Popular enough that they stopped producing the vehicle shortly after that incident and didn’t revive the name for 25 years.

But he also saved a bunch of people and a cat from the glass tower fire in san fransisco...
So overall he saved more people than he killed.

They also started making the Expedition which probably had more to do with the Bronco's demise than the Escape.After the OJ/Bronco incedent they discontinued the Bronco and started producing the Escape.
