2021 FORD BRONCO SPORT Complaints

Purchased 2021 Ford Bronco Sport in 9/21 and was made aware of safety recall from Ford in 12/21 stating problem with front brakes to be repaired 2nd quarter of 2022. Took vehicle to dealership 4/22 and replaced front pads only. Took vehicle back 2 weeks later due to grinding noise coming from brakes and reduced braking distance. When the vehicle was inspected told nothing is wrong when clearly the vehicle is not safe.

When trying to start my new Ford Bronco with 3000 miles on it in my driveway , the vehicle would not start and there were no lights on the dashboard , everything was black . When the vehicle was jumped , it started , but the console and radio was still black and when you put the car in drive it just stalled out. The tow truck came and could not put the vehicle in neutral so he had to drag the car onto the bed of the truck . It was taken to the dealership and they had the vehicle for a week and said they could not find a problem and after a few days the vehicle just started working. I read online that this same incident is happening to many Bronco owners and this is something that really needs to be fixed by Ford.

The car is stalling on hills!then the car restarts and goes!my auto parking brake automatically comes on and you cannot get it to release! And I have notice the car wanting g to ride to the right of the rd !

The windshield is weak, I have 3 cracks and multiple divets within 6 months of purchase.

Loud screeching noise when backing up, seems to be harder to stop when applying brakes when needed to make a quick stop, been to dealer and he told me that the noise was normal! And couldn’t duplicate the reduced braking issue!

When I drive in reverse at any speed, there is a very loud noise. When I got my last oil change I told the repair tech at my Ford Dealer and he said he didn’t hear it. I took it home and now it is worse, and extremely loud.

I was driving and a warning came up on the driver console that the I believe blind spot detection system malfunctioned (it happened really fast) and some of the lights on the dash went off. Then everything went dark on the dash and center console screen. The center console screen just said "Vehicle Network Communication Error". I turned off the car and the car would not turn back on after that. This happened while driving and could be very dangerous while driving especially at night. The Pictured attached is with the car on, before I turned it off. Once I turned it off that screen stayed on all night with that message with a few accessory lights.
