I have a 2022 Big Bend and having problems with the ambient lighting. I have to go to setting and turn it back on a lot! Is anyone having the same problem?

Weird, mine stays on.

Forget where it is in the menu's, but you can leave it on to work

Personally, just get aftermarket lighting, better than the icy blue Ford uses by default

Glad you posted this and I found it (it took a minute). A year on from when you posted this, and I will say that I am CONSTANTLY having this problem. The lights will just go off at some point, and after a little while I'll notice 'man, it's dark in here...' and I'll go check the ambient lighting option and they will be turned ALL the way down. I'm not sure if the updates are triggering this, or something else, but it's annoying to have to constantly turn them back up!

So frustrating!

Hi there Mike. This ambient lightning concern doesn’t sound like something we want you to experience with your Bronco. Could you please send us a PM with your VIN and the name and location of your Ford dealer? To send a private message, just click/hover on our username and select "Message". I'd be happy to look into how I can assist you on my end.

Yep, I've been having the same issue since day 1. Just like others, the ambient lighting setting is automatically turned all the way down...for no reason at all. I continually have to turn it all the way back up. Not a major issue, but something that should be fixed easily by an update.

Pretty sure it is mid and above the Everglades has it. I liked it at first but I like it dark when I am driving at night, we live out where there are no street lights, so with tinted windows any light on in the vehicle just turns the windows into mirrors.

I like the footwell lighting. It helps me see where I'm planting my foot when I hoist myself up into my Bronco. 🙂
Chris here. I drive a 2-door Velocity Blue 2023 Ford Bronco Badlands with Sasquatch, Lux, a 2.7L V6, and an automatic transmission. It’s fun.

Because of our advanced ages we aren’t allowed to drive at night!🤣

Mine is the same, set it on, now it's off. Reminds me of the wonderful auto start/stop. Maybe we have to make an over ride to fix it! 😏

I checked today. It doesn't get turned off, the brightness gets set back to the lowest level.
