Tracker says it’s delivered but the dealer says it hasn’t arrived at the dealership yet. Is that normal?

Nope...
Usually the hiccups happen when it's built.

Who at the dealership said it wasn't there? And how big of a dealership? Yes, it makes a difference...

My small rural dealership has just enough staff to count on both hands, including the shop. They see EVERYTHING as it comes off the truck.

A larger dealership with disinterested staff may have zero clue about stock on hand for 48 hours...which means a sales weasel without YOUR interests at heart would like deny a blue sky was blue.

One step close for me.... Checked the order status this morning and my '26 2 Dr MT BL was updated with a Built date of 4/28. Expected delivery of 5/11 thru 5/17. Wahooo!

I placed an order on March 20, received order confirmation from Ford same day with 4 digit order number, saying I would hear from them within 45 days. Today is 45 days and I received an email from Ford saying:
"We’re working hard to fine-tune the scheduled build date for your Bronco Badlands® vehicle. Your patience is appreciated, and we’re committed to completing your Ford vehicle as soon as possible.
We’ll continue updating you, at least every 45 days, regarding the progress of your vehicle’s production status."


First, I was already feeling unfortunate that I hadn't received a build date when it seems many on here get their build date and VIN with days or couple weeks. Now they're saying "you'll hear from us again, at least every 45 days..." - seems kind of nuts.

Order is for a 4 door, 7MT Badlands. Dealer has confirmed order has been sitting in status of "clean unscheduled", meaning nothing wrong with it or holding it up. They also said they had allocations when I placed the order.

Appreciate any thoughts or insights as to why it's taking so long to schedule my build.

I ordered mine on Feb 25th. Ive texted and called every couple of weeks. I still do not have a VIN or build date. My father ordered a f150 Lariat a month after me, he got a vin and a build date for June 1st lol.

I would be willing to bet that your dealer doesn't have any allocations left. Ford tells them how many Broncos a dealer is allowed to have scheduled/built in a given period. Good Luck. I am finally picking mine up on Saturday. Built the week of 19 Jan and the recall was just done.

I just received my build schedule date and VIN number, 55 days after my order date, my build schedule shows week of July 6.

I placed an order on March 20, received order confirmation from Ford same day with 4 digit order number, saying I would hear from them within 45 days. Today is 45 days and I received an email from Ford saying:
