Ford isn’t used to the reservation model and never had to report these problems to customers, only dealers which they could supply with other vehicles or the next ones off the line (if allocation was a concern). Because all these are so specifically spec’d and going to a single person they have...

So do I but it feels in line with the karma I put into the universe this year. I told myself I didn’t deserve my bronco unless I finished a certification I need for a promotion. Well I passed part 1 but don’t expect to pass part 2 until about July….ugh…if it’s the case it’ll be a well...

From the 4/11 build week. Basically it’s a LED headlamp issue and quality issue with wind noise. Sounds to me like they will be on hold until July.

They’re telling us 5/13 as well. Being in manufacturing I’m fairly confident that it’s a fictitious date the planners are using and means nothing. It’ll continue to be pushed out two or four weeks at a time until the constraint is relieved. But we could be lucky and it be a true date. Just...

Coming from the 4/18 group, you’re wrong. All of the group has been on hold except for about 5 orders that shipped. We found most if not all affected have the high or Lux package which aligned with all your 4/15 blends that don’t have built emails either. 696 orders on hold on order track.

It does look like the high and Lux packages have not been shipping. Great find, now curious what the component is - maybe the larger display? Or the parking sensors…hmmm

I don’t see you in the Google tracker - did you add your info?

That is what we call a placeholder date. It’s fictitious and all the orders that are on hold are put on the same date. It is not ‘what good looks like’ in production and I hate it when suppliers do it to me. We are now all at the whim of Ford’s standard practices to get replacements/repairs...

If you placed it before 3/7/22 you were supposed to get price protection for MY22.5 which was the second increase (supposedly). I don’t think most dealers are going to do it and they get a rebate from Ford no matter what which is like double dipping.

I have a HPR Focus and love it. I ordered an EG bronco because green is my favorite color. I think the bronco would look great in both colors but honestly think HPR will stand the test of time better. I see all these older green trucks and think they look like terrible colors. It’s my one...

did they also honor price protection for MY22 or just Z-plan? I’m in the same situation. I believe Z-plan is about $2,500 off my build and the price protection is $2,000. Would be nice to get both but don’t want to over ask of my dealer.

No update on my trackers but the window sticker updated to 4/30 on the very bottom. Previously was 4/22 which should’ve been my built complete date so fingers crossed this is an indication of when they plan to get it sorted out.

yeah I have a freight ID as well (going convoy not rail). I explained in another comment the app creator states the “on hold” status he gets from the shipping company. My experience with this means the company paid/registered for shipping but hasn’t picked up the package yet. Ford chat says it...

Yes - I’m referencing the trackers we have access to though. I believe you only get the plant hold status from the dealer or Ford chat. This is what I have: The primary tracker that Ford gives you isn’t working for me right now but it did show “In Production” earlier when it did load. My...

Yeah if you check the 4/11 build week group, the majority of those with 4/15 blend dates don’t have built emails. Sounds like there’s an increasing delay at MAP.

Start of transit might be correct but a week by rail and then convoy to dealer doesn’t (based on what others have experienced). The order track app states the average time vehicles have been in the “on-hold” status mine shows is 12.5 days. I asked the guy that made the app where the hold status...

What does that look like on the tracker you’re using?

That’s great to know! If that’s the case, that most likely comes from the order for a ’convoy’ being placed with the shipping company but the product not being in their hands yet. This happens with FedEx and UPS when a company prints the labels at their facility but the truck hasn’t come to...

From what I’ve seen, if you’re going to use this for off-reading, the Lux can be a bit of a pain. There’s a bunch of sensors to turn off or the vehicle keeps chiming at you. Personally I didn’t think it was worth it and went with High. The only thing worth the money is the adaptive cruise...

Sorry if you’ve answered this question already, but can you explain how you get the “On Hold” status? Is it an automatic thing if your order sits in a specific status for too long? I don’t see any of the trackers saying my order is on hold. I asked Ford chat and they said they didn’t see a...
