Once the vehicle hit around 3000 miles it started making a loud clicking noise while the vehicle was running parked or driving . The noise continued to get louder. When I called New Brighton Ford where i purchased the vehicle brand new on 4/25/23 at the end of June I was told to make a service appt. The soonest they could see the vehicle was 4 weeks later. Because of the continued noise I called on about July 12 2023 they agreed they would look at it upon looking at the vehicle. It was found that the engine was in engine failure. They kept the vehicle for six weeks and had to replace to the engine.

ENGINE
2022 Ford Bronco loss power while driving moderate speed (35 - 55 MPH) and would not immediately restart after the first attempt. After finally restarting it would continue to stall. The car was towed to the dealership where after four weeks of investigating they found the catalytic converter to be melted. The car has now been sitting at the dealership for 7 weeks with an "indefinite lead time" on replacement parts. My Bronco only has 14,000 miles on it and no determination on what caused the catalytic converter to melt.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
While wipers are in full-time mode, they will occasionally switch to intermittent mode even though rain continues to accumulate on the windshield. This forces me to take my left hand off the steering wheel to 'reset' the wiper system while driving with limited windshield visibility. Taking my hand off the wheel during a downpour is unsafe and should be the last thing I need to be concerned about. My vehicle is available for inspection. Dealership replicated the fault on similar Broncos and said it was 'normal operations'. They claim that the wipers go into intermittent mode so the wipers motor doesn't overheat. However, there is plenty of rain on the windshield when I've experienced the transition to intermittent mode. No warning lamps, messages lit up during this failure. I have a video available that documents this issue.

STRUCTURE:BODY
My 2022 Ford Bronco 2 door hard top has wind (air leak) noise where the T-top joins the hard top. The weatherstripping does not properly seal causing wind noise, possible water intrusion (potential mold issue). This wind noise has been brought to the attention of the dealer and Ford's regional field engineer. The wind noise can cause hearing problems but not hearing emergency vehicles, and potential heating loss. The voids in the weather stripping can allow water to enter interior causing a mold issue. The factory has replaced the hard top once, but the issue still persist. This is a common problem with hard top Broncos.
