Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The 2022 Ford Bronco Sport relies on two distinct filtration systems: the engine air filter that guards the turbocharged 1.5L inline engine and the cabin air filter that protects passenger comfort and HVAC components. The engine filter prevents abrasive particles from reaching the intake, preserving horsepower, torque and turbocharger health; this keeps city and highway efficiency closer to the factory 25/28 MPG ratings and helps avoid premature component wear. The cabin filter improves interior air quality by trapping pollen, dust and road contaminants—crucial for Arizona drivers who frequently encounter dust and allergens. Both filters are inexpensive to replace relative to the cost of downstream repairs, and both benefit from the Ford factory maintenance approach we provide at Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa. Our technicians follow Ford service procedures, install OEM parts, and document service history to protect your vehicle’s performance and warranty. To keep both systems working optimally, schedule service online and check current service specials to save on combined inspections and replacements.
