Why do I keep losing my SiriusXM®* signal in my Ford Bronco?

Due to the placement of the antenna on full-size Broncos, you may experience interference with your SiriusXM satellite signal if your installed retractable roof is only partially pulled back. However, when your roof is fully retracted, it should not cause interference.

The factory-installed retractable roof in the partially opened position may cause interference with the SiriusXM satellite antenna. See the image below.

The factory-installed roof system when fully retracted should not cause interference with the SiriusXM satellite antenna. See image below.

Since any obstructions to the satellite antenna, including roof-mounted accessories, can affect signal strength, here are some options if your SiriusXM signal has decreased:

  • Listen to SiriusXM 360L as it is internet-based, not satellite-based.
  • Stream music using Android Auto™** and Apple CarPlay®† from your SiriusXM app.
