The vehicle is a 2022 Ford Bronco two-door with a hardtop roof that was previously replaced under a recall due to a defected hardtop roof. After the replacement, I notice stress cracks and delamination around the rear side windows on both sides of the vehicle, including the top and bottom corners, with visible bubbling and separation of the roof material near those window edges. In addition, while driving, there is increased wind noise coming from the roof area, particularly around the T-top panels, which suggests they may not be sealing properly to the main roof. This appears to affect the integrity of the roof system and could be a safety concern if it worsens. I am not aware of a current recall number for this issue. The problem has not yet been confirmed by a dealer or service center. There were no warning messages before it was discovered. The component should be available for inspection if needed.

The tubes running along the roof line according to my service report could not handle the heavy rain and was the resulted in a heavy stream of water inside my vehicle while driving. The water "backfilled" into the cabin through dome light just behind the sunglasses holder. Incident occurred on October 1, 2026 while I was driving with my two children in the vehicle. The incident was witnessed by the construction manager over seeing the construction of our home. There was so much rain inside the vehicle that it soaked my pants, my seat, the carpet, ran down the navigation screen into the cup holders and warped my dash. I wash my vehicle 2 to 3 times a week and have never had an issue with the roof leaking until driving in this storm. When I arrived home I lifted the t-top on the drivers side and there was no water in the weather stripping. I did take my vehicle to the dealer and was told this is a "common issue" with Broncos, for the tubing to wear out and that it and the electrical would be replaced. The dealer did not inspect the tubes or the electrical components in the over head compartment. They reported that several trips through the car wash did not result in a leak and that the tubes "may have been too much water for drain tubes to keep up and it over flowed into the cab." I had limited visibility with a faucet style stream of water pouring into my lap a I drove. I am concerned the wet electrical components will cause a fire.

I have a new bronco with 3,000 miles on it and I used my heated steering wheel for the first time today and the cabin started filling up with smoke. The smoke was coming from the steering column. I’m not sure if something was on fire or just smoking but I didn’t see flames just a lot of smoke. I have a video. Where can I email it?
