So two days after all the drama at the dealership, I got an email from Ford today saying my Bronco is now Built. Coincidence? You make the call. Hopefully, this is legit and I will actually be getting it in a couple weeks. Current estimated delivery is April 15 - 21.
@Bcol2012, someone else recommended that on a different thread and I sent that user a message on Saturday. I hope this gets resolved soon but I'm not overly optimistic.
@Bmadda thank you for that theory. I know that dealerships get allocations of vehicles, but I was under the impression that applied to vehicles outside of those that people ordered. Is that not the case?
@Straightbase, I don't believe that to be the case here. First, they don't have the vehicle and second, they brought in the Ford rep who oversees all the dealerships in Houston. Since what you're describing goes against Ford's policy, I don't think they would engage their Ford rep if they were...
@yippeekiyay Thank you. I wasn't aware there was anyone from Ford monitoring this forum. @Ford Motor Company I am the one experiencing this issue described above. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. If you need any additional information, please let me know and I'm happy to provide it.
UPDATE... I met with the dealership yesterday and what I found out is crazy. I went to the dealership and told them I was told the vehicle was on a sales/ marketing hold initiated by the dealer, they denied it, said they aren't able to put a hold on vehicles. I could tell they didn't believe me...
@Bcol2012 Yes. It's crazy. I went to the dealership and told them I was told the vehicle was on a sales/ marketing hold initiated by the dealer, they denied it, said they aren't able to put a hold on vehicles. I could tell they didn't believe me so I had them call on speakerphone, and the...
@That1chic I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm in the 2/7 build group. I went through every user on that group and all but myself and one other person have received their vehicle. I found out today the reason is my vehicle has a sales/ marketing hold on it. No idea what that means; I was told it is...
Has anyone heard of their vehicle not being produced because it's under a Sales/ Marketing Hold? My Bronco is part of the 2/7/22 build group. After virtually everyone receiving their vehicle in that group and mine still showing as "In Production" and my dealer blowing me off when I contacted...
@Bcol2012 Thanks. It's Russell & Smith Ford. It's probably a good thing the right people weren't there today. Gives me time to calm down before meeting with them. Will be sure to post an update tomorrow. Stay tuned.
@Nick508 a couple things I just found out that you should know:
1. I chatted w/ Ford Support and they told me my vehicle was on a sales/ marketing hold by the dealer. I contacted the dealership and the people I need to speak with aren't there today so I don't have any more info about that...
@okbob where do you go to chat with a Ford CS? My tracker is still showing In Production and it seems I'm one of two people in this build group still sitting there.
@SubmarineNuke then I no longer feel a little better. Mine was in the 2/7/22 build group of which the majority of the people on this forum in that group have received theirs or they are being transported while mine is still sitting In Production. Very frustrating.
@Aaeros if it makes you feel better, you're further along than I am. It's starting to get very frustrating to see everyone in my build group getting their vehicles. I thought there was something holding up Wildtrak orders, but that doesn't seem to be the case since your is en route. Congrats...
