Same here, originally told build date of 8/29, but is now 8/30

I'm hopping over here from the 8/22 build week and originally the 8/15 build week. I suppose one day I might get an actual build day that will stick.

Also, spoke to Ford chat. My build day was moved from 8/30 to 9/2. ETA remained the same for week of 9/18-9/24. Spreadsheet updated.

I'm in a similar situation and have a build the week of August 8th, 2022... which was weeks ago and no movement..... For those were in this situation.... how long typically does the "build" phase typically take? Is the order in the "build" phase for weeks or months?

Do you have a window sticker? Did your modules pop a day or two after your blend date? If so then your Bronco has been assembled.

The update to get a "Built" email from Ford is that all items on your Bronco are complete. E.G. a roof rack is added at the aftermarket shop and that will extend the build time a couple of days. If there was a part missing during your build while it was rolling down the assembly line then you are waiting on that part to get installed. That part could be a computer module (chip) or could be something else. Or, they could have randomly selected your Bronco for additional QA testing which will add time to your build status.

It is very frustrating to know when your Bronco rolled down the assembly line and then it gets left behind while other Bronco's assembled after yours are being delivered.

I've even got my sales person looking out for my Bronco. She has been great ever since I placed my order 20 months ago. She's always communicating by email every couple of weeks. She even knows that I'm checking all of the web links daily but she still takes a moment to communicate.

Example, today I get this email:

Hi, Bryan!
Your order is still scheduled for the week of 08/029. I'll let you know
if anything changes!


Cheers to the great sales folks and good dealerships out there.

No window sticker. I called Ford Marketing and the gentleman said it could be 3-4 weeks before the “build” is complete. Then comes the obvious shipping and transportation logistics.

Hi all, I just got the bump to the 8/29 week. First it was week of 8/15 then 8/22 and now I’m here. Hope all of our dates stick this time around!

 

[Bronc6g22]

Still holding at 8/30 build day. Hope the week of 8/22 goes smoothly at MAP.

Hi new friends, I'm here from the 8/22 build week.

8/22>8/24>8/27>8/25>8/27 and now 9/1.

 

[Cable Guy]

And… he’s bumped (now week of 9/5)

 

[66Fan]

I'm out.
Headed to 9/5 week
Backdoor indicates as such anyway... no communication from Ford (shocker).
Good luck everyone!

Tim,

Did you get the email for 8/29 build week back when everyone else did? I did not.
I just checked and as of now I'm still 9/12.....
My 2/2 build week group had two deliveries this week and I think they were the last two; hopefully more recent build week folks will get built and shipped in a more timely fashion.

I did... about two weeks ago. That's the only email I've received from Ford (other than Off-Roadeo) in the last year. I didn't even get one notifying me of the bump to 09/05.

Welp, just checked backdoor link and I got bumped to build week 9/5. Good luck to those that are still part of 8/29.
