2023 Ford Bronco Sport Brakes Problems

TSB 23-2308 Moan Noise In The Rear Brakes when vehicle Is Driven In Reverse (R) In Cold Weather And/Or High Humidity (From Ford). Vehicle also has a grinding noise when driving and turning. Brake rotor and pads. Two dealerships have confirmed the issue and has been "fixed" twice even though the noise is still there after it was "fixed". The dealership turned the brake rotors and replaced brake pads even when they did not need it, and updated parts that includes clips. There are no warnings that appear before, during or after. This is a known issue with Ford on their Bronco Sport models. They are making the consumer pay for the fix even though it is a defect through Ford. I know numerous people who are/have experienced this. It has been ongoing since 3/2024

Got a flat on the right front tire. I pulled over on level concrete area. The vehicle was off, in park, and parking brake "appeared" to be on. Using the the vehicle's jack, I jacked the vehicle up and had taken the flat off. The vehicle rolled back and off the jack and the disk break crashed to the concrete. I checked the parking break and made sure the vehicle was in park and it was. I jacked it up again. As I was starting to replace the spare, the vehicle rolled back again and could have pinned my hand between the fender and the spare tire. A passerby stopped the a floor jack and a chulk and we changed the tire. First, the base of the jack is too narrow and the vehicle was not stable. This was an ideal location to change a tire and still was a disaster.

Break locked during turn and ABS system failed, as a result, cash crashed into a rock. This could have been very serious had the car been going faster. The car ABS system needs to be recalled on ALL BRONCO SPORTS. The car will go to the dealer for review. There were no warning lamps or other symptoms prior to the crash

The car in front of the car ahead of me slammed on their breaks so I slammed on mine. The car directly in front of me hit their breaks last but my car never stopped until it hit the car. I was pushing on the break as hard as I possibly could and it just felt like the car wouldn’t stop
