CALLING ALL GRANGTOBER ORDER PLACERS

[David T]

So i got the email from Finance to arrange for pickup of my bronco and they quoted me the price that I signed for back last fall, but i should have price protection of around 3000 and they didn't mention it. Is this the way it was for all you other Grangtober order holders? I have a certificate number and everything so i'm not sure what to think...

No, the certificate should be figured in to your final total. Email your certificate # back to your contact at Granger and bring it up on your call also.

For those who shipped from Granger to CA, did your Bronco arrive with temp plates? Mine just arrived with a paper plate that says Granger Motors. The docs I signed with Granger reference a "temporary tag." Is this piece of paper with "In Transit D7" on it? And is this all you need to legally drive the vehicle until you get temp or permanent plates? Do you need to display it in some way?

The CA DMV site does not make any of this clear. I would prefer not to get pulled over or vehicle impounded for a violation but I do need to drive it a bit to set the sensors before the smog test.

Just tape that “D7” paper in your back window, PLUS you must have your purchase paperwork with you in the vehicle. You will be 100 percent legal.

In about a week or 10 days, Granger will mail you the official title paperwork. Take to the DMV and get plates.

Helpful, thanks!

Is anyone else having trouble with their price protection private offer with Granger. They've given me a number, but it is different than what Ford has indicated would be the number based on one's order as of last September. And Granger is unwilling to discuss this with me.

Has anyone that picked up their Bronco week before last (week of 5/29) gotten their in transit title etc in the mail yet? I’m getting a little nervous, as I picked mine up on Friday 6/2 and my in-transit temporary tag expires this Saturday. When I called Granger to check status today I was told that it might take 30 days or more, but that I’d be ok driving it as long as I have the paperwork with me. Not sure that the local authorities would have the same interpretation of an expired temp tag. “Yes officer, I know it’s expired, but it’s really not….”

I picked mine up on 5/25 and got the title info on 6/9. Just over two weeks

Mine came out correct. I confirmed with Ford Marketing and forwarded that information to the finance team while I was waiting for them to contact me. I eSigned the purchase agreement today. Very satisfied with Granger Motors and excited to be picking up my Bronco next week!

I'm not as satisfied. When I pointed out the private offer was incorrect, they basically told me to pack sand.

"pack sand" or "you'll have to wait for the exception process"? It sounds like you may be in the same position as me: there are two certificate numbers, one with a lower amount for program 38644. For whatever reason, that's what shows up in SmartVincent, and there is too much going on for Granger folks to track down every case.

Most likely, you have the option of taking the current level at time of purchase, or waiting for the exception to go through.

Initially told to pack sand. Later in the day was able to speak to someone else who was willing to discuss it with me in more detail. Your point is well taken. But my initial contact with finance at Granger has me reconsidering whether I wish to do business with them.

I get it. It sounds like you probably talked to the same person as me. I had to push to apply the order modification rebate because it didn't show up at first. I get the impression that they've dealt with some aggressive and entitled people and have run out of patience.

It sucks for us, because we're dealing with our one and only Bronco and real money. While they are getting hammered with hundreds of vehicles and customers in a tight window. It's understandable that we don't have the same perspective, even if it's still frustrating.

I do know one thing, if you use the flow charts here on B6G, it will calculate your price protection off current MSRP. If you are, like most if us, someone who agreed upon a price back in September of 2022, your actual price protection certificate will seem very low because it is only the amount you qualify for at the time you agreed with Granger on your price.

Ford is the one who decides that amount. If Granger is not giving you the amount Ford says you are due, that is a problem, and younshould probably talk to Ford. But if Granger is giving you what Ford says you get, and you think that is incorrect, then you definitely have to talk to Ford on that one.

Granger isn't giving you the price protection, they are getting a reimbursement from Ford, so no dealer is going to give you more than what Ford says the rebate will reimbursement will be.

Best of luck. I hope it all gets squared away.
