[HeatherJ]

I’m just over here anxiously waiting for the “you’ve been shipped” email.

i've had an in production date of 4/27 and still no update on the tracker. ford chat said 5/13-19 delivery then when i asked this week they said that was the date for completing the build. The BCE's popped like 4/29...no idea what the hold-up is. supply chain issues aside, if they schedule the build you'd think it would take a couple of days not weeks. They've been doing assembly line production for like 120 years.

Its chips...

Agree....I posted on another thread that in Automotive News this week, Ford said they had 53,000 vehicles that were waiting on chips or related parts. Crazy. Those they have shipped are fortunate.

Very fortunate.. But it'll happen.. I read a post from a person that works at a build plant and they included other issues on the hold. Headlights, air leak near pillar, some sensor... Probably others too.. A bit worried about what issues I am going to have with it once I get it..

I purchased 10 year 100,000 mile bumper to bumper so I am not going to worry about it. All first year vehicles seem to have issues that get resolved over the years.

Purchase through your dealer or elsewhere?

I agree, it has been fun. You all ,automatically, seem like my friends. I'm sure we are all different ages, races, live in different locations and everyone may not agree on everything, but we all have something in common in the Bronco that connects us all. Weird how a vehicle can do that? We should have our own club here "The 5/2 Build Crew....lol" to keep in touch with what we discover and learn and share about our Bronco's in the month's to come.

i would join that group! i agree i was late to the game posting here but has been nice chatting with everyone. I know trackers said "shipped" yesterday but always nice to get the email this morning!!! About 3 weeks away from getting our "Wicked" Bronco!!!!!

For the reservation holders here, will the $100 deposit go toward the purchase of the vehicle, and by whom? (will it come from FoMoCo or dealer?)
Also, my dealer had a $900 deposit when I converted the reservation to an order in March of 2021. Anyone else?

My dealer had a 1000 dollar deposit, but the owner waved it for my order.

Its chips...

As of yesterday, i was told my vehicle has no holds

Just woke up to the built email. Shipping estimate says May 31- June 6. No tear tag yet though. Didn't think I would get the email since I've only gotten about half of Ford's emails. Never even got an email that it was in production lol. Super greatful for the b6g tracker and the crew here to stay updated on it. Thanks guys.

Your welcome! @Cwill79 appears to be the VERY FIRST 5/2 Build week to have Bronco arrived at dealer. It appears that it arrived in Louisville, KY at his dealer at 4:33 a.m. this morning! Congratulations...let us know what you find out this morning!!!

Salesman said it’s there. Said they have to service it? I assume that’s more of an inspection. He’s supposed to let me know when he can get that scheduled.

I would wave the PDI if I could!

Little update, got the built email and tracker shows awaiting shipment. No tear tag and pizza tracker still shows “in production”.

Overall good forward progress.

 

[HeatherJ]

If I called ford, would they be able to provide any information on when they think my Bronco will be shipped? Emails with ford are so unreliable and my ford tracker almost never works

Some of our group will take delivery before some of the earlier weeks for sure. It's not terrible, but maybe it was our communication here and teamwork...lol

5/2 week for the win! My estimate for delivery is 5/22-28
