If they don't utilize next week's down time to address the roof issue we're all experiencing, then I'll be extremely disappointed. Whatever Webasto production they have that week better support us.
Crossing my fingers for a 8/2 week shipment notification.
It will be August before we see ours ship. I don't expect any feedback until after the next shutdown. Praying they allocate more resources to clearing the back log then.
Bet they're trying to reduce cycle times at Webasto to support throughput, and these last few weeks of tops are the result of it. So many variables that they clearly can't control.
I hope they're strategically parking then as they come off the line. If they're still installing hard tops, that's 100s a day to then go back and comb through.
I reached out to my dealer and told them I'd swap to a soft top if they can find a way to install them post production.
Only feasible if the builds being pushed back are hard top and they can adjust the mix to being heavier on the soft top side. I hope that's the case, but it's a guessing game.
I'm hoping to have it by the 1st week of August. I've got another camping trip planned with my little kids for Silver...
Mine loaded. Guessing just an error on your end of some sort.
At this point it's a worthless tool. Most people don't have it sync'd with the email and especially for us who's builds are quarantined in a lot somewhere.
I don't think anyone mentioned halting production. They'll be done via on-site mod.
How many excess tops do you think they're getting each day from Webasto given their inability thus far to meet any sort of rate of climb? The answer is slim or none and slim is one foot out the door.
They'll...
There's a lot to be said about the current situation for sure. Especially given past launches and how high profile this Bronco launch is.
The fact that even in the internal tracker, you can't find further details. They're not in 'stop ship', nothing noted for requiring on site mods, etc.
I...
Truth. Part of me wishes my build didn't get pulled ahead before shutdown.
We as a group should start a pool for when we expect gate release and shipment. I'll go with 8/3.. at least for my 6/29 blend.
It's raining pretty good in dearborn today, so I'm hoping the chip is the issue
The 'back log' he mentioned previously has to be 100s of units based on blend dates, % MIC tops, and ratio of Broncos to Rangers. I'm 100% thinking we don't get any substantial movement until after the next...
Not sure if that's a thing, but it's likely a day drive straight down 75. It's not an oversized load either, so it shouldn't get held up at the bridge between Cincinnati and Kentucky.
I keep checking my VIN in vehicle visibility, but still no change. Wondering if it needs an on site mod due to...
Hopefully. I missed this past weekend for vacation. Praying this doesn't get pushed into August when I have the next trip planned with the kids. My 4 and 7 year old ask me every day why they haven't sent the bronco to the dealership. 🤣
