So, not long after getting the Bronco I switched the settings from "all unlock w/ push" to only drivers door unlocks. Now, there are times when I press it a second time and the other doors unlock. All's good. But there are times when I push it a second time and the other windows drop, as they should, but the doors don't unlock. Am I not pressing the button hard enough? Not close enough to the bronco? You gotta press it 3 times? What's going on........? lol

the child safety lock in the “ON” position? but that wouldn't explain the intermittent actuation

Did you click your heels together? No window should go down unless holding the unlock button down. Guessing it’s a signal issue from fob to vehicle, like interference from something else, distance or didn’t click the heels. Lol
Switch back, do everything again, and then switch again and do that. Possible a weak battery, might have to reset the system..not sure what else you can do without taking it to the shop, but sure they’ll do the same thing first.

It's a '24 so the windows automatically crack when you unlock it.

Ford DID make a fix for that I'm sorry, that's not helpful but this is all that came to mind.

So, I’ve tried to pay attention and currently, one press unlocks driver door. Second press drops all other windows but doesn’t unlock doors, 3rd press unlocks the other doors. Not sure if that’s how it’s supposed to work but… that’s what it’s doing.

Mine doing the same. I'm currently running tube doors up front only and stock doors in rear though if that matters.

this morning the back door unlocked on the second press. So... I think it's just doing what it wants. I'll mention it when I go for my first service.

I guess the smart thing to do would be try the other key fob and see if it's a fob issue, or a bronco issue.
