🛠 4/11/22 Build Week Group

[frankk]

Just got the exact same update from Emily at Ford via telephone. She is showing a convoy delay on her end which pushed the ETA from 5/15 to 5/21, but she said that this happened a few weeks ago, and didn't take as long to remedy as the estimate. She said it seems like the estimates are getting pushed out to allow a buffer, but that deliveries are occurring faster than that.

My EDD changed last night and I was curious if it's more than a shipping delay so I called this morning.

I had a very similar conversation. Rep said my secondary status shows the delay but ETA disposition is clean. The rep said this is probably due to convoy but could be due to a quality issue. They tried to provide reassurance that the Bronco is built and ready to ship. They said they've seen this before and it usually gets resolved within weeks.

I said I wasn’t going to ask chat about my Bronco but I broke down today after seeing peoples dates change. This is the clearest explanation I have ever gotten:

Carissa: I appreciate you waiting! It looks like your vehicle is within the Production status. I am seeing it should be outside of the Production status on May 12th. Please keep in mind once it is out of the Production status, it will go into the Awaiting shipment status.

That's pretty much what I was told yesterday except she said they expect it to move between May 7 and May 13. Then off to the awaiting shipment ordeal.

Just checked the back door link and our estimated delivery date for 05/06 changed to 05/15 - 05/21!

Mine changed to 5/8 -5/14. Considering it was due today and it’s not here, that’s no surprise.

My window sticker updated 5/1 and again today (5/3). I'll be optimistic and act like it's a positive.

My window sticker updated again today. So recent sticker updates: 5/1, 5/3, 5/4.

Shipping estimate pushed to 5/21. Hoping they went that far out to actually resolve the convoy delays. lol yeah….. ok

Shipping went from 4/23-4/30 to 4/30-5/5 to now 5/10-5/16.

It's comical at this point. Truly comical. I'll be shocked to see it before July....

Mine has changed from 5/3 to 5/4 in less than 12 hours...3 times now in the last 4 days

Maybe workers at MAP keep scanning the window sticker, putting it in neutral and push it farther back in line at the plant.....

Mine too good news?

For the "My dealer said" crowd, I have not been getting regular updates from my dealer. So I sent them a polite email asking when I could expect an update because I used Ford chat and was told I was on plant hold with a ETA of 5-13 and was told my dealer would have more info. Received a response back from my sales person that they see the same thing and the chat is an "AI" so they really don't know anything and I should go by what the dealer says.

That AI has done a better job of keeping me informed then they have! Oh yeah, guess I have to drink now.

I contacted my dealer 3 times. Reservation $$, order placement, and most recently to have them get me some estimates on what a lease would run. My salesperson seems bothered by me each time i contacted her. I hope delivery goes smoother than everything thus far. 3 times in a year and you can't spare 10 minutes for a $65,000 truck? I can only guess that working at a dealership with no cars to sell is not easy to deal with. Most dealer lots here in MI are empty.

Just got my assembly line photo. So that’s good news!

Just got my assembly line photo. So that’s good news!

I just got my photo too, but it was supposedly assembled on the 12th and shipped the 19th and no one can tell me where it is. I guess this is to keep me happy til it gets here.

What was your "in production" date? 4/19/22 too?

What was your "in production" date? 4/19/22 too?

my blend date was 4/13, got the built email on 4/20 and shipped was the next day. It showed up at the dealer on monday without so much as a hint that it was close...

Danggit! Lucky you. My blend was 4/14, but my tracker updated to 4/19 production two weeks ago. Modules on 4/21 and no peep since
