Defect Description:
SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I purchased this vehicle to flat tow behind my motorhome. Ford states that the full size Broncos are flat tow capable, but unfortunately the braking system times out due to the electronic brake boost being on a timer. I have installed a supplemental braking unit to activate the brakes on the Bronco when being towed behind my motorhome. The braking system inoperative after the 45 minutes that the electronic brake booster times out. This is a huge safety concern due to the weight of the Bronco not slowing down as intended while being flat towed. This needs to be addressed with Ford Motor Company. I do know that I am not the only person who has experienced this issue and more people will continue to have this issue until a fix is implemented.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Recreational Flat Towing 2022 Ford Bronco with 2.7L V6 engine. After connecting my Bronco to the motorhome and using Ford instructions for putting it in the tow mode the following will occur: About 45 mins after turning the ignition off and closing the doors the EBB (Electronic Brake Boost) in the Bronco shuts down leaving the Bronco without any brake boost. This will leave the supplemental brake system ineffective. When first connecting the Bronco to the motorhome the brake boost is active and the supplemental brake system is functioning properly. After the boost shuts down the supplemental brake system may not apply enough force to the Bronco brakes to assist in stopping and the distance required to stop the motorhome and connected Bronco is increased. Should an incident occur that causes the Brono to become disconnected from the motorhome while under tow the automatic braking function of the supplemental braking system may experience the same issue and fail to safely stop the Bronco.

Defect Description:
VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
Wipers would not stay working as they should on any setting during heavy snow, sleet, and rain. Vehicle has several intermittent settings, as well as (2) continuous wiping settings. The all settings would work as they should for around 60 seconds, then slow down to a very slow intermittent wipe. Each time a setting was changed it would work as it should for 60 seconds before slowing to a very slow intermittent wipe. This was all happening while moving, with heavy precipitation (rain/sleet/snow mix). The safety issue was having to mess with wiper settings to keep them functional, and lack of visibility when the wipers would slow down from where they were set to. No warning lamps of any sort came on.
