Filed Nov 30, 2024 · Transmission · OR

Manual transmission produces rotational grinding noises when ambient temperatures drop below 50F. Vehicle located in Florida, so any visit to Ford dealer to provide warranty service cannot find a problem. Any complaints on difficult shifting are ignored. This problem if left alone will result in catastrophic failure while driving and may lead to accident.

I have the same complaint that many 2021-2023 Ford Bronco owners have had in regards to the 'scraping/grinding' noise in 1st and 2nd gear. I have seen this on dozens of forums and Ford acknowledged it is an issue. I was told to bring the car in when I was ready for an oil change. This is after being a second day reservation holder and waiting 2.5 years for my car to be built. The dealership told me that the transmission was bad and I needed a new transmission. It will take 10-15 weeks to get a new transmission, and in the meantime all that was offered was a less than ideal rental car (ford edge) and to wait patiently. This is a known issue that the transmissions were faulty, Ford has not been responsive in terms of getting any help/assistance otherwise, and I am not sure if this will even fix the problem. There are hundreds of other owners who have this same issue, and Ford has done nothing.

When starting engine cold if ambient temperatures are below 50F, scraping and grinding sound comes from manual transmission while in neutral, 1st or 2nd gear while clutch is engaged. After warming up noise is going away.

The transmission has a grinding or scraping noise when clutch is not engaged. No warning lamps or messages. It has been below 50 degrees, but even after the day warms, the noise is still there. I have not taken it to the dealer yet as there are many reports from other people with the same issue and all have been told it is "normal" when it gets cold. This does not make sense. I have had manual transmissions in the past and have never heard this type of noise when it was cold.

Rear differential seal failure causing gear oil to leak out. Transmission failure of 5th gear to 6th gear synchro. The failure of the seal could have lead to on road failure of vehicle, luckily the vehicle was parked when leaking started. Transmission issue causes grinding of synchro leading to possible failure. The dealer has fixed both issues for now. No warning for either failure.

I have a 2022 Ford Bronco with a manual transmission. My Bronco was recently in the shop from 12.22.22-01.23.24 for service on the transmission due to the grinding noise I was hearing. Dealer notes- "Cause 7107 222371A 2021-2022 Bronco Manual Transmission: Replace the 5th and 6th Gear Synchronizer Rings, Includes Time To Remove And Install The Transmission". It's now 2.25.23 and I have an appointment with the dealer again due to a grinding noise & shifting issues.

Vehicle deemed by dealer as "unsafe to drive"... I sent you complaint about a month or more back with no response....the 2021, 2022, 2023s all are being received brand new with noise starting shortly after....several hundred of us brand new 7 speed manual transmission Bronco owners are experiencing this..... Dealers are telling us drive them.... Mine got to the point the gears began locking up, grinding and the engine randomly high reving which could all of cause me to get into an accident. A recall needs made on these. Someone is going to get hurt trying to make a turn in traffic and Lossing power to get nailed by oncoming traffic. Mine now sits with the dealer and parts are back ordered till March... TSB 22-2371 which ford released for this has been unsuccessful on every documented repair. Noise returns. New transmission noise also returns. Do something and get these vehicles recalled so ford address the true safety concern that's being ignored. Mine is a great example of what's going to happen to everyone's

I am part of a large number of individuals ~200+ documented experiencing scraping noises in our 7 speed manual transmissions. Most of us can't get service done due to part supply issues and labor shortages. The bigger concern is FORD is replacing same parts that are being damaged which doesn't address the root cause of the issue and its not solving problem because it comes back shortly after service. The noise is mostly only heard in temps below 50*f per FORD TSB 22-2371. People are complaining that regardless of new transmissions and TSB service the noise still comes back while most of us are waiting months to even get the repairs performed. There has been no official resolutions. The noise is a safety concern in that if the transmission fails a bronco filled with a family could be stuck in a dangerous situation unable to move the vehicle in gear on the highway or similar situation along with these are brand new people complaining day 1 they bring these 7 speed manual transmission models home on 21s, 22's and now 23's. FORD just keeps sending them to customers with same defective transmissions we have and the problem is growing quickly also since it is winter and more are out there the number is growing quicker. I have tons of videos, documentation and a community of 200 plus individuals who own 7MT Broncos with the issue. I have spreadsheets from the community of builds and user names as well as photos of internal damage and reports of noise coming back. Very good documentation. please take this seriously.
