📣 Ford announces MIC hardtop solution (program 21B49): unscheduled orders will get MY2022, delivered & built Broncos will have tops replaced

[vrtical]

Thank you!! That's what I thought. Will I get email notification/updates or are we expected to read through these threads to keep updated?

BG6 gets info before most dealers realize and there are a bunch of them on here. This is always a good place to keep an eye on things although overtime there should be less headaches.

Does this mean that all us that pre-orderd the 2021, and will not get one, will be able to select one of the new 2022 paint colors??

So will the public at large. We are enthusiasts so we know about Webasto but the average consumer has no idea. They will just blame Ford. Why Ford seems to be the only one that doesn’t know that is beyond me.

PREMiERdrum stated that the design itself is the issue, since there are issues even when everything is built to spec. The design and tooling is Ford's. Webasto just does the manufacturing.

As much flak as Webasto got, some of it deserved, it really does seem like it was mainly a Ford problem all along.

Small point considering the above news but still a mild concern: What if the color of our Bronco for us that ordered 2021 such as Cactus Gray, is not offered in 2022. Will we have to change?

No one knows what will or won't be available for 2022.

But.....if the colour you wanted isn't available then it isn't available. Simple as that. You'll have to change.

This is already happening with the SuperDuty. People are getting straight off the line MY2022's while others are still waiting on their orders for MY2021's built months ago.

Im suddenly happy I don't have a deposit and purchase order agreement on my Bronco lol

I have a 2 door base with a VIN and a production date that bounced from Aug 23 to Aug 30 to Sept 27.. Any guesses what this means for me?

It looks like I'm in the 3rd category and might actually get mine this year.

Awe….. I like you. You got jokes.

I'm in a similar boat. Got a VIN, had a July build week, then an Aug build week, now they say Oct 4th. Does that mean MY21 for me? Will I get my MY21 in 2022?

So because I have a VIN and have been In Order Processing for months, does that mean I CAN'T have green?

We’re starting to actively communicate how we are going to make this right for each of you, but we hear you. In the meantime, please check out our latest FAQs here: https://ford.to/broncosupport

Thank you @Ford Motor Company for taking a more active role in communicating!

I'm very curious why they haven't started to allow Wildtrak orders to change to soft tops. They've been producing them as demos at dealers, so it would only make sense at this point.

I bet that fact gets lost in the noise.

Ew. No.

I’d take 362 hp, 501 tq like the ranger rumors.

These are bitchin'......now we need one that says,

"Just fine with my 99"

My rig (4dr FE) was supposed to be built today. Now, with today’s news, I gather it will get the revised top “someday” and I likely won’t see this MY21 until a few days before MY22 begins. First world problems, I know and a lot of early res non-FEs have no idea when they will get theirs.

Just honestly to the point where I don’t care enough any more to even be pissed. Maybe time to jump off the forum and see what I’ve been missing all this time while I’ve been obsessing over this vehicle.

Shame. Looks like Ford put together a great machine (aside from the crappy MIC).
