Ford Bronco Raptor Broke Down (Vacation Disaster)

Never had a problem with my Jeep Rubicons…they are amazing vehicles!

I disagree entirely. Sold my Wrangler for the Bronco Raptor. Zero regrets and zero issues. Did you follow break in procedure? Or did you start hammering on it right away? I’ve seen many other engines blow. Including a bunch of V8’s man. Not sure and not accusing but I every manufacture can produce a lemon. It’s sad when it happens but personally that Bronco Raptor is rather have over the 392 any day. The Wrangler is so uncomfortable barely any room inside and handles like shit and yes for rock crawling of course Jeep all the way. To each their own.

Hey bud, its been awhile since watching your videos. I just felt like your Ford having issues like that reminded me why I no longer own Fords. You gotta remember that most vehicles have an average of more than 20 thousand parts that have to work together to keep us smiling going down the road. And the price of vehicles today, makes us less patient with hiccups. Hang in there everything's going to be alright!

Jeep 392 hands down all day every day!

Alright… I called it. Remember the shite break in and early abuse? Welcome to the consequences. Time for my story: I started with a 392 Wrangler (second one on island here) and loved it until the engine exploded (at 3000 miles…) while idling up a small hill and blocking traffic to an entire military base… made Jeep buy that PoS back and bought a 2 door wildtrak bronco. Loved it but wanted more. Now I have my Braptor that I bought mid last year and love it. Don’t blame the manufacturer, brother. From what I’ve seen of your videos you are unusually hard on your toys. Take it to a shop to get a proper diagnostic instead of driving for hundreds of miles hoping it goes away. Good luck and I hope it’s covered under warranty or cheap to fix. I also hope it’s what you think it is and that I’m wrong.. but..

Please do more videos about the jeep I’m a fan✊🏾

The interior plastic on that Friday made machine on a nicotine and happy hour rush to the bar is telling. This is exactly what sent me back on the fence when I sat in one a couple weeks ago. The plastic just felt cheap and would have been fine in a $35k Bronco but, as I sat in that one, there was no way I could justify my $60k build.

Two things man. One, you will get a new job soon. I can tell you’re a cool guy and people like you just through my phone’s screen and Two; but absolutely ridiculous. How a 85k performance car can have those issues with your family in the car. That’s just darn right scary

Do you think your modifications caused the issue? Will it be covered up under warranty?

Likely a low voltage issue, a lot of manufacturers have been getting bad batteries from the factory and the low voltage sets tons of stuff off.

Hope it gets fixed soon

I feel your pain. Ford had to replace the engine in my 2023 Bronco Raptor at 2000 miles. Cracked head and block. Great videos, keep up the good content

I'm sorry to hear the news. However, every car / 4x4 has issues no matter what the brand is. Again, several factors also come into play. The way you break in the engine and so forth. Sometimes also electric sensor glitches occur, but that's the problem when we start introducing electrical parts and sensors, unlike the old days where things were so simple. For me, I moved from Jeep to a Ford Bronco not because I had any issues with Jeep, in-fact I have been a Jeep owner since 1996, but I just wanted something different and always liked the old school Bronco. When ford released the Bronco it ticked all the boxes I was looking for. Do I miss my 392? Yea, but I don't have any regrets moving and happy with my Bronco.

Oh no you quit your job 😲 ?? Hopefully you find a new one very soon man!! The car business has changed big time!! Pretty much everything in today’s economy is suffering. I sold my business back in October bc I saw this ression coming lol. Well good luck to you Zac. Pretty much all vehicles manufacturerd during and after covid are hit and miss on quality and workmanship. It’s sad!! Get rid of the bronco!!! Keep 392 !!! Lol.

why u need to use a jump start with a 392?

Take it to a dealer! You should not have a vehicle that expensive and have that kind of problem!! Good luck

Just buy a Jeep Wrangler. The "Godspeed" edition with 38" tires! Love that Jeep! 😀

24 F350 1k miles broke on me in the middle of the Nevada Desert, Ford WTF!

I am legit at a Fire dealership working out numbers for one as we speak. Having second thoughts…..
