2023 Ford Bronco complaints

The infotainment system, radio, backup camera has been frozen or does not come on startup of car. This means the backup camera has been frozen or does not come on when in reverse which is a safety issue. This put people and objects at risk when I backup. This has been happening about once a month if not more. In the cooler months it happens more. I have video proof of this happening and have provided this proof to a Ford dealer. I have taken in my Branco multilabel times to get this checked and they have not been able to reproduce this.

The contact owns a 2023 Ford Bronco. The contact stated while in reverse, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended with the accelerator pedal depressed. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer where it was diagnosed that there were signs that rodents had chewed the engine electrical wiring. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 9,792.

On Sunday [XXX] I experienced a mechanical failure while off road with my Bronco, after getting myself unstuck from a snowbank I had backed into, I heard a clicking coming from my right front wheel, and the clicking continued once I got myself out, I experienced my front wheels lock up twice and a “service 4x4 system” with a wrench, this appeared two different times. This occurred approximately 6.6 to 7 miles up a trail and 9 miles from the nearest town with cell service. (Trail up near Coplay lake, WA.) This “trail” was simply a snowy forest service road and something most vehicles could easily make. Ultimately, it was determined by the dealership that at approximately 12,300 miles my M190 open differential had completely failed and dealership is refusing to warranty the differential. Parts that failed? M190 4.27 front differential. Warning lamps and symptoms ? Service 4x4 lamp and front wheels completely locking up.

The contact owns a contact owns a 2023 Ford Bronco equipped with Continental Tires, Tire Line: ProContact, Tire Size: 225/65/R17, DOT Number: IP50GBV3K. The contact stated that while driving approximately 20 MPH, the contact heard a loud booming sound. The contact stated that after stopping and inspecting the vehicle, it was discovered that the rear driver’s side tire had experienced a blowout and the tire was flat. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 15,000.

I customer Ordered 2023 Bronco from Ford in 1/2023. It was delivered on [XXX]. I paid for vehicle in full. Upon getting in Bronco to drive home I noticed a Defective Steering Wheel with bumps all over it. They cut into my fingers. I notified Ford right then on [XXX]. I also noticed Defective knuckle punch on rear tail door of Bronco that holds Spare Tire, etc. I notified Ford. They have wasted a year lying to me by email and telephone messages telling me they are not responsible for these defects. I documented and photographed issues and had Crown Ford in Lynbrook, NY inspect vehicle and photograph issues and send them to Ford Headquarters in Michigan. Ford refuses to made repairs/corrections under a Manufacturer's Warrent or through the Lemon Law, etc. This was a brand New Factory Built and Delivered Ford Bronco. It was never on a showroom floor or test driven. It was ordered, paid, and picked up by me. I have offered to have work done and provide Ford the Receipts but they refuse to do anything to rectify the situation.

The contact owns a 2023 Ford Bronco. The contact stated that upon reversing into the garage, he placed the gear shifter into park(P) and shut off the engine. Upon exiting the vehicle and approaching the home, the contact heard a loud crash and saw that the vehicle had rolled backed into the garage door. The contact initially thought the vehicle was not shifted into park(P); however, upon entering the vehicle, the contact saw that the vehicle was in park(P). The contact stated that two panels on the garage door. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the dealer was informed of the failure. The manufacturer was also notified of the failure and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 22,700.

My 2023 Bronco with 6k miles died without any warning back in late January 2024. Ford service dept said it was a failed catalytic converter. After it was in the shop for a 1.5 months, waiting on the back ordered part, we picked up our truck around March 10. Fast forward to today, truck has 7k miles. We were southbound on the interstate in bumper to bumper traffic heading to Disney World when the truck’s engine died, yet again. Luckily we were not traveling typical interstate speed and we safely maneuvered the vehicle to the side of the road and contacted Ford roadside assistance and a tow truck was quickly dispatched. The truck is currently sitting at a Ford dealership on a Sunday, 485 miles from home and a lot of money tied up in our vacation plans. Just thankful nobody was hurt, but waiting for this to happen a third time just to file a lemon law is reckless to customers and everyone else on the road, for that matter.

I have a 2023 Ford bronco that has the 2.3 L engine and seven speed manual transmission. It was originally purchased in January 2023. I live in Colorado so it is cold and on cold mornings, since I have received delivery of the vehicle, It has made and continues to make a grinding, scraping sound when the vehicle is in neutral, or the transmission is not engaged. The grinding, scraping sound will occur when driving in first, second, and third gear. If the weather is warm, as over last summer, it does not make the grinding, scraping sound. It has been consistently documented amongst other owners of this particular vehicle, the new sixth generation Ford bronco full-size vehicle with the 2.3 L engine and seven speed manual transmission , that these transmissions make this grinding, scraping sound. I have had it investigated by my local Ford dealership on two separate occasions, and although the tech on site at the dealership states that he can hear the grinding sound and agrees that it is an abnormal sound for a vehicle transmission to make, the Ford motor company has refused to do any type of repair or modification, or replacement of the transmission in my particular vehicle to correct the problem. However, when discussing this problem with other Ford bronco owners, Ford motor company’s response has been very irregular, one friend, in particular, has had his transmission replaced. I am very concerned that as transmissions tend to suffer with wear and tear, that should this trans

While driving the vehicle began to misfire and became unsafe to drive. It was towed to the local dealer where error codes confirmed that cylinder 4 had misfired. Ford was unable to duplicate the issue nor where they able to find any issues that would have caused the misfire after trouble shooting.

The rear parking sensors (all of them) stopped working. Whenever the vehicle is placed in reverse a warning message is displayed on the dash. The vehicle was taken to a Ford dealer and it turns out a wire was damaged in the rear wiring loom. This was most likely due to physical damage from something hitting the wiring loom behind the right rear tire. It seems that this is poor placement/protection of the wiring loom, especially considering that this is an 'off road' vehicle (Bronco). The dealership refused to fix the problem under warranty stating that it was due to 'external' damage.

A grinding/rattling sound is coming from the manual transmission while in 1st & 2nd gear. This is a known issue with Ford, complete with its own TSB 23-2019. I took the car to my local Ford dealer, described the issue, and referenced the TSB. I was told later that the tech could not duplicate the issue. I then offered to drive and have the tech ride with me. We both agreed that it was an odd noise. The next day, I was told they didn't know what the issue was, and as far as they were concerned, the transmission was supposed to sound like that. They have otherwise blown me off and won't help.

Parking Brake Fault Service Now came on. Took to dealer and no codes stored. Looked on google and multiple people are having same issue. Ford needs to look into this as it may not be safe to drive.

I was driving uphill in a neighborhood going about 15 mph when my Bronco suddenly lost power. I was not able to restart and had to manually restart the truck using the fob to ignition method. It started back up, but a terrible sulfur smell was coming from the vehicle. I brought it into our nearest Ford dealership and they claimed there was nothing they could do because no code was reported from the truck. I continued to drive it for another day and the check engine light came on. My Ford Pass relayed a message claiming that the issue was the catalytic converter. I took it to my Ford dealership who claims this could take months to fix because the parts are on back order. My 2023 Ford Bronco, 2.7 liter V6 had less than 6k miles.

The electric parking brake sensor warning appears on the dashboard. It is a warning light that appears and stays on the dashboard. After a few days it will go away. Recently the "red" electric parking brake sensor warning has popped up displaying "parking brake failure, service now" and continues to flash. There is a feeling in the gas pedal of the emergency brake wanting to engage while driving. The issue has been unable to be diagnosed as it is an intermittent malfunction warning light. It is currently with the ford dealer to find the issue.

LED headlights on new 21+Ford Bronco do not have enough heat to melt snow or ice that builds up on the headlights while traveling. There are thousands of posts online from different drivers confirming this issue with winter weather. The headlights become clogged with snow and visibility at night is reduced to an unsafe amount. The headlights will have to be cleared manually, resulting in additional unsafe situations, and get filled back up again in under 10 min. This has not been inspected by the manufacture for my vehicle - but should be recalled and replaced with heated headlamps of some sort. The problem can be reproduced any time by anyone driving a Bronco in freezing rain or snow. I have attached photos of other Broncos with this exact issue.

Windshield wiper speeds are extremely slow. and at times quit working.

Rotational scraping noise from manual transmission, especially when cold and neutral (1st and 2nd gear). Ford Dealer at Autonation Ford Union City, Georgia stated that they would need to replace the 5th and 6th synchronizer rings to resolve this issue. Bought certified used from Capitol Ford in Charlotte, NC with 8213 miles, hear noises but it was soft, but the more I drove the louder it got. Now Bronco has 9064 miles. No accidents, no off-roading, and this seems like a safety issue from the manufacturer because the shifting is difficult.

Wireless charging pad not working correctly. It is causing my phone to overheat to the point it is uncomfortable to hold in your hand.

The windshield was faulty upon delivery of our new 2 door Ford Bronco. Every time it rains, water pours inside the vehicle through the gaps in the windshield sealant. The water flows through the passenger side A-pillar, and comes out of the airbags, as well as the defrost vents, then flowing down the side of the dashboard, and landing on the front passenger floorboard. The service department had to replace the entire front passenger side A-pillar during our most recent visit. The windshield is a major structural component of a vehicle, and our dealership service department confirmed that our faulty windshield puts our safety and the safety of our passengers in danger of experiencing serious injury when the windshield sealant completely fails. We have been to the dealership twice for the water intrusion caused by the faulty windshield. The Ford service department staff said Ford has previously issued a recall for this exact issue, but the recall is not for our specific model, so the Ford service department was not able to replace our faulty windshield under warranty. The inability of the dealership to replace our faulty windshield under warranty forced us to make an insurance claim and replace the windshield on our own. Upon installing the new OEM windshield, the technician pointed out to us in person where the faulty windshield issue stemmed from. It is obviously clear that Ford never tested our vehicle's windshield sealant gaps before they shipped it out for delivery. If the

While driving at multiple different speeds in the rain and snow, the wiper blades on the vehicle slow down on their own to an intermittent speed without driver input. This slowing of the wiper blades causes the driver to lose visibility while driving, creating a safety hazard on the road. This issue has occurred numerous times when the wiper blades are set to the highest speed. After about one minute, the wiper blades start to slow down and eventually reach a stop/start speed where the blades only wipe every 5-10 seconds. To remedy this, the driver has to turn the wiper blades off and turn them back on again to get the wiper blades going again at the higher rate of speed. However, this only lasts for a short period of time (about one minute) and then the wiper blades slow down again on their own. The driver has to keep repeating this to be able to maintain visibility while driving in rain and snow conditions. This causes the driver to have to take a hand off of the steering wheel in inclement weather to keep adjusting the wiper blade speed. This issue has not yet been taken to a dealership for inspection, but this issue has been referenced in several online forums for this particular vehicle. There were no warning lamps or messages that appeared on the vehicle. In fact, in online forums, other Bronco customers have stated that Ford says this is how the wipers are supposed to operate.

My 2023 Ford Bronco has these "Advanced" wipers that automatically stop wiping when they think the windshield is dry or think the wiper motor may be damaged. When driving in heavy rain and you put the wipers on High (or even Low), they automatically switch to Intermittent after about 1 minute. They actually stop wiping at a high speed and pause between wipes for several seconds. In order to keep the wipers going in heavy, blinding rain you have to keep switching the wipers from Low to High to keep them moving. This is a safety hazard since you honestly cannot see though the windshield during heavy rain. After reading the Manual it appears this is a "feature" of the new Ford Bronco. This is a major safety issue and Ford should be required to fix the wiper motor on these vehicles.

Received Truck end of Dec 2022, immediately noticed that when it rains, the wipers at a certain speed have a glitch that suddenly stops and starts at a lower speed. I have video recording and took it to dealer. Dealer told me that it is a feature so the motor does not overheat. It made no sense because I could activate the higher speed and no problem with that one. First time it happened, was heavy rain at night while changing lanes and could have ended in an accident if there was more cars on the freeway. In short, dealer dismissed my concern even though I provided video of the issue.

Since I took delivery of my 2023 Ford Bronco on August 1, 2023 I have not been able to connect to the FordPass (get updates, etc..). Dealer replaced the Gateway Module and has not been able to load software onto the module. The Gateway Module is a "hub" that routes signal to major components of the vehicle (safety, body control, telematics, power train, etc..). Since replacing the Gateway Module, Ford has been unable to get the software to load properly. This issue has manifested itself in not only the Bronco, but the F-150 and Bronco Sport as well. My vehicle has been in dealership for this fix for over 10 weeks. Given this is a critical component to vehicle safety and I have seen on Bronco and F150 forums over 50 cases of this I believe someone needs to question the ability of Ford to service such a critical component of vehicle safety.

Engine service light came on indicating reduced power/power failure. Called Ford dealership and they said to bring it in asap. After diagnosis the Ford dealership said there was a problem with the wastegate. The dealership has no eta on when the part will be available.

The hardtop is failing in a critical mounting point location. Stress cracks are forming on the exterior of the hardtop directly parallel to the interior mounting bolts. The vehicle has 1,500 miles. The risk of the hardtop failing to remain attached to the vehicle on the road due to structural cracks is the safety concern. For structural cracks to occur within the first 1,500 miles does not imply future safety of passengers or others on the road. The problem has been documented by a local Ford dealer that deemed this is not a warrantable condition. The cracks began to appear before the first 1,000 miles of ownership. This vehicle was purchased new and is 5 months old. There were no other symptoms prior to the failure. With how quickly the cracks appeared the concern is sudden and imminent failure while driving.

Two different times, my brakes have lost power. Both times were at slower speeds while coasting. The first time a car pulled out in front of me (about 50 feet ahead) and even though I was only going about 15 miles per hour I was barely able to stop in time. When I hit the brake pedal it felt rock hard (like when you pump the brakes with the engine off). The pedal did not go to the floor or anything like that. It stayed high in the stroke. No ABS sensation or warning lights. The next time I hit the brakes they worked normally. I couldn't reproduce the problem until about 2 months later I was leaving work and was pulling up the street at about 5 miles per hour when it did the same thing. It was almost flat ground and It was all I could do to press the brake pedal hard enough to stop in time. The symptoms were the same as the first time. The moment I hit the brake pedal again, all was normal. The weather was warm both times. The dealer cannot reproduce the problem

Faulty APIM (Accessory Protocol Interface Module) on 2023 Ford Bronco Wildtrak at delivery. The APIM allows the Sync4 suite to function properly. Dealer inspected, determined APIM is faulty. Vehicle delivered on 8/14/2023. Sync4 system continually glitches: reverse camera doesn't appear, or freezes, or is on a delay sync4 lets out a high pitch sound all the time turning on 360 degree cameras causes a glitch calls drop screen freezes

The contact owns a 2023 Ford Bronco. The contact stated that while driving at 70 MPH and attempting to brake, the brake pedal traveled all the way to the floorboard and all the lights had flashed on the instrument panel. The contact stated that after restarting the vehicle the entire dashboard shook uncontrollably. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the failure was due to a faulty cam phaser. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and determined that the VIN was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 12,000

Base plate wield on driver side failed allowing one side of the tow bar to disconnect from the tow vehicle and it is available for inspection. The tow vehicle was allowed to move into the adjacent lane and if there was a vehicle there it would have cause an accident luckily we had pulled into a campground. The wield broke on late Friday and the dealer has not contacted me yet.

The contact owns a 2023 Ford Bronco. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the power train and service engine soon had warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that there was bad gasoline in the vehicle, and gasoline needed to be drained from the fuel tank. The fuel tank was drained and refilled; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to another dealer and diagnosed with a faulty turbocharger. The contact was informed that the turbocharger needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 1,100.

There is an open recall from Ford for almost 2 months and they dont have the remedy to close the recall. I dont feel secure to drive the car and the manufacturer to fix the identified problem on priority basis.

While driving on a highway at +70 mph, the rear window shattered inward, with such force that it sounded like a shotgun had discharged. I did not stop, because literally thought I may have been shot at. The window shattered with such force that the plastic molding around the rear speakers were sliced by the glass. Thank goodness no one was in the back seat, my wife and I were both covered in glass fragments, including small shards of glass. The Ford dealership stated the glass must have been faulty.

The contact owns a 2023 Ford Bronco. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V358000 (Seat Belts) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. An undisclosed dealer was contacted and confirmed that parts were not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

I ask that Ford be immediately compelled to issue guidance o confirming completion of Manufacturer Recall Number: 23C16 / NHTSA Recall Number: 23V358 for vehicles produced but held by dealers pending completion of this recall. Nearly three years ago I reserved a 2021 Bronco from Ford, after multiple model year changes and re-orders, I am still without the vehicle I eagerly anticipated. Despite this, I have been patient. My vehicle finally entered production on 4/26/23 and sat in this status until 6/27/23. Miraculously, after entering a built status on 6/29/23, it was delivered to the dealer on 7/9/23. I thought my wait was over. Sadly this was not the case, as a recall requiring two inexpensive plastic clips be installed on the rear seatbelts, originally announced in May was finally issued six weeks later on July 5th. Despite the fact that this recall did not affect vehicles built after May 9th, and it appears my Bronco was shipped with the recall being completed, but not marked as such in OASIS by the factory. This would seem to be a swift matter for the dealer to address, however, it has come to my attention that Ford may be unable to supply a relatively simple fix to dealers until Q4 and has not yet formalized a remedy to be implement at the dealer level depsite having implemented the correction at the factory, and this delay has put me in an untenable situation. On July 10th, I completed all purchase paperwork, and made payment in full. My vehicle is registered and insure

First time driving the vehicle in the rain at 55mph the wiper motor was turned on to high continuous during heavy down pour. After about 30 seconds the wipers just quit and started wiping on the lowest intermittent setting. Rain was hard enough I couldn’t see the road lines without the wipers and ran off the road. Had to greatly slow down 30mph to see clear enough to move forward while having other cars pass me and about cause another accident. I was able to find a spot to pull off the road and wait on the rain to stop. Called the dealer and they looked at it and said it was the rain sensing wipers and everything was working like it should. Broncos do not come with rain sensing wipers at all. Got a video of the issue and sent it to the dealer and they said same thing again. They don’t know what the problem is or how to fix it and that the wipers are working as is. This problem happens every time it rains and every time the wipers are put into either high or low continuous mode at 55mph. I have videos and service records I can provide if needed.

While driving eastbound on a major parkway traveling at approx. 50mph in the middle lane, the steering completely failed on our 2023 Ford Bronco outer bank’s Sasquatch (the steering wheel was spinning freely and was not controlling the vehicle in any way). The truck was now uncontrollably moving from the middle lane into the left lane narrowly missing several other vehicles. The truck then continued uncontrollably moving left towards a large concrete center barrier, finally coming to a stop against the left shoulder cement barrier. I have included several still screen shots from the video I took of the steering wheel spinning freely without any movement in the front tire. I would gladly share this video if possible.

My engine in 2023 Ford Bronco with approximately 2900 miles failed in lunch time traffic. The dealership is saying they have to order me a new engine. This is borderline criminal.

When driving in heavy rain with the wipers on High (or even Low), they automatically switch to Intermittent after about 1 minute. They actually stop wiping at a high speed and pause between wipes for several seconds.

When I try and electronically close my windows they don't always roll up completely. I can open and close the door to get them to roll up. It's random and not always the same windows.

Resistance sensing wiper motor does not operate as advertised. The motor is designed to automatically slow if the windshield is dry or obstructed in order to keep the motor from overheating. However, regardless of windshield condition or setting the wipers begin slowing to the lowest setting after approximately 45 seconds. This creates an extremely dangerous condition during moderate to heavy rain as it leaves the driver with extremely poor visibility during critical driving conditions. The only way to speed up the wipers is to again cycle the switch which results in another 45 seconds of high speed operation. Again, this creates a dangerous situation by requiring the driver to repeatedly remove hands from the wheel during heavy precipitation. If left un-corrected this malfunction will most certainly be causal in injurious or fatal accidents.

I set my wipers to the speed that fits the weather conditions. However, after about 45 seconds the wipers automatically slow down. They are NOT rain sensing wipers. This is extremely dangerous during a heavy rain as they automatically slow down and you literally cannot see.

I live in southern Wisconsin and the rainy season is upon us. While driving in mild to hard rain on 35 MPG and 70 MPG roadways I've had the wipers stop or randomly slow where I can't see vehicles ahead of me. I have tried to manually change the setting quickly to try and engage adequate mode and had it continue to malfunction. This has happened in at least 4 separate incidents. Am concerned I will not be able to safety navigate to the offramp or side of road to safely wait for the rain to pass and ok to drive again. Bare minimum the top 3 speeds of the wiper controls should stay on unless driver manually choses intermittant option for road mist or light rain conditions. This is an accident and death waiting to happen. I will be alerting my local dealership of the issue and would expect Ford to issue a saftey recall for this asap.

We have had two major issues with this new Vehicle. It has less 1,872 miles on it and it is only about 2 months old. Within a week of owning it, the stabilizer bar went out and render the vehicle un drive able. We have a second issue that is even larger safety issue. The Vehicle is now dying and leaving you stranded on the side of the road. We have now had this happened to us three times on separate occasions. Once was on a trip back from Oklahoma to Dallas and the highway is under repair/construction and there are miles that there are only two lanes with no shoulder or exit to get off in case of auto problems. We found ourself at night that our Bronco lost total power and would not start back up. The vehicle has some kind of timer that will allow you to attempt to start it so many times in a period and then disable the ability to crank the engine. It gives you an error of "Cranking Time Exceeded" So where ever you are "Stuck on the highway in traffic, off the road on in your driveway, you will not be able to attempt to restart your motor if you exceed this time limit. This is a very dangerous issue and I feel many people could lose their life if they are in an situation where they can not attempt to start their motor and try to move to a safer location if the engin can be restarted.

When driving in heavy rain/sleet and you put the wipers on High (or even Low), they automatically switch to Intermittent after about 1 minute. They actually stop wiping at a high speed and pause between wipes for several seconds. In order to keep the wipers going you have to keep switching the wipers from Low to High to keep them moving. This is a safety hazard since you honestly cannot see though the windshield. This is a major safety issue, and makes driving in bad weather even more hazardous. Ford should be required to fix the wiper motor on these vehicles.

Wipers go to an intermittent state while in the constant wipe positions. Both low and high speed.

The intermittent wiper feature stops. Even when I turn the wiper control to “on low speed setting” (Not intermittent or rain sensing) the wipers stop after a short time then resume as it they are on an intermittent setting. This occurs in light rain, drizzle, and heavy downpours. I can get the wipers to resume if I turn the wiper control knob. Then in a minute or two they stop again.
