Squealing Noise From Rear Brakes

This is an old topic, but was wondering are owners of newer Bronco Sports are still experiencing “moaning” from rear brakes when backing up vehicle in wet and/or colder weather? I understand that the cause is surface rust on brakes and noise stops after driving. I had thought this issue had been resolved, but I have a ’25 Big Bend and having the same issue. I thought there was a TSB which fix problem, but can’t find what the solution was. The dealership said it was the materials used for…

No start with random warning lights

So about 20 minutes ago I stopped at a gas station for gas and when I turn my car back on it didn’t start. And about four warning lights came on. The first one was coolant over temperature warning even though it wasn’t and I could clearly see the cooling temperature gauge was fine. The car been running fine and it hadn’t been over temp before that and it’s about 50° out. I’m in Phoenix. Also I saw parking aid was out and I believe two other ones that I didn’t read. I should have taken a…

I wanted to share something helpful

I just bought a 2022 Badlands and had a drive of 80 miles back from Safford VW in Fredericksburg, VA where this Bronco Sport was traded in. I have been using STP Ceramic Oil Treatment in the 2018 Mustang I traded in and also in the 2024 Escape my wife drives. It instantly quieted down both engines. I got 2-3 MPG better in my Mustang and 4-5 better MPG in the Escape. Wife drives really slow and we are in Northumberland County, Virginia where the population is only 12,000 people so, really…

Bug/rock deflector?

I’d really like to get one for my new 2025 Badlands, but have seen a few people say they chatter on the hood. Can those who have one please comment? We drive back and forth from CA to AZ monthly, and already got a small indentation from a rock on the windshield, on the very 1st drive!

I am now a Bronco Sport owner!

I bought a 2022 White Badlands Bronco Sport today. I got one with the features I wanted…Heated steering wheel & seats, B&O sound system, navigation and the 2.0 Badlands engine. Bought from a VW dealer in Fredericksburg, VA. 38,600 miles with a price of $25,000 and a trade of $11,500 on my 2018 Ecoboost Mustang with 104,000 miles. Pretty good deal to me. My first time driving a Bronco Sport. It rides pretty good. Dealer put new tires on it.

Red fluid leak

Hi there! Just did an oil change and noticed some red fluid at the bottom of the rad. Have any of you Badlands owners run into this?
