Which Bronco Sport has a black roof?

The Bronco Sport does not designate a single “black roof” model; a black-painted roof is available through Ford’s factory two-tone roof option on many Bronco Sport configurations.

In practice, a black roof is not tied to one specific trim. Instead, it’s achieved by selecting the two-tone roof package when building or purchasing a Bronco Sport, with availability varying by model year, exterior color, and regional specs. If you want a Black roof, you’ll need to confirm that the two-tone roof option is included for your chosen combination.

Understanding the two-tone roof option

To determine whether a two-tone roof with a black roof is available for your Bronco Sport, consider these steps.

• Use Ford’s official Build & Price tool for your model year to see if the Black Painted Roof option is available with your chosen trim and exterior color.


• Check the exterior color combinations listed for the two-tone roof option; the roof color will indicate Black when selected.


• Confirm with the dealer that the exact trim and body color configuration includes the Black Painted Roof, since some color-pack combos require specific trims or equipment.


• Be aware that availability can vary by region, dealership, and model year; not all configurations include the option.

In short, a black roof on the Bronco Sport is a configurable feature rather than a fixed trim designation.

Shopping tips for confirming a black roof

When shopping, keep these practical checks in mind to ensure you get the look you want.

• Inspect photos or brochures showing the two-tone roof with a black roof; verify in person if possible during a showroom visit.


• When ordering, request a build sheet or VIN-level verification that explicitly lists the Two-Tone Roof option as included.


• If buying used, check the window sticker or service/CarFax documentation for the roof option; look for “Two-Tone Roof” or “Black Painted Roof” in the option list.


• Remember that body color can influence eligibility for the two-tone roof; some body colors work with a black roof while others do not.

With these checks, you can confidently identify whether a Bronco Sport you’re considering includes a black roof.

Summary

The key takeaway is that a black roof on the Bronco Sport comes from Ford’s factory two-tone roof option, not a single trim name. Availability depends on the model year, exterior color, and regional offerings, so always verify via Ford’s Build & Price tool or your dealer to confirm that the black-painted roof is included for the configuration you want.

What is the difference between the Bronco Sport Outer Banks and Badlands?

The main difference is that the Badlands trim is designed for off-road performance with features like a more powerful engine, enhanced suspension, and seven G.O.A.T. modes, while the Outer Banks is a more luxury-oriented trim focused on daily driving comfort and fuel efficiency, featuring a smaller engine and different styling elements. The Badlands is ideal for serious off-roading, while the Outer Banks is better suited for on-road comfort and light off-roading.

What is the lawsuit against the Ford Bronco Sport?

Ford is facing several lawsuits related to its Bronco Sport vehicles, including a class-action lawsuit over a faulty 12-volt battery recall that allegedly did not fix the problem, and another lawsuit investigation related to a fuel injector defect that poses a fire risk. The 12-volt battery recall affected about 273,000 Bronco Sport and Maverick models, while the fuel injector issue affects certain Bronco Sport and Escape models with 1.5-liter engines.
 
12-volt battery class-action lawsuit 

• What it's about: A class-action lawsuit alleges that Ford's fix for the 12-volt battery recall is insufficient and that the batteries continue to fail. 
• Vehicle models: 2021–2023 Bronco Sport and 2022–2023 Maverick models equipped with a specific 12-volt battery. 
• Legal claims: The suit claims Ford's recall is inadequate and has led to issues like the vehicle failing to restart or stalling. It also alleges the recall cost owners time and money for repairs and has devalued the vehicles. 
• Recall details: Ford recalled certain models over a 12-volt battery defect that could cause a loss of drive power or a failure to restart. The fix involved software updates. 

Fuel injector lawsuit investigation

• What it's about: An investigation has been launched into a separate fuel injector defect that could lead to fuel leaks and a risk of engine fires.
• Vehicle models: Certain Bronco Sport and Escape models with 1.5-liter engines.
• Legal claims: The lawsuit is looking into Ford's handling of the defect, which has resulted in multiple recalls. Some vehicles that received previous "fixes" have reportedly still experienced engine fires.
• Recall details: The recall is for a defect where fuel can leak into the engine compartment. Ford's interim fix involves a software update, but a permanent solution is still being developed. 

Other legal issues

• Lemon Law: Individuals with persistent issues may be able to pursue a "lemon law" claim, as shown in a case where a Bronco owner received a vehicle buyback for ongoing problems. 
• Other recalls: While not directly tied to a lawsuit yet, it's worth noting other safety recalls, such as one for a loose bolt in some 2021-2023 Broncos (SUV, not Sport) that could increase injury risk in an accident, according to Austin American-Statesman.
