FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
The manufacturer (Ford) has failed to remedy the fuel injector safety recall (22S73)in a timely manner. Ford has prioritized repairing it's unsold cars first rather than fixing the safety issue for customers who have already purchased vehicles. Despite receiving a notification in the mail stating that parts are now available, my local dealer has been unable to complete federally mandated repairs due to the parts being on backorder for an unknown time duration.

SERVICE BRAKES
I have a 2021 Bronco Sport Badlands with the 2.0. When taking the vehicle out after it has been sitting overnight or longer, as others have stated, the brakes are extremely sensitive and will groan/make a loud noise when even the slightest pressure is applied. I assumed until now that it has been condensation on the rotors, but seeing as the frequency it occurs has been everytime I get in the vehicle, I did some investigation and found out this is quite a common issue here. No brake performance issues have been noticed, just annoying noise. Adding my experience for documentation purposes.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Had the vehicle in for regular service and recall repair January 13, 2023. I was informed that the recall could not be completed due to there not being any available parts for the repair. It has now been four weeks and I haven't heard from the dealership about completing this repair. I am concerned about the lack of interest on the part of Ford Motor Company and its local dealer in completing these repairs. The statement about there not being any parts for the repair is not totally true. The company is using all available parts for production and their bottom line rather for the safety and well-being of their customers. There are at least ten (10) like vehicles on the dealership's lot at the present time that the parts could be taken from for repair of the vehicle and my safety and well-being.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The vehicle was acting weird and not providing power in the way that I would expect it when accelerating. If the vehicle cannot accelerate, I am at risk because I may be merging into traffic and a car could hit me. I tried calling the dealer but they don't have a solution to the problem yet. It is a safety recall but they don't have a way to fix it. There's also a lawsuit that I'm not related to but about this same issue. So I'm concerned this is going to take a long time to be solved. The screen inside the car malfunctioned and turned off but I'm not 100% sure if that's related. Below is the recall that I am referring to Manufacturer Recall Number22S73 NHTSA Recall Number22V859 I'm just hoping to be able to drive a safe car and I'm concerned that this is a danger to me and my passengers and I'm not sure what I can do about it because even the dealership doesn't have a solution.
