The rear tailgate latch malfunctioned. When the doors are locked using the key fob or auto door locks the tailgate pops open. When you get up to speeds over 11mph triggering the door auto-locks, the tailgate pops open and swings out.

I customer Ordered 2023 Bronco from Ford in 1/2023. It was delivered on [XXX]. I paid for vehicle in full. Upon getting in Bronco to drive home I noticed a Defective Steering Wheel with bumps all over it. They cut into my fingers. I notified Ford right then on [XXX]. I also noticed Defective knuckle punch on rear tail door of Bronco that holds Spare Tire, etc. I notified Ford. They have wasted a year lying to me by email and telephone messages telling me they are not responsible for these defects. I documented and photographed issues and had Crown Ford in Lynbrook, NY inspect vehicle and photograph issues and send them to Ford Headquarters in Michigan. Ford refuses to made repairs/corrections under a Manufacturer's Warrent or through the Lemon Law, etc. This was a brand New Factory Built and Delivered Ford Bronco. It was never on a showroom floor or test driven. It was ordered, paid, and picked up by me. I have offered to have work done and provide Ford the Receipts but they refuse to do anything to rectify the situation.

Since I took delivery of my 2023 Ford Bronco on August 1, 2023 I have not been able to connect to the FordPass (get updates, etc..). Dealer replaced the Gateway Module and has not been able to load software onto the module. The Gateway Module is a "hub" that routes signal to major components of the vehicle (safety, body control, telematics, power train, etc..). Since replacing the Gateway Module, Ford has been unable to get the software to load properly. This issue has manifested itself in not only the Bronco, but the F-150 and Bronco Sport as well. My vehicle has been in dealership for this fix for over 10 weeks. Given this is a critical component to vehicle safety and I have seen on Bronco and F150 forums over 50 cases of this I believe someone needs to question the ability of Ford to service such a critical component of vehicle safety.

Emergency brake failure. I have a very slight slope on my driveway. My car rolled halfway down my driveway. I assumed I did something wrong although I knew I had the car in gear with the E brake on. Two hours later I came back from an errand parked on my driveway was sitting in my car and my car started rolling backwards. The car was off in gear with the E brake on. I videotaped this happening every 20 seconds the car with balance, and roll back an inch or two. After 4 1/2 minutes, the car rolled the rest of the way down my driveway until it hit the street where it was flat. The car was in gear turned off with the E brake on, and nothing stopped the car from rolling. I tried putting it in an out of gear as this was happening and stomping on the break and nothing happened. I tried several times until it came to a complete stop. I have reported this to Ford. They took a complaint they don-??t know what to tell me to do. They don-??t have any recalls on my vehicle. This happened two times in the day. The second time was much worse. There were children riding bikes in the street behind my vehicle. I don-??t know if the safe to drive this vehicle and the dealer is not able to give me any information. Ford customer service is not able to give me any information. I have video of this. I am not able to upload it to this site. I can email it or any other way that you would prefer.
