🛠 1/17/2022 Build week group

[710-oil-614]

Mine is exactly in the status you just described built 3-27 awaiting shipment ever since. So I think this is a not ordinary situation. It shouldn’t take 2 months to ship from Michigan to Northeast Ohio

I see both of yours stuck there still and I just wonder how my luck of the draw went and it slipped out to Columbus, OH>

Everytime I start it I feel like it's just going to spotaneously combust because theres no other reason it should have made it out given Ford's handling of the process.

new fear unlocked…
was thinking about whether i wanna buy seat covers or not to keep my original seats nice & clean & then thought… “what if a bird sh*ts in my bronco when i have the top off?!”
is this a valid fear to have?!

i definitely feel like i need the seat covers now?!?!

I have an Edge with the big sunroof and I have had this happen in my garage and in my yard with the sun roof open. You really want to be careful if you live near water with herons etc. this would be horrid.

I finally did it and notified my dealer I'm canceling my 2 dr 2.7L Eruption Green Basequatch. He checked and my EDD had moved to 7/30 and to process the deposit refund, he asked that I send him email with the reason for my cancelation so that they could show Ford it wasn't a ghost order that would ding their future allocations. That email was cathartic. So now I'm out with my deposit back and a hammock, flag, and 2022 calendar. Bye all, best of luck to you on your Broncos.

Much respect- can I ask what vehicle you’re going with?

I was thinking about heading up to the cabin this week. But I'm currently topless. Sap and needles. My Superdooty gets sap droppings all the time on it. I'd hate for the seats to get sap on them.

But I got the windows tinted today and it looks hawt!

My dealer said they tint the front windows for everyone and put door guards on them also. Way over priced for those two services but at least it will save me from having to get appt to tint them.

Anyone else get this today? Use to be Able for rep to reach out to you when available. I now have to click chat live button again and again to see if I can get a rep. Of course no rep available

I got that over and over the other day…. Waited an hour or so and tired again. Was finally able to get through. Keep trying!

Built email received this morning and “awaiting shipment” in ordertrack.app! Estimated delivery 6.17 - 6.24 to west Texas.

4dr Wildtrak, high pkg, tow, soft top with original blend date of 1.18 and reservation date of 7.16.2020.

Now to see how I’m affected by the shipping fiasco, but finally seeing some light at the end of the tunnel.

It will all be worth the wait in the end! Thank you for being apart of the Ford family.

@Ford Motor Company with all do but waining respect, you’re not building goodwill by commenting on posts when people receive build notices/ take delivery of their Broncos. You are effectively giving the middle finger to the rest of us waiting and that you won’t communicate with. It’s totally tone deaf. I understand a choice to not respond to negative social media feedback (it’s a lose/ lose situation) but then don’t act like all things are grand. You might want to discuss this with your marketing decision makers.

I have SO many opinions about these responses. While am extremely happy for those of us that have received and are enjoying their Broncos, (Congratulations, ya’ll!!!!) it really makes me angry that the ONLY time we hear from Ford is times like this…. How about a heads up when it’s going to take MORE than ‘a few days’ in production, or when you’re changing our EDD’s to 90 days out, or taking away our EDD’s, or when you change our EDD’s to some crazy random date? Why are WE the ones that have to ‘call our dealer’???? Where are you then, Ford?!?
****deep breaths****
rant over.

Yooooo tell Jimmy and Mikey to stop producing broncos out the line. Give those damn chips to the hundreds or thousands of broncos stuck on chip hold for months . Especially January broncos. Get your shit together. Install the modules needed and send our broncos. Screw May builds , screw June builds , screw July builds. Focus on the broncos out in that so called temperature control warehouse and install those damn modules. Jesus Christ. Get your shit together

so my wife calls me this morning and says the tracker is now showing “final preparation”. I hadn’t checked the tracker yet so my heart started racing. We were both so excited. The other day my dealer said my eta is 5/21 and I couldn’t believe it’s finally here. I immediately went to check for myself only to see “in production”. When she got home a few minutes ago she showed me her phone and my heart broke. The bubbles are all there but only “in production” is actually checked. She doesn’t ever look at the tracker so she didn’t know what she was looking at. When I think about how much I’ve allowed this Bronco situation to affect my mental well being it makes me even more upset with myself. I may have no choice but to move on for the sake of my mental well being.

Not giving up on my bronco because I really, really want it but I couldn’t waste a good summer with nothing. I considered buying a different bronco, but the mark-up is crazy right now. So instead, I found a killer deal on a Jeep and I am enjoying it to the fullest. I’m assuming the market will hold so I won’t be screwed when the time comes for me to get my Bronco, but if it does I might end up sticking with the Jeep.

@Ford Motor Company how do you guys lurk this thread enough to chime in like that and not make a single statement regarding any of our legitimate concerns?

Well my Trucker friend sent me photos of my girl in the parking lot in Michigan. Then another photo of it on the back of his truck. She's coming home!
And for the record, I'm still showing "in production" on all Bronco sites. Still waiting on my dealer to text me that my VIN showed up on their paperwork to receive it this evening or tomorrow morning. When he does, I'm sending him the picture from this morning and saying, "I already knew it was coming." Jerks. Actually already got financing done on it!
