Last time we talked about road trips and found that everyone pays great attention to car maintenance, and pre-trip checks are an essential part of the process (checking tire pressure, rims, car battery, changing oil, etc.). In daily life, what vehicle conditions do you guys care about most, for safety reasons or personal hygiene needs?

Rear wheel engaged at freeway speed
When I get upto highway speed the powertrain shows that the rear unit is still engaged and sending power to one of the rear wheels. I thought it should disengage at that speed, especially when letting off the gas to stop accelerating. And I’m not sure why one wheel. I’m not getting any errors.

Center console extender for pet carrier
I built a simple center console extender/pet carrier support that wedges between the rear seat and the back of the center console. It keeps the carrier level with the console. I also added nylon webbing tied into the child seat anchors to keep it from sliding or coming forward under…
We have a Dachshund and use a long pet carrier on road trips. We like placing it between the front seats so we can keep an eye on him, but the center console isn’t long enough to support the rear of the carrier.

2024 BSBB – is there a good brake upgrade available?
I suppose there may be better pads available, but I’m also wanting to look at installing a heavier duty set of…
2024 Bronco Sport Big Bend. We are about to move to a mountainous area that has steep switchbacks to our acreage and I also tow occasionally. I am wondering if there is a better set of brakes that I can install. Does the Badlands or other model have a more robust braking system than the basic Big Bend model; or alternatively, is there a heavy duty aftermarket set available?

Transmission Replacement at 77k Miles
Here’s where it got weird. Turned it off and back on and the engine ran just fine, but when it was in Drive, it acted like it was still in Park. When I put it in Neutral it started to idle forward and would even pick up speed if I tapped the gas. I was very close to home, less than a mile, so this is…
I was driving home from a short trip when my ’21 Bronco Sport Badlands shuddered right in the middle of an intersection and stopped moving entirely. Some helpful folks pushed me out of the way.

Rear view camera
display works properly for all other functions. Thanks in advance.
When starting my BS OBX I get a message on the display stating “rear view camera is not working, see dealer for service.” When I select reverse gear the display screen goes completely black. Has anyone else had this experience? I’m asking for advice. The
display works properly for all other functions. Thanks in advance.
Installed: Rear Seatback Cargo Bags by XG Cargo (Review)
TL;DR (mostly) quality purchase. Lots of great detachable storage. Minor install frustration. Recommended
1 Why?
I needed to use my ‘21 purchase Ford points before they expired. Tried to find something that wasn’t too much money out of pocket or that I actually wanted. Ford’s accessory site seems to have taken a huge hit with tariffs as there is now a fraction of what was there when I casually shopped for…
