The Plan & Offer - Stephens Auto Center's Mid Atlantic Bronco Connection

[stuckinohio]

When I go to the tracker that Ford sent me when I got scheduled, it says that my order has only be confirmed and not scheduled. I also cannot see a window sticker.

When I check the backdoor tracker, it shows I'm scheduled for April 10.

Is this normal or is something amiss?

Also, how can I get my window sticker if not through this link?

I think the window sticker is not available until it's built or right around then.

I see. I thought we got them earlier. I guess the link threw me off as well.

Does anyone else who is scheduled still show as "confirmed" on the official Fore tracking link?

It will be wonky like this up until we get around a week or so from the build date. So, you may or may not see info in the link Ford provides until then. Mine is the same exact way.

Your window sticks pops on the night of your build, exactly one week in advance. The schedule date jumps around all of the time, just ignore it until you are a week away. Modules pop the night your Bronco is built. This is how it is working right now.

How do I know? My Bronco was just built on Monday and is getting ready to ship. My scheduled delivery window is March 7th-13th. After 963 days, this doesn't seem real.

The point here is that I believe Ford is actually getting better at the process. Last year's ship/build timeframes are no longer the norm. Anyone that has been scheduled should wait until you are two weeks away from your build week before worrying about your date (unless you get an email that your week has changed). The email tracker date shows the actual day for your build, and it jumps all around all of the time, even outside the week (I wouldn't pay much attention to these changes, until you are one week out). The backdoor link shows your build week.

Things are getting better!

If you are scheduled, take a deep breath. You have a VIN and that is all that matters. It will get built!

It is normal.

The backdoor reservation link only shows you the week. So, your build date should fall somewhere between April 10th and April 15th. When the email tracker updates with a date, it will show the actual day of your build (even though both say "week of"). So, if the email tracker date says April 10th, then you will be built on Monday. If the backdoor reservation says April 10th, that means it will be built between the 10th and 15th.

The email tracker seems to get a database update once a night. That is why the build date jumps around on it so much, it is estimating based on the current schedule of the plant. It settles within the week before your build week.

Also, the week of the production date, all of the Stephens shipping info went blank on the email tracker.

Ahh. Glad it's not just me then. Thank you!

Thank you for the info! I'm glad it's getting better. It'd be nice if Ford could/would break it down like this.

Updated to 3/16 from 3/17 earlier today. First time throughout this process that the In Production dot has been green. Hopefully no hiccups going forward.

Looks great! I notice the front windows are tinted. I have seen mention they offer this service but haven’t seen any details. Are there tinting options available? 35%, 20%, ceramic, etc.

I asked earlier this week about Tint and John said they stopped doing Tint as of 3/1

That’s strange. The email he sent on Monday to those recently scheduled, mentions them offering tint…

“If you're in need of window tint or accessories, now through March
would be a great time to contact our Parts department for scheduling
or ordering.”
