What owners of this build wrote

Unknown Or Other crash Jun 2025
While attempting to back up I was checking my backup camera and it showed that nothing was behind me, as I started to turn while backing up I felt a bump, there was a car right behind me, I couldn’t see it in my mirror and apparently the camera was frozen on my Bronco
Visibility/wiper Jan 2023
I was driving home today in the rain and noticed that regardless of the mode I had my wipers on, they slow down and go into a slow intermittent mode all on their own. After about 35 seconds the wipers start to slow down then after 50 seconds they stop causing a serious safety…
Visibility/wiper Jan 2023
Wipers will not stay on in “low” mode. They seem to revert back to a very slow/intermittent mode. Very dangerous in heavy rain or snow
