They need to stop with these ridiculous models and start perfecting the ones they already have! Being the leader in recalls is not a trophy I'd want to have. 🤦‍♂️

They just recalled 4.4 MILLION vehicles for a software glitch.

If it's software, why can't they resolve it with OTA updates?

Then again, I'm reminded of Sync OTA updates and it becomes clear why.

It affects 6G Rangers so we're okay for now. I'm considering adding a Redarc trailer brake controller and now I'm going to be cautious in case some issue crops up with our trucks. Brake controllers aren't common enough to expose issues on the 5G?

True for the majority of Bronco owners also.
And many truck owner also. Let's face it most don't off road with their and still get the 4x4 and add all the extras to it. Not that there's anything wrong with that because everyone should customize their trucks to what they like. I was all set to buy a Raptor but after my accident and getting my Tremor I see no need for spending all that extra money now. Sure it'd be nice but I'll (and most won't) ever get the full use of out one. But hey, we still need those mall crawlers because those curbs are getting higher every year. lol

I guess they didn’t learn from the failed Lincoln pickup truck fiasco.

Have Ford (and soon to be Lincoln) Broncos simply become the next luxury pavement princesses, with a "rugged" aesthetic? The new G-Wagon, Range Rover, Escalade, Jeeps, and H2/H3 Hummers of yesteryear?
