Production Stuck Check-In - Mod top issue?

[KizerSoze71]

I don't know about everyone else, but mine didn't end up being the MOD top. My Bronco was waiting on fender flares. They apparently had a parts shortage. Hopefully that was the same for everyone else and all of them get installed and updated soon.

Interesting, how did you find out it was fenders flares vs the MOD top? Marketing and my dealer has only ever been able to tell me it was a QA hold.

God is good that's how...lol...someone had a buddy that worked at Ford and had a level of access others didn't have. I didn't even ask them to do it, but they were gracious enough to dig into the details. I suspect it is the same issue with at least some of the HE's and Everglades because both have the squared fenders.

I have an update- dealer finally tracked mine down and says it is built but waiting on a recall, but they don't know what the recall is. I assume the recall is the MIC top window problem, but not sure.
My vin doesn't show up on the recall tracker, but maybe that is because it never left MAP. 1-17 blend.

Makes sense. At the beginning of the month my dealer told me same thing although he couldn't confirm that mine was a part of the inspection/recall campaign. He indicated his regional rep told him they are trying to be done before end of March.

I think I'm probably in that boat my blend date was 1/4.

Here is the latest list. I highlighted those that are still stuck and have squared fender flares. I can't know for sure if that is the only reason they haven't shipped, but I do know for certain that was why mine was held.

A vehicle is only included in a recall campaign if it has left the OEMs control… ie: it has been shipped to a dealer and/or sold to a customer, so it is cataloged and reported to NHTSA, EPA, CARB, or whatever governing body has jurisdiction over the root cause of the issue (emissions vs safety etc) and is literally being “recalled” back so that work can be done to remediate the issue.

Production-completed vehicles which are affected by an OEM-identified recall that have not yet been released by the manufacturer would not be included in a recall campaign, but still may need the work done…

If our Broncos are built and are in fact waiting for repair work to be done, it feels to me like best-case scenario that they are still at the factory because it means Ford is performing the work to remediate the issue directly.

wow , I was reading this thread trying to learn some things and put my build date and vin in the tracking like I did before, and I no longer could get through on the site and I checked my email sent from the dealer on 2-28 and ford sent a email a week later with the vin and build date of 4-8 , I know it was quick but hey I'll take it . and now,,,,,,,,,its gone , literally they reached into my old emails and changed it the build date and vin to ....FORDPASS!!!! I didn't even think that was possible to even do. It's my email from a few weeks ago and now it's changed. (I MUST BE DRUNK) The dealers number is still there but no vin or build date. The wife says that's possible with outlook but not many other email clients. I'm Literally amazed. didn't know that was a thing. I feel abused LOL Has anyone ever heard of this?

Not exactly sure what you mean, but FORD can't change an email once it's delivered to your inbox. They could however change or remove the build date associated with your order and VIN. I'd suggest you contact your dealer. Hopefully they can help. This thread is specifically for people already produced but stuck in production status.

I would have thought Impossible but it happened. I saved the email and took a pic of the vin but now the email literlly says FORD pass where the vin and build date was. I swear. ,LOL The wife who's in printing for franchises says she does it all the time to change orders in emails she priviously sent. I was in awe! and I apologize for sticking this thread, in the wrong place,

Another week of no update since 1/18 "In Production"
Wondering if paying the premium price for an HE manual is worth it, if this is any indication of modern Ford.

Sorry for the frustration dump

Ditto here, I know it was probably already started somewhere in the thread, but are all the HE stuck all manuals?

Mine is.

Mine is not Manual, but I’m stuck alongside everyone else since January.

No it looks like a mixed bag.
