. Wanted to replace trans and then rear end if needed.
Both had their turbos and related parts replaced at under 3k miles. The new turbo motors in everything are awful. Not to mention every Ford shop is down techs.
Both Ford’s had issues right off the lot.

Unreal....

What the F is this world coming to...

"Difficulty accessing the seat belt latches may result in occupants not wearing their seat belts," the NHTSA recall notice said.

Belittling: a form of negative social interaction where individuals intentionally diminish or criticize others in order to boost their own self-esteem or feel superior.

I'm in the same boat with the 6 speed. I bit the bullet and ordered a clutch kit from ACT because I have no faith in Jeep and the direction this is headed. I love my Jeep and want to keep it forever so I'm willing to incur the cost of fixing their batched design flaw.
