| Thinking of purchasing 2024 Bronco Heritage Edition. Has less than 10k miles with the 2.7 v6 ecoboost motor. I know there were reliability issues with earlier Bronco editions but hoping most if not all fixed for recent model editions. Any experiences with this vehicle? |
| I have no experience with them but I love them on the road |
| Some of the trims looks nice, the one with the retro white rims. It’s an enthusiastic car, questionable reliability, build, etc. tbh, I dislike any vehicle with a turbo engine. Exception is the Porsche 911 turbo and few turbo diesel motors. All others learning at consumers expense. |
You better buy your car now and hold on to it forever. Every car seems to be getting a turbo. |
| There is so way they were crap back in the day I wouldn't expect less now. |
| Bad idea op. Terrible idea actually. |

My 17 year old son has one. We’ve had it for two years without issues. I will say that I hate driving it because it feels too wide (for comparison my car is a g wagon and I don’t feel this way about that).
My 17 yo and husband don’t agree with me though. |
Turbo engines are commonplace now because of new fuel economy regulations that took effect roughly in 2020 or 2021. Sigh. |

There’s lots of annoyingly expensive things that can go wrong on a Bronco that have nothing to do with the POS EcoBoost engine.
My neighbor has one, and the electric fuel door cover thingy had to be replaced, that was $600. Why does Ford even put that on there when a $10 screw-on gas cap would suffice? Also, she had to replace a taillight that got broken. That was $1,000. If you’re looking for the “Jeep” experience, just get an actual Jeep. They’re wayyyyy cheaper to fix, and you can still get one without a turbo engine. |
| If there is no good reason for you get a car this big, please do not. |
Big? A Bronco isn’t big. It’s the same size as a Jeep. |
Broncos are small. We aren't talking about a Suburban. |
They’re wide. |
No, they’re not. They just look wide. A Hyundai Palisade, Toyota Highlander, Honda Odyssey and a Chevy Corvette are ALL wider than a Bronco. |
Those are all examples of huge oversized vehicles. Why do you need an off road vehicle? |
