4/24/2023 Build Week

[Pressurized]

Well it’s gone back to “order confirmed” which means the status should change to shipped in a Few days.

Of coarse news hits that my industry is basically gonna shut down during the WGA and SAG strikes. And then the same day my bronco ships.

Ah well hopefully by the time they can actually sell it to me after the recall fix, the animation shows will start being green lit again .

Dang... I hope your timing works out. For what it's worth, they are saying no solution until Q4. I find that hard to believe, but we'll see. It affects many of us, just a little differently.

This is not a global recall right, just to US?

I don’t know. Would think it would effect Canada too?

Canada affected. But Q4 is way too rediculous. They are just waiting for the clip to come in. How hard is to design and manufacture it？

I spoke with my dealer and he said they will be able to sell the vehicle and i will have to get back to get the recall addressed when they get the part.

Is that an exception for your dealer?

Don't want to rain on your possible good news, but I'm pretty sure sales rep (I'm assuming its your rep) isn't aware that selling a new vehicle with a stop sale notice / open safety recall could bring on a fine per infraction ($26k where I'm at) to the dealer and they could see other penalties as well depending on a number of things. Waivers aren't allowed either apparently.

I am extremely hopeful that your dealer has found a way around all this for your sake! If they did, please share with us all in the same "so close yet so far" situation and maybe we can relay some of those details to our dealers and join you!

We should all complain. This recall is not a real thing.

As far as I know at the dealership where I purchased my Bronco, they have 1 sales person that handles all of the Bronco orders. This whole situation is money out of his pocket for quite a while... Pretty poor move all around!

4/25 Build week, still says "in production" on tracker. Confirmed on a few different calls with Ford Marketing my Bronco was indeed produced and awaiting transport. Was able to get in touch with Ford corporate via email and they have promised to give me weekly updates and bring it up at appropriate meetings. Next update is this Wednesday.

VIN: 7177

How did you reach ford corporate? If you don't mind me asking. My bronco has been waiting shipment since may 6th, now is sitting with a flat tire since June 8th and couldn't ship. I'm a little frustrated and no one has anwsers for me. My dealer has tried everything he can, so I was just curious how you reached them, if your able to give me details. Please

So finally my truck after three months of sitting there at the manufacturer. With no stupid seatbelt fix in sight. These dumb asses from Ford could’ve fix this any point while it was waiting to be built since 4/26. Again this just goes to show you what a dog shit company ford it is. And it’s not to any surprise at the stock fell 5% today.

Just spoke with my salesman as well and he said they absolutely can not deliver it until the recall is addressed. No idea when they will have the parts to do so.

Is it possible that some of the recall was addressed while they sat in production purgatory and just not updated in the system?

unlikely but I'll update once I get my bronco... I think still a week out.
