I'm going to paint or powder coat mine, not sure which one yet. Lots of folks have done both...here's one thread: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/anyone-with-sasquatch-package-painted-their-beauty-rings.26661/
May 9th date most likely correlates to what's on the window sticker regarding blend date. So even though mine went into production on 5/5, but was not "built" (according to the tracker) until 6/30, the VIN is tied to the date on the window sticker/blend date/"in production" date...so your blend...
I would call any contact #s you can find at Ford and raise some hell. It makes zero sense that you can't take your fixed Bronco home...it has the clips, but the VIN is still flagged because of the blanket date range given in the recall.
There was an earlier post in this thread talking about...
The recall notice to the dealers states "Do not demonstrate or deliver". I interpret demonstrate to mean test drives, but who knows. Link to docs can be found here: https://www.nhtsa.gov/vehicle/2023/FORD/BRONCO/SUV/4WD#recalls

We had planned on ordering one later this year or next, but I'm tired of throwing money at repairs for my wife's Expedition, so the timeline moved up. Since we wanted one sooner rather than later, I started looking around...
I've been in production purgatory since 5/5. After weeks of no new information beyond "it's showing as "in production"" from the dealer and Ford chat, I got a text from the dealer this morning that the Bronco has been "released to the shipping company". Ford vehicle order tracking site is...
