SSM 515252023-04-06. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT. Some 2023 Bronco vehicles equipped with dual tops from the factory may exhibit a broken tension bow guide support (service base part numbers 7851532/7851533). This component is located on the soft top frame and was likely discovered when the soft top assembly was initially removed from its storage location in the rear of the vehicle by the customer. This may be due to improper storage of the soft top from the factory. To correct this condition, replace the affected tension bow guide support following the Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 501-18A Soft Top > Removal and Installation > Soft Top Tension Bow Guide Support.
SSM 514582023-04-05. Service bulletin. LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:ANTI-THEFT:IMMOBILIZER/PROXIMITY:KEY/SENDER; EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL. Some 2023 Bronco vehicles may experience inoperative remote start and/or remote lock and unlock through FordPass. Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) U0146:09 may be stored in the telematics control unit (TCU), and U2402:00 and/or U2402:92 may be stored in the gateway module (GWM). Inform the customer they can continue to drive the vehicle. A solution is planned for deployment via Ford Power-Up software updates delivered over-the-air (OTA) beginning April 2023. Software will update automatically on vehicles connected to FordPass. Monitor OASIS for additional updates. Schedule an appointment in April 2023 for customers that are not connected to FordPass once the repair is available.
SSM 514382023-04-05. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:RADIO/TAPE DECK/CD ETC.; EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:TV/RADIO/SPEAKERS. Due to a supplier chip-shortage, 2023 Bronco vehicles equipped with a 6-speaker sound system come with a non-operational rear amplifier. This non-operational amplifier (service part number N2DZ-18C804-B) will not produce sound (by design) from the rear subwoofer. The non-operational rear amplifier and subwoofer assembly will appear identical to a working system. Customers have been notified and compensated appropriately for this change to the vehicle. For more details, refer to the Electronic Field Communication titled Product Offering Changes: Ford Bronco Audio System published on 09-Dec-2022. Vehicles that meet these criteria should not be diagnosed for a symptom related to poor/no performance from the rear subwoofer.
SSM 513772023-03-04. Service bulletin. VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD; EQUIPMENT. 2021-2023 Bronco vehicles are equipped with a smart windshield wiper motor, which has the capability of sensing load of the wiper blades coming across the windshield glass. As a result of this operational characteristic/design, the operation may not be what is expected in certain conditions. The vehicle is programmed with protection features to prevent damage to the wiper motor in case of overheating, operation with dry windshields, or obstructions to the wiper blade (snow, ice, etc.). In such conditions, the wiper motor will temporarily reduce its speed and/or reduce area of cleaning until the condition is no longer present.
SSM 513762023-03-04. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT; STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR. Some 2021-2023 Bronco vehicles may exhibit a creak/pop type noise when any of the side doors are opened and closed. This may be due to incorrect door installation, alignment and/or incorrect tightening of the two bolts which hold the door to the vehicle body. To correct this condition, inspect for and address any damage to the door and/or latch components, then remove and reinstall the suspect door following the instructions located in the Digital Owners Manual, Removable Vehicle Components > Removable Doors > Removing and Installing the Doors. In this section you ll also find a detailed tutorial video of the process. If the noise persists, perform the Front/Rear Door Alignment procedure located in the Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 501-03 Body Closures.
