Thanks for replying. Long story short etrailer has nothing. In the last 10 days they have removed any hitch previously referenced to fit the 2025 BS. They were a little skeptical when I first contacted them but after 3 days of research with there Customer Service folks they updated there website plus gave me a 100% refund. Awesome company👍
Soooo....still got nothing. Ford Customer Service is researching this also. Someone at Bronco Nation claims the one they're selling fits but no confirmation, no name on the email, not even a part number. Needless to say I'm not buying it.
I'm still at square one. No Ford or aftermarket hitch. Plus try to find a Keyless Entry Pad for a 2025 BS Outer Banks. Not only did Ford decide not to keep it standard for 2025 they changed the frequency of the Keyless System so no current Ford or Aftermarket part fits.
Sounds trivial but this maybe my last BS OBx. Apparently I'm being forced to buy a Big Bend.
Oh yah. No hardcopy Owners Manual either. A $38k vehicle and no hardcopy Owners Manual.
Disgusting.

Ugh.. sorry about the dead end. Hooray for Etrailer. Keep everyone posted if you find any more information.

UPDATE REGARDING KEYLESS ENTRY PAD. Part #SK4Z-14A626-A is the official 2025 Ford Keyless Entry Pad for Bronco Sport. For 2025 the BS doesn't come with the factory installed exterior door pilar entry code pad that many of us were used too. Why... because the keyless entry system changed frequency to 435mhz.
So this new part #SK4Z-14A626-A is dealer programmed.
I used my 30000 points and got the part free otherwise expect to pay $125-160 plus dealer programing which I got slammed $95 for 6 minutes of the techs time. I see it's on the build site for $225.
So if you like to leave your keys in your BS while hiking, boating, whatever there you go. Confirmed Fit.

I'm specifically addressing a 2025 BRONCO Sport Outer Banks aftermarket Trailer Hitch. Not 2024 or 2023....... I'm inquiring about the newest 2025!!!
Anyone install a trailer hitch on there new 2025 Sport? What mfg & part # did you find to fit?
Please reply only regarding the 2025. Not later years. None of Etrailers hitches fit the 2025 Sport.
C'mon... somebody must have put a hitch on there new 2025 Sport Outer Banks 🤔

UPDATE.....Ford has a new part #SZ1Z-19D520-A trailer hitch for the 2025 BS. Unfortunately on backorder.
It's all the same as previous years but the drop from the hitch cross bar is shorter to accommodate the redesign bumper on the 25.
Drawtite 76436 will work but as you can see from the picture I found on another forum it isn't a nice factory installed look.
At least 2" too much drop.
I'm considering buying a $100 eBay 76436 and shortening the drop. Cut and reweld.
Should have no issues for bike rack or cargo cart.
Let's see $400-$500 backordered not even available OEM part or a $105 Chinese knockoff cut/ reweld with a factory installed look.🤔
