On 3/25/23, I was driving down a 40m and then completely shut down. The entire engph road. I had been stopped at a stoplight and as soon as I started to drive again, the car started moving forwardine, all power (dashboard lights, display screen, everything). I panicked and went to go turn the caution lights on--they wouldn't work. As people behind me started honking, I tried to roll down my window to motion them on---the window wouldn't roll down. I had no choice but to open my car door, and stick my hand out to start waving people on behind me. Knowing this was a dangerous situation to be stuck in the middle of the road with no way for cars behind me to know I was stalled, I called 911. They transferred me to the local police department and within 10 minutes, an officer got behind me and turned his lights on to notify other cars to slow down and go around. After about 45 minutes of waiting for a tow truck, the police were getting concerned because of the continued safety risk. So they had another officer jump my car. That got it into the parking lot of a CVS, where it immediately died again. When it's dead, it tries to revive itself and periodically, lights will come on and start flickering. You then go to try to turn it on and are unable to. The latter situation has happened to me twice in the past (where it will not turn on, lights flicker, etc). However, in both of those former situations, my car was parked (once at my apartment complex and once at church) so there was not as much of a safety concern.However, for it to completely dead stop in the middle lane of an extremely busy road on a Saturday at 4:30p was extremely concerning. What is more concerning is that this car is <2 years old and should NOT be doing this. The 2 other times Ford has looked at this, they run diagnostic tests and say "everything looks fine to us." As of right now, my car got towed to my Ford dealership and given today is a Sunday, I am awaiting their call on Monday.

Vehicle brought into dealership for Brake Recall. After this service, vehicle had loud metallic grinding sound when turning hard to the right under moderate acceleration. Vehicle was brought back to the dealership the next day, and the determination was there was damage to the Rear Differential due to a lubrication issue. The dealership added more fluid and a noise reducer fluid, and returned the vehicle a week later. Issue still persists, though not as loud as before. No warning lamps or messages appeared. Only symptom was grinding / surging of transmission when turning, and upon initial acceleration

When accelerating, there is a lag in shifting. The engine revs, but the vehicle doesn-??t move, like it-??s in neutral. This happens in normal mode, eco mode, and sport mode (the only modes tested so far). There is also a grinding noise sometimes when vehicle is lit in -??Drive-??. This is a safety problem, because it happened as my wife was turning onto a busy road, and the vehicle would not accelerate. Had to take foot off accelerator, then try acceding again a few times to finally get vehicle to start moving.

Vehicle got stuck in gear while traveling on highway. I would accelerate and the RPMs would shoot up but I was losing speed. I had to pull over, turn off the car and turn it back on. Some Ford dealerships told me they won-??t even look at the transmission while others have a two week lead time to just look at it. I have no other cars to drive yet may or may not be offered a loaner depending on the problem. This is a huge safety risk because I can-??t be going highway speeds and then lose speed and be going 25mph on a 55mph road! I am still waiting to get my car seen and there were no lights that showed on the dash.

While driving the new Bronco Sport big bend home, we both heard a rattling shuttering whirring noise coming from the drivers left side in the dash. We felt this was not a normal noise as we had never heard this on any other new cars we-??ve had. The whirring noise happens on accelerating. The rattling shuttering noise happens at low speeds at ~1500rpms. We took it to the dealer where we purchased it at 1036 mileage. They heard the noise and said it was not normal. They said they found the hood latch cable vibrating and it was fixed. It was not fixed at all. So we took it to another dealer at 1575 mileage. This dealership service department confirmed the engine rattling shuttering/whirring noises are not normal also, but They suspect it's something to do with the transmission. They did their testing and found abnormal air leakage around the -??F-?? clutch port internal to trans. They proceeded to replace the whole transmission. They test drive it and said it was fixed. Yes the whirring hissing noise was much less. But after driving it 100 miles, all these noises are back. Very frustrated and wondering if we will get stranded with a failed transmission somewhere!

while driving my shifter was accidentally tapped and went into neutral I went to a parking lot & at a slow speed I could put the car into reverse or park so if you are driving at 65 MPH it can be shifted and will be a safety issue I'm sure
