I'm absolutely done with, fix or repair daily! 4 yrs of dealers telling me my sh_t isn't working due to aux accessories. My sh_t is tested by me for load and I have 0. So the last straw is today after my bronco sitting on a tender for 3 wks is f__king dead. Like completely dead. i was notified by the stupid app I'm in conservation mode. LOL! so ford get your sh_t together cuz windows/doors that won't shut due to a batt failure is complete bullsh_t while it's raining/snowing. also i need to get to the cargo area for jumper cables, but i havr to climb though the vehicle when dark and no cargo lights to guide the way to the back. maybe I'll f—king wear jumper cables as a seatbelt so i always have access. hey Dearborn get ready for a ghost ride though hq. i have a bronco for sale with a front shaft, axles and diff with harness for sale in addition to the vehicle. many upgrades are included too. serious inquiries only.

you ford

My bronco lives in a Metal shop/garage that is about 100 feet from where I store my key fobs. The bronco is in a faraday cage so I wonder if that helps. We have switched to diving the Bronco only on weekends and sometimes it is weeks between drives on a three year old battery and seems fine fires right up every time.
I don’t worry about someone steeling Darryl from the house.
They would have to get past the geese, the donkey, the llamas, the Great Pyrenees and Great Danes, go through two gates and cross two electric fences to get here.

I have bridge over the river that most people, despite my best efforts, are scared to cross. 😂

Ya know, I understand your frustration with Ford. Been there my self with my Bronco. But please grow up. The language does not make you tough, it makes you sound like a moron. I'm so tired of people and nothing but cuss words. GROW UP!!

Though, I did like the part about wearing the F-king jumper cables like a seatbelt. Good imaging... LOL

Hmmmmm - no replies from @fresh coast…

Do we think he really drove his rig through Ford HQ?

- 2023 Raptor / Shadow Black / MGV (DOB 8/30/23)
- 2023 Heritage Limited Edition / Robin’s Egg Blue / 4dr / (stolen from my dealer 11/15/23)

Nah, he would have posted pictures first. More likely, he did his big talk and left.

I get being frustrated but there are better ways to resolve the problem he had. With the title of his post no one in this forum from Ford will give him any love. I mean why after insulting them like he did. He deserves an AMC Jeep.

He made his problem. But hes not wrong about the dealers.
I wouldn't say he deserves an AMC Jeep,I'd love to have a Renegade.

Oh isn’t there a specific way to hook the ground up on accessories and battery tenders. You can’t hook up to the battery terminal post you have to either ground it to the chassis or connect it past the ct.

From my understanding, the vehicle detects it and with the modules activated, it can be a drain on a weak battery. @Stonekoldk (or anyone else; we were just talking about it recently) can correct me if I'm wrong!

I keep both my fobs in Faraday bags, so no pinging back and forth for me.

Was at least expecting the Ford bot to ask @French toast to private message it so it could assist as usual. 😉

I know when you charge or jump start, your supposed to hook up the ground clamp on the post beyond the BMS.

I understand you should not connect it to the negative post at all but rather to the chassis ground bolt.
