Problem overview

Some Ford Bronco Sport owners report experiencing persistent rear brake noise even after service, including instances where rear brake shoes and pad assemblies have been replaced and rear rotors machined. This noise has been described as sounding like a moaning seal or a shipyard horn when reversing. Despite attempts to resolve the issue through service bulletins and part replacements, some owners find that the noise continues, suggesting a potential ongoing problem with the braking system. Additionally, there are reports of loud noises during acceleration, with rear brakes sounding like a car horn in reverse and front brakes producing an air horn-like sound accompanied by vibrations in the steering wheel when moving forward. It is advisable for those experiencing these issues to consult with a Ford dealership or qualified mechanic for effective resolution.
