Duties of vs expected role of Ford’s Social Media Team on this Forum

Most users of this Forum have seen the @Ford Motor Company ‘user’ (Ford’s ‘Social Media Team’) or have had a reason to interact with them.

You may also have seen or used the phone number for the Ford call center representative.

And some owners in this Forum have expressed the wish that they could connect with a genuine Ford Motor Company employee to resolve the issues they have with their Ford.

Do you know the roles and responsibilities of each of the above? Do you know…

Changing room privacy screen from Ford accessory

Changing room privacy screen from Ford accessory
I haven’t seen this here. Cheep little changing room from Ford parts. It has a privacy screen to put up in the bronco and just clips to the wheel well and the roof rack. Got it for the kids to use at beach etc to change and what not. Seems like good quality. Comes w stakes if your going to be anywhere for a while day or something.

I think I have changed my mind

I was planning on buying a 2025 badlands Sasquatch, In researching the reason the 24 model gets 250 H.P and the 25 model only get 238H.P I found that the 25 have a fuel particulate filter. I have a semi and I am very aware of the particulate filters on those, they have to be clean and maintained. There’s a lot of sensors to them if they go out they cost about $4000. There’s a lot of drawbacks to a particular filter so because of this, I think I’m out, do some research on the particulate…

How to Retrofit ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) to Bronco Sport — Modification / Install Guide (DIY Writeup & Video))

This is a detailed write-up on how to retrofit ACC to Bronco Sport. The retrofit will work with both 1.5L and 2.0 Bronco Sport because the vehicle platform is the same (Ford C2).

Thank you for everyone’s patience, I was dealing with a job relocation and moving for the past few months.

I have done a total of 20,000 miles of driving on both highways and the city. Apart from Lane centering not working as of right now, everything else should work. I will post more detailed photos under this…

GOAT mode switch replacement

Hopefully this will help somebody now or down the road.

Bronco Sport ( and maybe regular Bronco as well)with the GOAT mode switch in the console/next to the cup holders. This has to be one of the worst designs ever so congrats Ford on that stupidity.

The switch is right there and only has a trim piece on top around the turn knob. So it is not a sealed switch at all and again right next to the cup holders.

The wife spilled coffee on the console and the GOAT modes quit working surprise…

What’s the ratio of Badlands to all other trims ?

Is it just me or does it look like only 1 out of 10 Bronco Sports are Badlands trim? I literally stumbled onto a car lot and parked right next to the Badlands I ended up with here… and yes, purchased back last April when mark ups were all the rage, ugh. Admittedly I caved into a $3k mark up, but hell my 11 year old Ram was literally on its last legs so got some of that mark up back on that trade in … lol

Of course being on this forum and having taken my Bronco Sport out and about on…

Installing Hitch Bicycle Rack and Fat Bike to 2023 Bronco Sport

NEW TO FAT BIKING!

Happy with the 1UP USA “Equip’D” hitch bike rack. Very easy to mount to the car, so there is no need to leave it mounted to the vehicle when not hauling a bicycle.

So simple to mount a bike and go. Lots of clearance. Designed to accept up to a 4.5″ tire out of the box.

The Bronco Sport sensor lets out a loud screech inside the cabin when turning the engine over because the rear sensor view is blocked, but it quickly stops.

2025 Front Lower Bumper

Now that ‘25 sports are being delivered and spotted around, does anyone know if the new Black diamond/Sasquatch front lower bumper would be able to be retrofitted to 21-24 sports?

Issue with Key Fob Alert on My 2023 Bronco Sport Outer Banks

Hi everyone,

I hope this is the right place to post! I spent about 30 minutes searching the forum for similar posts but couldn’t find anything helpful, so I thought I’d ask directly.

I have a 2023 Bronco Sport Outer Banks and, like most of us, got two key fobs from the dealer. Since I’m always traveling and don’t really have a secure place to store the spare, I usually carry both key fobs with me. I don’t feel comfortable leaving the spare with someone else, so I wanted a solution to keep…

Passenger side headlight not turning on and or not going off

2023 BS Bad Lands : issue with passenger side headlight. First it would not turn on. After a so called “ recalibration “ at the ford dealer. The issue was fixed. Until two days after a power module software update by the ford dealer was performed, the passenger side headlight would stay on for 5 min or more after the engine was shut down. Restarting the engine and promptly turning it off would fix the issue.The not turning off issue happened twisted so far. Making another appointment with…
