They did. They just thought they weren’t crappy enough to need replacement. They were wrong.

They must have already definitively fixed the problem since the reason for the poor communication was that they wanted to make sure whatever they said was 100% accurate. …right?

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.

I love the language used. It doesn’t affect functionality. Apparently keeping water out of the cockpit isn’t part of the roof’s function?

That’s awesome! Might have to reconsider if things have turned around for LR

If it makes you feel any better that defender would catastrophically break down before Ford could even deliver your Bronco hahaha

That is quite the take he has there, I’ve gotta say

Is it not AMB with some purple in it?

I’m sorry, this you?

Ford could. It’s why they offered the liner months ago - they knew there were problems. Also that’s LITERALLY THEIR WHOLE JOB. Design a product that works in the use case they designed it for. What on earth do you mean no one could predict problems? And again, COVID has hit the entire industry...

There’s a LOT of mass market appeal to a hardtop. Just like the significant majority sold will be 4 doors, I’d be willing to bet a significant majority would be hard tops if they weren’t bad. As in all things automotive, the mass market floats the enthusiasts, and the mass market prefers a hard...

Jeep produced and sold 69,000 Wranglers in the last 3 months. I’d have handled it like they did if I was Ford. They also will sell you a soft top on 2 and 4 door models. You’re making excuses for Ford completely bungling this launch, as they have nearly every launch they’ve made in the last few...

It’s premierdrum. The man is a living receipt

Yeah it’s great that they’ve found a solution (if they have). Just isn’t good for long term success of the vehicle. This will help kill some hype.

As we’ve said before, just skip the MIC and go straight to MOD. It’s a bust. Design just doesn’t work. Don’t waste time with the MIC again just cut bait and get to the MOD

And again Ford has already squandered all the positive review headlines and the negative articles about their roofs will dominate the news cycle. This is not good.

They should’ve done this like a year ago. But better late than never.

Yeah I kinda feel like maybe they need to go the way of the Webasto. PR has been maybe the worst handled part of this whole thing

They may have been intended well but Ford should have known their dealer network would never ever let it fly

The reservations were 100% for shareholders and were more or less a mirage because Ford doesn’t have a direct sales model. That’s it.
