2nd water pump failing

During a routine oil change on our 23 Sport my tech told our second water pump is starting to leak. First water pump was replaced at 10,000. Second one is going bad at 45,000 miles. Warranty will cover it but that’s beside the point. So far: water pump failures, sway bar and both rear shocks replaced. Not including factory recalls. This vehicle never leaves the hard surfaced hwys. If my wife didn’t like driving this car I don’t know if I’d keep it. We keep saying “as long as we don’t have…

Winter is coming! How do you clear the snow on your vehicle??

Winter is just around the corner, and with it comes the challenge every car owner dreads – snow removal! Whether it’s a light dusting or a full-on snowstorm, clearing snow off your car can be a real hassle.

We know everyone has their own tricks for tackling this frosty task. Some of you might use trusty snow brushes, others might grab whatever’s handy (hello, credit cards!), while some of you might even wait for the sun to take care of it. But here’s the thing – do you remember to…

4wd error

2021 broncosport badlands
I tried perusing the forums for this issue and forgive me if this has been covered. I am. At 63k miles ( of course right outside the warranty window)and this evening on the way home from work I got a million messages from the bronco. Essentially everything except for front wheel drive turned off. 4wd turned off, no hill start assist, no climb assist, no front collision assist, no goat modes, no hold park assist.
The Bronco is shifting normally, no transmission…

Bronco Sport 2025 – Click noise on driver seat

Hello,

Has anyone else experienced this issue? The video shows the problem at its worst. I found a loose screw on the rail, and while tightening it made the issue happen less frequently, it hasn’t gone away completely. I would really like to get this fixed permanently.

Any ideas are welcome.

FIVE 17-in pristine Motegi rims with snow tires – Motor City MI

Hi everyone, I am selling my custom winter wheels (a wheel is a rim with TPMS/centering ring, and a tire), in excellent working condition with no curb rash nor dents. I am asking for $750 or Best Offer. I’m an absolute fanatic about my rims and tires. I always buy them assembled, mounted and balanced, from TireRack. When I get them I put them thru my oddly obsessive protocol, first waxing both the faces and bowls with Mothers Carnauba wax, and then permanently attaching the centering rings…

Remote start inconsistent

Now that it’s really cold here (-20 C) overnight, and our Bronco Sport came without a block heater I’ve been using the remote start (app or fob) to let it run a bit or warm it up before driving. I find the remote start feature (app or fob) to be quite inconsistent. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Any thoughts?

Make it Make Sense – TSB for Brake Moan Noise in Reverse

Hi everyone,

New to this forum, and unfortunately, my first post isn’t a positive one. I purchased my 2021 Bronco Sport new from the dealership during the height of the pandemic in 2021—meaning I paid a premium. Since day one, I’ve had a persistent issue: the brake squeal that most of us are aware of.

I took the vehicle to various dealers three times under warranty to have it fixed, only to be told that brakes are a “wearable part” and wouldn’t be covered. One shop…

Remote Start – heated seats not working

Hi everyone,
this is not my first Bronco and never noticed a problem.
Now (Outer Banks 2024), when remote starting, the heated seats won’t come on / are still cold after idling for a while.
Settings: Remote Start is “ON”
climate control “Auto” (it’s -20 outside)
Seats: Auto

Some posts/sites suggest controlling it from the steering wheel menu … well, there is nothing leading to auto start / climate control.

Any Suggestions… please!

Thanks  

How Do the Stock Tires Do In The Snow?

I’m wondering how the stock Good Year Territory RT 235/65R17 all terrain tires do in the snow and ice. Can I just keep these tires and put the GOAT mode into slippery mode for light to moderate snow OR do I need to purchase dedicated winter tires?
