Front seats Cause back and hip pain and fatigue on trips over 30 mins- head rest don’t adjust to help compensate putting in awkward positioning. The automatic braking or whatever signifies your close to objects in the front has randomly breaked hard with nothing near me almost resulting in being rear rear ended.
Passenger seatbelt doesn’t loosen up driven normal. Adaptive cruise control doesn’t work, never has. I didn’t know about it until Monday I am taking it to a ford dealership today at Ken Garff Ford. .
My car was parked in my driveway and I parked it up by the driveway door when I came out the next day my car was at the end of the driveway nobody broke in it it was still locked but that was strange then it seemed like every time I'm driving this car it doesn't want to give me power to drive the car I just took it out of town and red lights start popping on inside the dashboard stating something about transmission fluid cooling something I have been to the dealership quite a few times in reference to the car not getting enough power They keep saying nothing wrong with this car but it's something is wrong with this car I've had this car 2 years I've only put $21,000 mi on it each time I put those kind of miles put miles on the car I was driving out of town and each time was scary because the car act like it don't want to go I just came back from Tulsa Oklahoma on the way back home the dashboard was lighting up saying emergency cooling transmission some stuff something is wrong with this car and I keep taking it back to the dealership and they keep telling me it's nothing wrong with this car I'm literally scared to drive this car.
I don’t know the exact name of the system that failed but my Bronco would not accelerate after making complete stops. When I would press on the gas pedals to move from a stopped position the Bronco would move very very slowly which in turn almost caused me to have over 3 car accidents as when I would press the gas to move from a stopping position it would move forward very slowly no matter who much pressure I would put on the gas pedal which in turn the oncoming cars almost hit me. I took the Bronco to the dealership and they said they had to reprogram the acceleration but that it could take up to 500 miles for the issue to be corrected. I believe from my experience this is dangerous and not safe! And should be addressed. This incident has happened several times not one.
The Powertrain of this Ford Bronco Sport (2024) with only 12,000 miles on it malfunctioned while the driver was on a major highway. No control over gears, engine power, etc. Had to pull over in heavy traffic. Fortunately there was a shoulder, or this would have been a major safety risk for the driver and other vehicles and would likely have resulted in an accident. Apparently, this malfunction is related to battery issues as well and can affect the emergency caution flashers. The vehicle was inspected by Ford after being towed to a local dealership and was told that this was part of a recall on other Ford Broncos. A few days later, was told that Ford dealership was replacing the transmission and other parts.
My backup camera one two separate occasions has not operated properly. First time it never showed a vehicle had come up behind me. Didn’t go off with any notice. I backed into a car. Second time a man with a cart walk behind as I was backing out no notice. There is a recall on review camera but not on my vin.
The entire Advanced Drive Assistants Systems only works when it feels like it. Thankfully I haven't had any accidents yet..., but I have come very close to it three times. Especially when the lane system went down, it almost sent me into the car next to me.
THIS CAR HAS LESS THAN 2,500 MILES ON IT, AND IT FAILED TO GO INTO GEAR WHEN PULLING OUT ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. WHEN IT DID SLIP INTO GEAR, IT WOULD ONLY GO 10 MPH THE WHOLE WAY HOME. MULTIPLE ALERTS WERE SENT TO MY PHONE; SEE BELOW FOR SPECIFIC ALERT INFO. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS A LOOSE WIRE AFTER TELLING ME THEY WOULD REPLACE THE CAR, AND OVER 60 SENSORS WENT OFF. ALERTS: SERVICE ENGINE WARNING POWERTRAIN MALFUNCTION REDUCED POWER PRE-COLLISION ASSISTANCE NOT AVAILABLE
