As an owner of a BS badlands I just wanted to give my experience. I don't like how traction control can't be turned off entirely, but I've learned to work with it. With software updates, ford may fix that annoyance in the future. The bottle opener wasn't thought out, but who uses one or buys a car because of it anyway? The tire storage wasn't thought out, but I never need to open it unless I'm changing a tire. I've parked on a lot of uneven roads and curbs and my trunk has never had a problem closing. No door rattling for my BS. No head light noise. The engine sounds terrible! sometimes I think somethings wrong, but that's just how it sounds. A S&B cold air intake helps it sound better. I haven't broken a windshield yet, but a small physics lesson. Because the window doesn't have much of an angel, the force of an object hitting the windshield is much greater than if it hits an angled windshield. My badlands doesn't have the back up brake noises. Aftermarket JCR off road Skid plates and rock slider definitely save your bumper, catalytic converter and fuel lines. Should've been standard on the badlands, but whatever. Overall I really wish I had this car sooner, but that's what makes me enjoy even more. There are lots of reports of issues with bronco sports (mostly the 1.5L models) but I haven't had any issues and I absolutely love mine. Sorry that was long, but maybe this will help someone who's trying to decide if this is the right car for them.

The traction control is turning off but the torque management is what is doing that. It isn’t the traction control causing this issue.

Use “Sand” mode when you don’t want any throttle cut. I find that’s the only mode that works when you want deliberate wheel spin without any computer intervention. This works great in the mud, climbing hills. Also, this is a unibody design. EVERY unibody SUV flexes as demonstrated with the rear hatch - can’t be avoided. Plastic is lightweight and good enough for the vast majority out there. Adding a skid plate works.

My 2021 Big Bend was making the same horrible howling brake noise when backing up. Ford issued a service bulletin for this problem. Take it to your local dealership and they will install new rear caliper bushings covered under warranty. It seem to stop that horrible noise coming from the brakes on my bronco sport.

I have a Big Bend. 19 months and 16000 miles and still very happy with it. Zero warranty issues. I have experienced the brake noise, but only after driving in a fair amount of snow then parking in garage. The next day they squeal when backing out of garage. Not a big deal to me. Mine has no squeaks or rattles. A little road noise but that’s it. Told friends and family that the only time I would go off reading is if I missed a curve😁 Combined mileage is a little under 27 mpg.

Have you tried manual mode in those situations where you lost throttle control like the mudding incident? Just curious if that would be a better solution than letting the computer control which gear you were in as well as cutting off throttle.

I just bought a ‘23 Sport Outer Banks for grocery getting and going to the lake on the weekends. 😂 (Replaced an ‘09 Murano). I didn’t need a truck for muddin’. I drive highways and put on less than 8Kmiles/annually. The big selling feature for me was that my dog kennel fits in the back without wasted space (no slanted rear view window). #2 feature- It makes tight u-turns, which is essential when trying to get a good parking spot in a lot. #3 - Ample storage for luggage/cooler - even with the dog kennel) for our weekend get-always. #4 - I love the aesthetics.

Do you had any problem with the suspension? Thank you for your videos keep it up

Even my 14 escape had the tailgate issue every model on this platform does as far as I know, I have se issue on the door sound too,. Also same with the brake squeal was freaking out when I first heard it cuz I was doing some medium level mudding. I do love my Badlands too got it July. 15 2022 and have 5000 miles now and love it have a full size on order but it's been on order since June of 2021 don't expect it in 2023 either but this is so perfect for me I'll probably just sell the full size after I get to drive it for a little bit and keepy bs badlands it's all I need and better gas mpg, easier to park, fits iny garage and much more.

The engine on mine sometimes makes this odd high-pitched growling noise when de-accelerating. Any ideas about what that is or how to fix it?

2021 Bronco sport outer Banks, over 46,000 miles. Only issue is brake noise backing up, and had a vibration when turning right. TSB said it was the rear end and they changed the differential fluid and it stopped. Ford said if it comes back I'll need a new differential.

When you replaced your windshield did you get Ford glass or aftermarket?

i’ve had mine for almost a year and my only purpose is that i think it’s the sexiest car i’ve ever seen & had to have it 😂 only issue i’ve encountered is the recalls - no actual issues

I don't put as much hard-core off road that you do, but I've not had many of these issues. Drifting in Anza borrego sand was easy in Sand mode with traction control off (basic not holding down button but thanks didn't know that). Windshield is for sure an issue, pebble within 3 weeks of ownership, and a glass tech said this stuff is brittle.

I wish the rear brake "squeal" was like yours. The one we experience EVERY time you back up is the T-REX scream after breaking out in Jurassic Park. It's bad, and I've received confirmation that Ford's technical bulletin is a load a bull to fix it. Still happens afterwards sometimes.

I’ve got a 21 Big Bend that was squealing everytime I got in or slowed down with light input. May try changing the brakes to a better quality kit like Stoptech z16, z23, or z35 kits. I’ve had good luck. The kits change the rotor and pads to performance oriented ones and it’s stopped all the squeal on mine. My parents have a 22 Outer banks that had a similar but slightly different squeal and still do. I think it has to do with either the quality of the pads, rotors, or both.

If you watch when the floor is lifted up all the way it’s actually pulled out where it would be past the bumper while being lifted

LED headlights have a fan on the back of them to dissipate energy bc they don’t use as much as incandescent bulbs, but automotive wiring has changed much so the extra energy is usually run into a resistor or fan to dissipate it off

#6 drives me nuts as well! Do you find that your headlight have dark spot in them? Hard to explain but I guess it would be right on the edge of the low beam pattern and is also there with high beams on, really noticeable in an uphill left hand corner.

I had a 19 jeep Cherokee that did that. It’s helpful in town, just seems silly to let it do that somewhere your at speed.

My windshield has broken twice since 2021, the guy at the windshield service center told me that it is a thing where Ford, and Subaru, purchased the cheapest windshields they could get. Also, when backing up at night, mostly cold nights, the license plate lights and the exhaust block the view of the rear view camera. It's just another thing Ford did not think through. My Bronco sport also has the rear brake squeal which the dealership said is also a thing.

They can be kind of expensive but they usually last quite a bit longer than normal pads and rotors

Thats Ford for ya. Cheap parts, cheap material, numerous problems and recalls. I had a 2020 Escape which is basically the same everything. 34,000 miles it needed a new transmission. The day I scheduled the appt to get it diagnosed is when the Engine Fire recall about the injectors came out. Cancelled the appt. Drove to the dealer and traded it in. Recall #5 in a little over a year of ownership and a new trans before 100,000 miles i ridiculous. Fords quality is going downhill with no brakes and every one of their models prove it. I went with the Equinox after the Escape and got the 2.0T model with the factory towing. Flawless. Bought it with 4,000 miles and it now has 37,000 miles and not one issue. Mechanical or quality. As it should be with a vehicle under 100,000 miles. I (Family and Friends as well) will never look at Ford again.

They are full of shite. Brakes are never supposed to squeal like that. There is an aftermarket kits that I’ve had good luck with on a few cars with similar problems. Stoptech Z16, Z23, or Z35 pad/rotor kits. I’ve got z23s on the front of my 21 big bend, and z35s (bc they are for towing) on the back. No more squealing that I’ve noticed. I think it’s more Ford cheaper out on the brakes to make the car cheaper, both to produce and sell. Mine had bad squeal not if you were hard on brakes, but if you were light on them slowing down. Shouldn’t have to use the whole pedal to slow down, just light input. So far no issues.

I've found that when blasting through snow drifts, it will cut power so I went to mud and locked the diffs, no power cut by computer. Slippery is for old women on slippery roads, just deadens everything. Rock crawl not only locks everything up, it also modulates the throttle. (1/2 throttle input is only 1/4 throttle for example, for more precise control. Noisy lights? Mine too, from new, don't care. It's a cooling fan running inside the headlight. Bought my 21 in Jan of 22, so far I've ripped the stupid inner fender out, tore off the felt "cover" underneath 4 times now and since it's tore bad, I used an aluminum sign as a solid backing to screw the felt to, then installed it all at once. Broke the windshield (it's an "intelligent" windshield) so that was $250 deductible ($3400 quote on windshield!!!) Got 245/70/17's on it and the lift kit gets installed on the 14th!!

you need to also put it in sand mode to completely disable traction control, wont work in sport mode.

The Broncos with the side hinged tailgate has the hinges on the wrong side for the American Market as it forces one to have to walk around the tailgate when loading from curbside. I like alot about these trucks.

As an extreme, off-the-road driver, you shouldn't expect any vehicle to stay in perfect condition after using it for a while.

The skid plate arrived very quickly and was super easy to install. It is very nice! My only question/comment is about using the provided spacers (it is currently installed per directions). I’m guessing your testing showed it was best to keep this separation from the bumper cover, but since it does not triangulate up top - I am thinking about a flush or near-flush installation and possibly modifying the angle to avoid “shoveling” in steep approaches in mud, etc. Thoughts?

The metal skid plate coats money

After almost two years with mine, I can attest to the rear brake noise when backing up, and the fact I don’t have a steel skid plate. I need to get one installed and have it quoted, because the shelf in the trunk was a main reason I went with a base version over paying $10k more for a little decal and 18” rims. I feel like all I need for this baby are a 1.5-2” lift, my grille guard, and that steel skid plate and I’d be happy with what I have. Maybe upgrade to 18s or 21” rims depending on the space allowed by the lift.

I took a base 2 door Bronco for a test drive .....that's all it is too.

Seriously Ford ? My kia Forte has complete underbody protection where the fuel lines and everything is covered by panels for aerodynamics and sound insulation. They're not metal skid plates because well no one off roads a Forte. This is why I hate Ford. Cost cutting.

The breaks are definitely embarrassing and Ford will not do anything about it

How is the slow shifting transmission not on this list. You're in fourth gear by 25 miles an hour in a three cylinder SUV. I can't stand this car.

Materials quality is the perennial Ford problem. They know Ford fans will buy crap no matter what, so why improve?

Really? I thought the 90's cheap plastic American interiors was over.🤦‍♂️

Well, perhaps Broncos were good back when they first came out. But these new Broncos are in many ways not as good as the old ones. Shame they have the BRONCO name. Yes, BIG BEND over, so Ford will stick it to you at a very high price too. 😂

Debaing this vs a Honda CR-V
