Top 5 Things I HATE About My Ford Bronco

[@IReapZz95]

1:00 sound system sucks 2:38 front windows raddle over bumps when lowered only a bit to let fresh air in and when opening and closing the door 3:50 no rain gutter 5:49 no metal bumper (excluding outlands edition) 7:00 door fitment and aligment 8:30 glue residue gets on pain everytime the front panels are removed your welcome

[@ricksmith1382]

Not to mention built by spoiled rotten uaw. Much of the cost is tied up in uaw fat paychecks and ridiculous benefits. You are not getting much vehicle for your money. Stay away from ford, period.

As someone with the attention span of a pan-fish, thank you

[@junkyarddawgs9956]

There is a adjustment at the bottom of the door jamb to fix that window rattle. There is a KZbin video out on how to adjust it . The window wobble is because of the window not coming down fast enough to clear the weatherstripping, just slow down a tad when opening the door to allow for that window to clear the weatherstripping and it will not wobble as much. Ford is working on a fix so hopefully that will come soon.

[@danielraffa3730]

I work at ford. There is a tsb that fixes both of those issues under warranty, I've done a few of them

[@jayesbeautifulchaos2244]

My passenger side does this. I work at a ford dealership. Should I have them look at it? Or should I try the fix it yourself first? I don’t want to void a warranty by doing something wrong…

[@junkyarddawgs9956]

@@jayesbeautifulchaos2244 l would have Ford look at it first. Roll your window half way down and go for a ride and if it rattles when going over a rough road it needs to be adjusted. It should be covered under your warranty .

[@carrielikethemovie13]

this is interesting because i almost have the opposite problem; when i roll my window down (and back up), especially in the mornings, it squeals like crazy because it’s pressing too hard on the weatherstripping inside the door somewhere. not sure if it’s inside or outside yet, but i want to get them tinted and so i need to fix that first. thanks for sharing that.

[@tuppersdad]

Thank you for this. The window rattle is insane I feel like it's gonna break.

Looks great dude! I’m a Wrangler guy but it’s hard to ignore what Ford has done with this generation of the Bronco.

[@jessicaleighbuchanan]

I have a compass and I keep looking at the Broncos. It's hard not to admire what they have done!

[@ricksmith1382]

What ford has done? bronco is 45% foreign made. The remainder is US/CANADA (foreign). ford is not doing it. ford is relying more and more on foreign countries and workers in order to stay in business. Don't get ripped off.

It's an incredible improvement on the Jeep Wrangler top issues. Does Jeep have a bigger top down version? Like a convertible?

[@xlauriestarchildstudios7777]

Love it!

[@rachela3904]

I think the sound system is awesome! I can have the top off , have the sound all the way up and going down I-75 around 80mph and I can still hear the radio!

[@taylorkamerer6470]

I've had my Bronco for about 6 months also! TOTALLY agreed on the window rattle/stability. I understand why it's constructed that way; Jeep doors are impossibly heavy and hard to get off by yourself, also hard to store because of the bulkiness, so it's nice to have a compact/not so heavy door when playing. For me, my biggest two are: lack of overhead lighting/lighting around the gear shift. The lights above the rearview mirror essentially do nothing, and the car is too pricey not to have lighting around the gearshift in my opinion. Seems small--but even my base level cars before this had those features. Over all, I LOVE my Bronco, and hope to have it for a very long time. Such a cool car, and very easy to get over the dislikes with so many wonderful features (:

[@JacobRDoty]

Great points! Easy to add aftermarket LEDs and tap them into the existing wiring but hey I get what you mean! Maybe when they release the facelift 🤓

Uh should i get one? I really want it but im contemplating

[@shawndixon4536]

My wife and I just brought home a 4-door 2024 Outer Banks in Eruption green with glossy black roof 2 days ago. I have been playing around with the B/O sound system, but I also feel the same system in my wife's 2018 Audi RS3 is missing something also. Yet, my 2018 Colorado ZR2 extended cab with Bose system (no sub, since it doesn't fit the ext cab) hit nice for just speakers. As for the windows, I did notice a wobble but just thought I opened the door too quick and the window didn't roll down quick enough. And when I got home from work this morning, my first complaint was the water running off the roof. (Years ago we had a 2007 Wrangler Unlimited, and you're right, you never got dripped on.)

[@aliciamcginnis4590]

I have a Black Diamond - I 100% agree with 2 & 3. The radio bugged me at first because I had an amazing sound system in my Xterra, but i've kind of gotten used to it at this point.

[@rhondavalenzuella3196]

I have a black diamond as well and yes, 2 & 3 drive me insane lol 😂

[@mcrKirei]

Totally agree with you. Window rattle is unsettling and I worry about long term wear and tear. I actually love the design of the rear bumper, but it's lame that it's plastic. Over heading lighting is terrible. The other two for me are the lack of cup holders in the rear seats unless you opted for leather and no upper air vents in the back. I love my bronco, but I've spent some time trying to improve the passenger experience. The other thing is storage. But I'm less bothered there since I have lots of options to upgrade it.

[@krisa8649]

Great video, I always hope Ford sees consumers like us. First, I love my 2021 Outer Banks, it is 10x the vehicle my jeep was from handling, daily driver ride stability, interior options, retro looks. Agree, windows are very annoying & cheap. Dropping my hand behind the handle for a moment like a Mustang or slowing down as my dealer recommended didn't help the poor design. It makes the vehicle seem cheap when everyone gets in. I tell everyone it's my Wile E Coyote window system specially added from Ford. What the engineers need to do is walk down the hallway and talk to the Mustang design team. I have owned 5 from 2008 Shelby to my 2015 50th, drop beautifully and cleanly. My 2015 drops as soon as it senses my hand behind the handle, 2008 you have to operate the handle still works perfectly to this day. I would have thought this would have been fixed by 2022. I also hate the stereo in mine, my 2014 JK had a surprisingly kick butt stereo and sub from the factory. However, being a Ford for life girl, the crappy stereo systems are norm in their vehicles except my '02 Lincoln LS. I've reached out to Ford with owner feedback and they seem receptive. More of us should reach out in whatever way we can.

[@craiganderson2958]

I have a 21 Outer Banks Sasquatch with the 2.7, 22,000 miles. It's been flawless, the best vehicle I've ever owned. I have the B&O sound system and while I agree it's not top notch, I'm OK with it. I'm fine with the windows and bumper and don't have door alignment issues. I also don't have the sealant issues when removing the front roof panels.

[@ilc-nl3yy]

[@FredPollick]

Nice job. I have similar gripes with mine. It's also an Outer Banks. Overall, I love it, but I do believe some things weren't completely thought out. I'd also mention the lack of places to keep things up front. Some cars have little compartments, the Bronco could have made better use of the space. Reaching into the console behind your elbow, or stretching to the other side for the distant glove box isn't exactly ideal while driving. Obviously, not a deal breaker, but it can be a minor inconvenience. I do agree with all your points. It is fun to drive though! Take care man.

[@juliajohnson6562]

Wish it had the cubby that goes in between the center counsel like the Nissan rouge has. Would be so helpful

[@joelsolo302]

Bro. I have told about a thousand people about the window rattle. Makes the thing feel cheap. I wouldnt care at all if it wasn't the first thing I experience when getting in or out. But why has no one mentioned the fact that this thing only has 2 cup holders?! My wifes Honda has 184 cup holders just in case. Maybe everyone else that owns one doesn't have kids so it's not a big deal. But put 3 kids in the back with a McDowell's happy meal and tell them to jam the cup in the door cargo net so it squeezes the top off. Mistake! Get me more cup holders! PS. The sound system blows like the wind. Reminds me of my '95 Wrangler with only 2- 4" factory speakers. Thanks Ford for perpetuating all the love/hate things in my life.

[@WalknSuccess]

I appreciate your perspective on this vehicle. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA and now reside in Olathe, KS and when you said you have mods waiting but its too cold to put them on I laughed. Too cold he says, lmao. I hope your still loving your Bronco, I am in the market for a manual transmission one.

[@wadeboardman]

Glad I’m not the only one who noticed the window rattling while driving with the windows partially open! Not a deal breaker but I haven’t seen many people talk about it! I just roll them all the way down now or only crack them on smooth roads.

It's so bad that I won't drive down the highway unless the windows are all the way down or all the way up. And when you close the doors it sounds like the windows are going to fall off. My husband has frameless on his mustang and they don't rattle.

I went from the bronco sport to a 2024 Ford Bronco and I love it. I'm fine with the stereo and I'm a huge music person....mainly metal. I do agree with the driver's window. I HATE that rattle. At times, when I go over train track crossings, it sounds like the window is going to rattle out to pieces. It's pretty bad. Like you said, l need to keep it closed, half down, or just about an inch down.

[@chrisanderson5046]

I am considering purchasing a Ford Bronco, so thanks for making this video. The small issues highlighted here remind me of the struggles I have heard some mention about the Badlands model. I currently own a 2018 VW Tiguan with 140k+ miles on it (and its only issue has been a parking brake switch that broke!), and I never had a "fun" vehicle - but I've loved Broncos for a long time. I will keep researching the Bronco, because I really want one for taking mountain bikes, camping gear into the mountains.

[@JacobRDoty]

All vehicles have their quirks, nothing is perfect but this is a GREAT vehicle. It’s been dead nuts reliable and has been able to get me ANYWHERE I want to go with confidence. Snow, dirt, mud, etc. it does it with comfort and style. Throw a hitch mount bike rack and you’re set!

I only have a week with my brinco and I’m like “ yes, yes, yes” to all that lol! But i love my bronco ❤

[@JUMBOs-RC]

I'd like a full-framed door/solid permanent hardtop roof option

[@johndanasy]

I have my Bronco for almost a year now, I fixed most to the problem myself like the hardtops popping noise, for the door mirror delay, you just need to handle it more gently, dealers can’t do nothing about it!

[@JacobRDoty]

What was your popping noise? Was it from the front or the back? I'm thinking I'm getting almost a cracking type noise in the rear when I hit a big enough bump

[@johndanasy]

Mine located on the front panel above the passenger side, it raddled and sounded like popping corn. But I did fix it, honestly it depends on case by case. For the mirror delay, luckily for me it only happens on the passenger side for both doors. But I kinda have the idea why they bang like that: it’s the seal bar between the roof and mirrors, on the passenger side it’s lower than the driver side, I think I can fix it by raising the bar higher, but it can a painful process 😅😅😅

[@bumyoon]

I definitely share some of the same dislikes about the vehicle. I happened to sell my Bronco today, and while looking over it before the pick up, I was reminded of the door alignment issue. WIndow rattle is terrible and it did keep me from cracking open my window, because the first couple of times it happened, I thought the something inside was seriously loose. I've never had the gooey seal issue with the top though. Just like you mentioned, at the end of the day, Bronco is definitely fun to drive and an overall a good experience. I wouldn't trade it for any other vehicle that I could afford..... i just happen to be waiting on my Heritage Edition to be built!. Good luck and I look forward to seeing more about your build.

[@SmoothBrain23]

I'll tell you if you make that window tighter then take the vehicle off-road you will bust the window when you hit some serious rough patches. I'd recommend upgrading your suspension.

Not so fast. My bought new 2020 Jeep Wrangler Sport with the hardtop rattled like crazy. I was able to pinpoint the rear glass causing it. I had to smear silicon grease on the rubber seal to stop the sound. Then both the passenger and driver side sun visors simple snapped off while driving and were swinging loose in front of our faces. It’s a known issue with most of the new Jeeps. There’s even a company that makes a metal piece that bolts over the top of the mount because the Jeep won’t fix it. Then the engine rattled at low throttle horribly. I ended up selling it before it was too late.

Automakers need to return to having vent windows in vehicles. Don't have to open the primary window to move some air around the cabin.

[@robertgolden1080]

You could make a rain gutter for it. There has to be after market support for the bumper. I personally own a Jeep WJ Grand Cherokee. I’ve done a lot of work to it. I constantly have people ask me how or where they can get some of the gadgets I have on it. I tell them I make them work, which I do. There is plenty of support for the Wranglers, they are practically made so people can modify them. With the early Cherokee’s we are adding and doing things to them that were never meant to be done. Lift kits, big tires, steel bumpers with winches, roof racks with lights and accessories. That kind of stuff… That’s part of the fun with them though. There’s always a work around. Nice Bronco. Thanks for sharing

[@skeeter9252]

Hummm, I have the Wildtrak and it also has the plastic rear bumper. No where in accessories did they offer a metal rear bumper as far as I know. As for the sound system, yeah it lacks bass, but most new cars and trucks sound systems suck anyway and if you pay for the factory upgrade your paying about twice as much as an aftermarket system that you can customize. The top must be unique for you cause mine doesn't do that at all. Drip rail is hit and miss anyway, we live in California where it hardly rains (except this year) so rain or moisture is not really anything to worry about!!

I’m not knocking Ford, it’s just a reality that Ford has some serious quality control issues that’s costing them billions of dollars fixing warranty issues. As far as off road performance and ability goes, I don’t see a significant difference between Wranglers and Bronco’s. If I was buying a new Jeep or Bronco I buy the one that gave me the best deal.

[@MrDufDaddy]

The best stock sound system I've ever had in this genre off SUV was in my 2011 FJ Cruiser that had their premium JBL system. That thing shook the Earth! God I miss rocking Tool in that monster. As for the window rattle, I think this just a general issue with frameless windows. My 370Z had frameless windows and I had the same cringe moments so it was always either all the way down or not.

They should have just made it have a fixed roof and non-removable doors. That’s why the windows rattle and it is why the sound system sucks (speaker placement). It’s why there is no rain gutter. All that just to take the doors off, which most people won’t do.

Try dynamat Or similar product on the exterior door skin inside the door underneath the door panels everywhere you have a speaker you will be amazed by what dynamat does for a stock sound system and when you upgrade to a better speaker they will sound even better yet i saw a test display set up with some oem speakers with sound insulation And with out it sounds better than most of the basic upgraded speakers without it. Will reduce road noise too you can get a roll of Killmat for $70 (Just as good as dynamat)

I have a tesla long range model 3. I think it has one of the best stock stereos I've ever heard. I test drove a bronco with the B&O radio, I thought it was nearly just as good, maybe not as loud. Sure I've heard better after market setups. But personally, I thought the B&O was pretty good. I'm sure with all the doors off and the top off it'll lose some of its loudness... But I couldn't complain.

[@gnurmi]

See my comment from today. He has a cubby pocket on the right side where I have a sub and a speaker grille. I think he has his sub deleted, which may explain the lack of depth he talks about. I heard my B&O system a couple weeks back when my daughter was driving it and could feel the bass from about 30 ft away and the people I was standing with commented about how good it sounded. Crazy how varies the opinions are.

Glad I got the Bronco Raptor. Have none of these issues outside the sound system, but I don’t listen to a lot of music so not a problem for me.

[@JoshuaFitch]

I ordered a Bronco in 21 (Outer Banks) and still don't have it! I was pushed to 23 a few months ago, how it comes through. Question - how is the road noise with a hard top? It will be my daily driver and I make a lot of handsfree calls while driving. Will that be an issue in your experience?

[@JacobRDoty]

Perfectly fine for calls while driving. The sound clarity on the other end is great too

[@garthwiebe574]

I have a wildtrak and I love it !!!

[@uberallex]

I have a 22 Ford Expedition Timberline and the driver door has the gap too. I haven’t had time to take it back to the dealership but will be taking it soon.

[@martharebellerebel-qx3rk]

My seat belts don’t retract, also I keep hitting the door lock when I get out, it’s in a stupid place. And locks doors. Drives really nice. Also what I don’t like is the gas gauge, if the west sun is coming in your window, you can’t read the gauge, looks like your empty..only have 3,000 miles on mine, just took 3 people to airport, was shocked 3 check in size bgs, fit in the back perfect. Was proud of my little bronco.. also, was blown away when I had my brights on, and they dimmed by themselves when a car was coming.

[@ericgomez6540]

Bronco looks good, man! Agreed on rain gutter and rear bumper.

[@Khmarth]

The difference is the 4.7 axle ratio on the wild track you really only need sway bar disconnect if you don’t have enough ground clearance which wildtrak suspension comes with - added 1.5 inches of lift or buy quick disconnects easy

[@briankuennen9959]

Sound system was brutal. I added a JL subwoofer and amp to mine. Sounds great now. I have the soft top and it bugs me a little that my back windows have a wave in them.

[@JedBeUpInHere]

Could I get a link to the sub and amp you got?

[@kellysteitz9050]

Love my bronco but I have some small issues as well. I’ve only had it for the winter so far so I haven’t been cracking my windows just yet. A few things that have been bothering me… the rain streaming down into the car from the roof feels like a waterfall. The seat warmers get so hot so fast you can only leave it on for about 30 seconds before it’s uncomfortable. And the step getting in and out is placed in an odd position and makes it a bit awkward.

[@jadriangarner6374]

I really hate that window raddle on my bronco when I have the window 1/4 down while driving

[@RhyanSmithRhynoStrong]

Mine is bad too 😢

[@Rabbit086]

THANK YOU for talking about the sound system

[@80H_d]

Only one i have on my 22WT4dr is the window rattle. I have a soft top, and one of the rear latches (for raising the back end of it) broke, so it needs to be manually opened and closed when closing the back end. I also offroaded I guess a little hard, since my rearview is loose now

[@mothandmoon2222]

As a huge music person I agree on the music. I hate that there are barely any interior lights. My kid has to open his door at night in order to see his seatbelt buckle. It’s the little things they missed the mark on.

[@marytorbert5212]

Have a Jeep Gladiator and it has a killer sound system!! We absolutely love it. We also love Ford, and were looking at a Bronco.

[@el_covfefe]

To have a inadequate Bang and Olufsen system is criminal for the price point

[@uncannyrecovery3980]

Pavement princess or not, ur rig is absolutely gorgeous

[@74shelia]

Thanks for the review. I was thinking about getting one

[@WAYNENYC100]

You made very good point that are not trivial. Thanks to you I won't be buying it. Appreciate the great info.

[@ArmandoMorales325]

My 95 bronco has less issues than this thing and it's definitely been used. These quality control issues are bad! It makes me feel so good owning a older truck.

[@ubeuonly]

If you've ever satid one and touched the components and fell one of those doors open and close you would realize how desperate these people are to justify such a tiny vehicle if so underwhelming but they have to justify the money that they spent. Is very sad, it's like putting your kids to an Ivy League College they can't do simple math. This thing is just less than the sum of his Parts. Anjeanette hype made this vehicle possible and now people are embarrassed that they pay 60 to $100,000 for this thing with so many other cars on the road, and a very small fraction of these will ever see dirt. Just go to the dealership and try to get in and out of the thing front or rear seats and then just take a look to the left that'll look to the right and ask yourself is this something I could use everyday, Eddie answer would be no if you're honest

[@jtdove17]

@@ubeuonly All new vehicles are expensive. Ford still sells the heck out the bronco. Not my fault you're broke.

[@ubeuonly]

@@jtdove17 sorry loser but I have more land and vehicles than you and your family combined, the difference is I'm a 25-year Ford technician and I know a little something from working on cars my whole life, and I know when the internet hype job when I see it as the customers keep coming through the drive and complaining about the uselessness and the recalls of their Bronco

[@markhammerstrom3395]

The window rattle annoys the hell out of me (on both front doors) as well but even more annoying thing to me is the Sun Visor. You can not see stop lights and covers to much of the windshield. My friend found a solution, tinted 4 inches on top the windshield. That is my next plan. Thanks for the video.

[@louishooks9022]

Appreciate the video, I'm thinking of buying a Bronco myself, I wonder if some of these issues were addressed and changed by this time, like you, my music has to be Pumpin'. Thinking of getting Wildtrak with Sasquatch package, if its not already standard on the Wildtrak

[@greasyhitchball]

Buy the Bronco. Just got my 2023 and love it. 4 door, Outer Banks, sasquatch, hardtop with mid and high package. Has accessory switches. $52,700 plus tax and tags.

[@andykepner9785]

I have a 2021 Badlands with the Lux package. The sound is great. I also don’t have a window rattle issue.

[@pamelameehan2272]

THANK YOU! I wish someone had made a video like this before I bought my Land Rover, Velar!!!

[@rancosteel]

Bang & Olufsen was never known for deep bass. They were known for design, materials, performance and hi-fidelity not club level loudspeakers.

[@andycason1560]

I saw another video showing this. There is a button to hit on your remote before you open the door that cracks the window to eliminate that glass rattle you're showing.

[@Hewx2]

Keep in mind the OBX is the more street worthy comfortable trim. It’s understandable it doesn’t have a metal bumper.

[@robg2678]

DO NOT BUY. Mine has an electrical issue the dealer and Ford have not been able to correct, or issue a recall on. The daytime running lights, interior lights, do not shut off when the car has been shut off. Twice I had to disconnect the battery to correct the problem. The other times it meant starting and stopping the engine a few times and re-locking the doors until the computer knew to shut the lights off.

[@JacobRDoty]

Weird! That’s the first time I’ve heard of this issue. Sounds like you’re well on your way for Lemon Law and getting a new vehicle out of it.

[@chrishiggins9640]

My explorer did the same thing…went away when I put a new battery in. Perhaps you got a faulty battery…

[@VictorMartinez-dv9cf]

could be a bcm module issue

[@Khmarth]

That actually could be a battery the ecu sometimes will do that shit weird sometimes on Nissan models when the alternator goes out the dash cluster goes everywhere lol lights as well

[@samdog1232000]

Lemon law it or get an attorney

[@miken8336]

Hopefully Ford will fix these issues, since we have been holding off on the Broncos, Tankx for the honesty.

[@dimassalazar906]

I have a Jeep Gladiator Mojave. It's so versatile. Haven't found anything to hate so far after a year. It has a lot more power than a Toyota Tacoma. I was looking at a Bronco just for a change of pace. With a lift and tires I'm wondering about the horsepower.
