Got my "built" email this morning, I was one of the most tenured Dirt Mountain residents. 7/12 blend date. Hopefully I'll see it by the end of the month!
Now 11 pre-Aug left.

Throwing the BS card down on that one. Every time there's an accident, they need to be replaced.
go have an accident In first gen car and get back to me, it happens all the time..

Not to mention general supply chain issues...not saying it's right just it happens.

The issue though is that claiming no parts doesn’t fly when they’re able to keep producing new units off the line while those built months ago sit and wait for the recall to get fixed. Simple solution is pull 553 airbags from the line and ship them out overnight to the dealers with the affected Broncos that are just sitting there. Now, if they weren’t able to build any units because there was an airbag supplier/commodity issue then fine, but that isn’t the case. Someone in a group I’m with at my same dealer received their built email today for an 11/11 build, with ETA for delivery by end of month or first week of December. They will likely get their Bronco before I get mine, despite that fact that not only has mine been built months ago and shipped to DM, but once paroled from DM then became an airbag recall victim and has been sitting for nearly a month at the dealer. That 11/11 units shouldn’t have been built if airbag supply is the issue. The ones that Ford screwed up on should have been corrected, then they could get back to running new builds down the line.

No one would need to be belligerent if they communicated anything at all, beyond “hang in there” and shipping out Bas flags and hammocks, as if those somehow alleviate them from doing things right to begin with and making them right ASAP as opposed to leaving those folks hanging out to dry.
The entitlement is strong in this thread!

I was an 8/5 build date and finally got my email that my Bronco was completed and shipped. On Tuesday morning I received my production line pic.
Yay!! this is so exciting, you're so close to receiving your Bronco. :)

Fascinating comment. Are you being sarcastic? If not, please. When you've ordered a 50-60k vehicle, which has been produced....and then Ford refuses to communicate anything about it to you or your dealer....for MONTHS!....we're way past entitlement. We're not asking for the world, just some words of what's going on would mean a lot.

Half sarcastic. I’ve been waiting just as long, vin since April 20 still not even built. I don’t go around bashing the shit out of a guy and then expect him to be my friend and have all the answers afterwards. Reap what you sow.

@Ford Motor Company glad to see there is still Ford visibility in this thread!

Can you check VIN 1FMDE5CPXMLA72364? 7/13 blend. Feel free to PM is needed, thanks in advance.

There’s no entitlement here, and no one is bashing anyone without cause. Ford clearly has an issue here though, and they are going out of their way to avoid giving even the most basic of info. And as for the entitlement statement, I’ve never understood how people can be apologists for Ford’s handling of all this. I’m what world does it somehow become acceptable to run a business in this fashion? If you owned a business and did work for someone or provided a product to them, and it was faulty and needed repair I would imagine that you’d get it handled or your business wouldn’t be around long. No one would expect you to stop doing other jobs for customers, but if you are telling customers that the reason you can’t fix the faulty product because there’s no part available but then turn around and do another job for a different customer with that same product that supposedly isn’t available for a repair, then that’s just bad business and again, and to blatantly do it in the clear light of day for the customer awaiting repairs to see, then your business shouldn’t be allowed to continue to thrive. If the product doesn’t exist and therefore the issue cannot be repairs then fine, that’s fair and understandable, but we know that the airbags exist and are readily available.
