02/28/22 Build Week Thread

[hellahella]

Ok. I am in the exact same boat as you described above - 851/1783. I have no extra options, soft top, BL, 2.7. Only difference: the CS rep I chatted with said my vehicle is "In production with a secondary status of produced". I asked what that meant? is it waiting on part? She replied that it does not show that it is waiting for parts or chips. Gave me an ETA of 4/1. My dealer confirmed that date but talked as if that was the conservative date it would be at the dealership. She also gave me a 1 800 334 4375 number for New Vehicle Customer Support that may be able to give me additional information. Anyone call that number?

UPDATE: I called the number above. She gave me some more info - no holds on my build, not waiting on any parts/chips as she would see a note in the system. Said my status is In production and next status that she would see is "In Transit". Said ETA is the date when expected to go to next step of In transit, and not delivery to dealer. Again, saw nothing in the system as to why it would take that long, but she said rumor has it that Ford updates the systems every Thursday and my ETA dates may change. Said much of it may depend on the timing of your build and if the load to your location was already full. Thus, waiting on the next load.

Thanks for the update. Mine says produced as well so we might be on the same train, literally and figuratively

My blend date was 3/3, mods popped early 3/4, in production 3/4, four letter/digit tear tag 3/6, and 3/6/22 now on bottom of my WS. 689/1783. 8/18/20 reservation. I am in production with an ETA of 3/31. As I've been told twice by CS, ETA is reportedly the end date for production (which is, as someone commented, a terrible acronym for what it is for). They also said ETA is an estimate and can change. I saw someone had an ETA of 3/11, but shipped yesterday. However, I think what we are really looking for is EDD (Estimated Date of Delivery).

Anyway, to answer your question, I do not have roof rails. My only options besides MIC on my BD 7MT 4 door are Keyless Entry and Painted Aluminum Rims. Others still in production, what are your options? Trying to find a common denominator, seeing that many others from our week have been built and shipped already.

Again, only roof rails for me. After receiving the ETA of 3/24, which I was told would be the end the production/ship date, I called my dealer. He said he saw where my car had been "produced" however still "in production" which he couldn't explain. Since others have inquired and were told that their cars were not waiting on parts nor chips, and others had been given an ETA of a few weeks out then received notices of being shipped, maybe it's just a system/updating error or shipping delay (trucker convoy??).

Hope to see status change tomorrow. Seems like the people "stuck in production" are rail ones, mostly to the west, the convoy people received ship update throughtout the week.

I had a blend date of 3/4 (actually happened on 3/5) and a 4 digit tear populated on 3/7.

I just got off the phone with Ford and they’ve stated that my “End date was 3/31”. The guy was not sure what the definition of ”end date“ was. I asked if it was the “build completion date” or if it was the “delivery date” and he didn’t know. Ugh! Anyone heard the term “end date” and know what it means?

I was in production since blend date of 3/1. built status showed up this morning, 3/9. 3 character tear tag still. 2.7, base, sasquatch, aux switch, mod bumper. Tracker goes in and out saying built vs. in production so who knows.

Apparently, end date and ETA are the same The CS chat person told me ETA End Date was 3/31/22 also. As you can see from the posts above, they mean the estimated date they are done with production of your Bronco. However, the "End Date" or "ETA End Date" is an estimate and can change. If you read above, there are various thoughts on what it means and why. I do not believe anyone has been given a definitive answer. It has also been said that Ford does some changes on Thursdays, so maybe our End Date or ETA will change.

This is from another thread. Again, I believe ETA, ETA End Date, and End Date all mean the same...

UPDATE: I called the number above. She gave me some more info - no holds on my build, not waiting on any parts/chips as she would see a note in the system. Said my status is In production and next status that she would see is "In Transit". Said ETA is the date when expected to go to next step of In transit, and not delivery to dealer.

Hope this helps, but I really am confused still. It looks like I'm a day ahead of you on blend and 4 digit tear tag. Praying for some better information soon. Good luck!

So I just did the workaround for palsapp and it says delivered today? My pizza tracker still says built but not shipped. I talked to my dealer yesterday and he said ETA this Saturday.

Thoughts?

I would contact them. Worst they can say is they don't know either.

According to the pizza tracker, my Bronco is built and awaiting shipment. WA state, Seattle area. Rail.

Hi 2/28 group. I'm with you all and have a 3/2 blend. Nothing has been updated and I'm on "rail" because of being Oregon. On another thread I found this link

https://www.unitedroad.com/delivery-receipt

I put in my VIN and it has a Load Number, which I hoped meant a delivery was happening. I called the customer line and was unfortunately told they don't have the vehicle yet, but Ford has initiated a potential delivery. She confirmed Ford has not released my 3/2 blend yet.

Update: pizza tracker still says “built” but it is here and getting picked up tomorrow
