Still no progress on my end, haven’t changed from “in production,” but my ETA changed from 2/1 to 2/5.

My ETA has always been 2/7. I doubt they hit that date, though.

For my Florida bound train mates we are still sitting in Georgia.

So I haven’t asked my dealer for a rail car number to try and avoid becoming an obsessive tracker so you are my new best friend lol. Estimated delivery is between 1/20 and 1/26 to Orlando, FL.

Monday update: My truck has moved from Chicago to Gibson, In. Progress.

It's great to see others are getting out of purgatory, some progress is being made.

Mine still shows in production on both trackers with an ETA of 1/31. Although my Sync version is now showing a version # where it had been (null) for the past few days, so that's something!

Good morning everyone. Just a quick update. I called ford CS and the kind woman told me that my bronco has been produced and looked like it was finished last Thursday going into Friday. Then obviously the checks and stuff. Anyways she said that it is currently awaiting shipment/transport. So maybe something good happens in the next day or so?

My trackers still have not updated either.. so I'm hoping on a ghost shipment

So...over on the 12/6 (MY21s) thread, there are a handful of WT & Outer Banks rigs that are in, "Pergatory"...no status after Build date. Also mentioned was a recall earlier in the year for an accident control module and 1 other issue i cant remember now. Wonder if that may be whats happening to those of us at the, Pergatory Party?

Cat...2Dr WT, Lux. @Panmort ...you are OBX, right?

I'm an OBX in purgatory too

I’m in North Florida, and it’s crazy that your delivery date is earlier than mine.

Welp idk how to register on united using the link provided lol.. idk if im missing something or what hahaha

It's supposed to prompt you to create an account after you search for the VIN, but I've tried on multiple devices and haven't gotten the prompt.

On mobile it should have an extra box/option that’s not available on the normal computer browser that says make an account or sign up. The system and process is a little wonky.

I ordered them and already put them on

I was going to order the door sill plates, but they weren’t available as an option to add on in the build system for 22 so I told my dealer just to wait (vs worrying about finding it via parts and ordering it)… I just bought the clear/Rock Guard Stickerfab PPF stickers for it. Much cheaper. Doesnt look as fancy but covers a bit mor of the door sill especially rear doors (where my kids will be climbing all over getting in and out), lol.

Hey, what is a roll bar sticker? is that the PPF to prevent the rubbing?

Yes it is to prevent the top from scratching the roll bars

I ordered these too and have them waiting to go on! I know they had a TSB put out where they “fixed” the rubbing Spots by putting some soft touch material, like little felt things or something but IMO you cant have too much protection in a high rub area. I think this is a must for soft tops.

Cat...2Dr WT, Lux. @Panmort ...you are OBX, right?

Mine is a high package, selectable 4x4 OBX And mine moved out pretty quick. Built to shipped in <48 hours. Are all of you lux or mixed? Maybe 4A parts? Im not sure this is related unless these trims have something in common that is in short supply.

I think it’s still too early to say we have a batch stuck in QC. I do think there is still a good chance the trackers are just delayed, or it’s taking longer to ship from MAP.

Of those who received a “shipped” status, it seems estimated delivery seems to be the last week of January for most.

I bet a bunch of trackers update to shipped this week with a similar delivery time window. Yes, it’s just wishful thinking, but other than maybe the WT characteristic I don’t see any “common thread” to these builds

AFAIK they are not stuck in “QC”. My understanding is there are a few various items that become short supply (this changes probably daily) and the vehicles on the line that come to get those products installed, if they aren’t available basically get built without them and set aside to wait for said parts unless its a part that they can’t progress past and then this will cause line slow downs. They keep the line moving if they can, and those vehicles pulled get those parts installed whenever they get the opportunity to go install them. There are also times where the vehicles are built then a certain lot of products has to be rechecked because there could have been a vendor issue or just verification. This also doesnt happen right away as they have to designate manpower/time to go find them and check those parts. This could be considered a QC purgatory I suppose.

I know it sucks but at the end of the day they Want those vehicles going out perfect, and are definitely making sure each one thats leaves IS perfect.

I don’t work there so take what I say with a grain of salt but this is pretty standard production process as it is, and these are vehicles so have extra high standards to be met.

Dont worry your babies will come soon!

Let’s be real. I’m weighing heavily on the “estimated” part of that. If it makes it here before the end of the month I’ll be shocked.
