🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

[Jazer]

Who all has or will sign up for Sirius XM? I have enjoyed it for the last few days, but once I went and looked at the monthly subscription prices I passed. I might be in mine a total of 30 minutes a day during the week. I just can't see spending $20.00 a month on it. If I could split it between a few cars then maybe yes.

Oh you just wait...let it expire, and they will stalk you everyday. Then name your price, how about 5 bucks a month?

You don’t. I’ve had it for years and never paid that except when I forget. And even then theyll apply that to your new deal when you get it. Call to cancel it when your free subscription runs out. They’ll transfer you to the cancellation and offer you offers to stay. Don’t accept the first one. I currently pay less than $7 a month I’m pretty sure you can even do this while process in the app now.

Worst case scenario you cancel it, go without a few weeks and they’ll send you all sorts of specials to come back.

Ew to Sirius. They are so scammy feeling. lol. Yes to cancel and get better rates. I still find it better to not even deal with them. I feel much better with Pandora or other music services like spotify & amazon music. Sirius still calls me occasionally and sends me shit in the mail. JUST LEAVE ME ALONE! lol.

26.5 hours bronco-less.

Got my update from the service department. They’ve been tracing electrical components and wiring all morning and have been unable to locate the issue. The engineering plans they have don’t match what they’re getting from the computer so they now have to open a ticket with Ford’s tech support…..

They've set up a rental with enterprise for me and offered a ride up there.

That’s my whole update for now.

Ugh. At least you have a rental coming and won't be car-less but that's such a way to rain on your parade. Hopefully they will figure it out soon.

My bronco has finally been delivered to the dealer! Just working through the paperwork now. They are offering an extended warranty through CNA National. It will likely be an 8 year, 100k miles. I'll post pricing when I get a quote from them. I am definitely tempted to go with an extended warranty assuming it isn't an absurd amount of money. I figure it may pay for itself if something with the electronics or a sub-system goes out.

Does anyone here have experience with the CNA warranty?

My understanding is not to do anything BUT Ford ESP. Don't let them sell you aftermarket warranty. You are better off looking into (Flood Ford is one that has great rates) for an actual FORD extended service plan. Dealers make money of the aftermarket warranties and they are usually nowhere near as good/beneficial to the customer as an actual manufacturer warranty.

Oh did your estimated delivery change? I’m still in purgatory with the same 10 Jan date

I don’t understand why some Broncos are built and shipped in like a day and ours are taking weeks.

Yeah, it changed from 21 Jan to 31 Jan! Hopefully, it's a true estimation.. I haven't received anything saying that it has shipped.

I was very honest but not rude. For me this (561 day) experience has been terrible. The two bright spots have been this amazing forum/you guys and gals and in the end, we will have a Bronco.

A good honest review is appreciated. The good, bad and the ugly.
I agree that this group of folks here have made this a much more positive experience.

Although I feel like the one who flew over the Cuckoo's nest.

With Apple Music or Spotify I can't see using XM. The available music on those two beats anything on satellite IMO.

Yeah I don't subscribe to XM. Don't have a need nor do I want to deal with them.

Excellent advise on all points above.

I think the whole group flew over the cuckoos nest.

Ya.. we have several vehicles that have had XM and they are horrible to work with and force renewals and call you relentlessly and offer you cheap prices only to renew at much higher prices next year. The quality of audio is horrible, the content is nothing better than we can locally anyway.
I listen to what I want when i want with Apple Music and Audible.
What is your go to playlist?

I was hoping they would say oh easy fix here you go, enjoy your baby. Not the update I am sure you wanted.

Another day... no updates again.

Stuck on built since 1/12/22.

Pending in Palsapp.
Ford.com estimated delivery 1/24 to 1/30
Pizza Tracker 1/30

I am doubting it will deliver on Sunday, but I would take that at this point.

Today’s update……NO update! Reached out to the dealer(he escalated the VIN?) and reached out to the Ford rep
To see if they can locate Bertie and see what the hold-up is regarding shipping. Trackers remain “in production” since 1/7 with estimated delivery of 1/22….I keep saying I WILL not track, I will not track, I will not track!!! However-I know that is a lie

I'm all over the place with music, that's why I love spotify. I'm 40 so being an eighties baby, I grew up with 70s and 80s. The only things I don't care much for are new country (love some country gold) or new rap. They are about as fake as grass in Scottsdale.

.... guys....

It worked fine for me. I can’t speak to the back door tracker but the pizza one worked. And mine hasn’t moved

@stevensantee would you mind going into the spreadsheet and adding you place in line and rotation number (from your window sticker). Also...are you still, "In Production, or did your tracker update to Build and you have a ship date?

I am trying to ensure the Purgatory data is clean.

Link to spreadsheet on Page 1, post 1.

Thanks, Steven!

.... guys....

oh my. we are a chatty bunch.. ok I know I am chatty but not 8k level.

 

[Roger123]

Wow, Ford is pretty ballsy sending this out! We're waiting for delivery from the rail yard to our dealer. I don't want to click the survey until we actually complete the purchase.
