Has anyone tried using this on the 1.5L Bronco sport yet or know if it will work?

I didn't know they had a issue with the oil drain plugs? I have a oil change coming up soon and will check with them on this.

Okay thank you. The thing is that ford is going through a cost cutting faze so a good bit of their vehicle line ups (including the bronco sport) have a plastic oil pan with a plastic drain plug. Problem is plastic does not like heat expanding and shrinking like steel and will eventually crack . Here is what the oem plug looks like. It’s literally a quarter turn before the oil pressure behind it pops it it out. 1746274159562.jpeg
