06/06/22 Build Week Group

So how many people in this build week still in production, but have mods and a tear tag?

Me. Ford chat says my “production” will be complete on July 12th however there are no holds. Blend date 6/6, mods and rear tag shortly after. I do not understand at all… Don’t even have a delivery window…

I think the challenge for all of us is that we have both too much and too little information. We can see just enough behind the curtain to be annoyed we don't have the full story.

This problem is there are too many people that can't handle the truth so everything has to be filtered. If you tell someone their Bronco is sitting in a railyard somewhere with no specific plan yet on when it will be shipped to the next staging point, folks will complain about that. If you tell them nothing, they'll complain about that. If you tell them filtered info, they'll complain about that. No way to make everyone happy.

I do agree with you in principle. However Ford has really blown this launch. I’m an early res holder, and just my personal experience is; a friend already has their build on a walk in order from this year. My dealer has a similar build from the same build week and production run 900 units after mine sitting on their lot. Scheduled build weeks after mine are already way into the delivery process. A Bronco could practically roll from MAP to my dealer, so shipping isn’t a real concern.

I didn’t order a 60k dollar truck to complain. But there is, from where I’m sitting, cause for concern. Waiting 2 years just makes it that much worse.

I’m happy that the process worked for so many, and they’re on their way to enjoying their purchase. Me, and I think quite a few people, are just annoyed that for us, the process is clearly broken and there is no information as to what to really expect.

I was a very late sequence for 6/7 and took delivery yesterday. Haven’t stopped grinning since. Absolutely smitten with this thing. Added some cosmetic stuff that’s been sitting in my garage waiting for this!

Agreed. I’m in the same boat as you. So close just to have no idea what is going on now. As far as I know I’m the only one who was told by Ford which day to expect production to be complete. (July 12) after receiving mods and a rear tag within 2 days of the blend date (6/6). At least if I had a delivery window that would be something. Nobody knows what production expected to be completed 7/12 means… Oh, but no holds…. Very frustrating.

Any thoughts on the emblems? Like?, dislike? Looking for affirmation here

It's a nice change of pace from the script emblem that has been replacing all the stickers. I like it.

You might want to call or try chat again. I was told by one chat person that my "production was to be complete on 7/11." However, multiple other chat sessions said delivery to my dealer is expected to be 7/11. I think there is at least one chat person who doesn't know that the ETA they give is delivery and is telling people its the completion of production.

Yes! I was originally told 7/12 delivery date on chat, then the next time I tried chat I was told 7/12 production completion date. I even told them that the last person had told me 7/12 was the delivery date and I wanted to clarify but they stressed that was not the case. I thought it was weird that I got an exact date and not a range. I will definitely reach out to Ford again tomorrow. What status is yours currently in with the tracker? Thanks

Agreed. I've talked to 5 or so different people on chat... cause I'm obsessive. Also talked to dealer. All but 1 say it's "in production" but eta to delivery is July 2-8. One rep was adamant it was to be completed between July 2-8.

Good to know. I'm still showing in production as well so I guess I'll check again Wednesday.

im waiting for a chat agent. hopefully get an update this week!

EDIT:
Just got off chat. No idea what the "ETA" is supposed to mean. Is that delivery date?

"Based on what I can see, your vehicle is currently in production, and has an ETA of July 11th."

EDIT:
" This is the Estimated Time of Arrival at the Ford dealership. Please also kindly note that once the vehicle arrives at the dealership, they will still need to perform arrival inspections to ensure that the vehicle is indeed ready for you. "

Did you ask what the hold up is for shipping if there are no holds? Looks like I am in the same boat except i have an actual date and not a window.
