Doesn’t the Bronco have a plastic oil pan now? I heard say my new Maverick 2023 will come with a plastic oil pan but I can order an aluminum pan and replace it.
Sorry the driver was in the wrong. If you watched the driver when he destroyed the truck it would be clear how it was used beyond it's ability. Damm city boy's driving like clowns.
As a Chrysler technician, it only records event data with a code. You are very correct that when a Wrangler comes in we usually can tell which is abuse.
Its tough for dealers right now tech wise. Alot of techs are basically getting sniped from local smaller dealers as they are offered big sign on bonuses to leave their dealerships. I know a few dealers that have this issue. Trans techs are rare and get sniped often.
makes me very skeptical to off road my bronco ! No bronco off road parts "failure " history, means arguments with Ford/ Dealership. (that you might not win!) No parts inventory as well!

Here in the States the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act which deals with after market parts and requiring Manufactures to prove that the after market part caused the failure off the covered component.
Excellent points, Johnny and Dave. As you, I too would want this to shed more light. Have either of you seen, either before or after this story came to light, other stories about what it took to cause transfer case failures? Or, could either of you please share stories about purchasers who successfully won out by having dealers' decisions to deny warranty coverage get reversed or overruled by Ford after a dispute over any types of repairs?
Defective heat treatment of the gears by the sub-contractor can also be a cause of this failure.
Toyota!
So his dealer that he purchased from had to send him to a different dealer. Should he also refer back to his purchasing dealer to try and get a little help fighting this? Or would that be a waist of time.
Is the Maverick intend for off road use? Some of the stock videos show it spinning in a gravel pit!
Always buy from dealer who has a lot of mechanics in there shop. If the cars in the parking are many they have a real service dept

Very interesting, I had to do some defending of my own on my Maverick Hybrid, and warranty.
