Bronco Build Week 4/10/2023

[96ExplorerSport]

I checked the spreadsheet, you have neither modules nor tear tag?
I was 541/872 on the 14th. Have modules but no tear tag or email, going to Chapman.
2dr OB, lux, 2.7

Looks like my email is a built and hold version.
Whatever that means.

makes it kinda tough to get a flight into Des Moines to pick it up...Not exactly a thousand flights going into that airport a day and I need to plan off work etc...

I think you will be ok. Granger is pretty good at working with you. When my Sport arrived, I wasn’t really watching the trackers. The finance group contacted me first to provide paperwork. Flying out of Madison wasn’t that easy either. Had to fly to MSP then to DSM. All worked out fine.

BigFootie, do you have a Sport and a full-size Bronco? If so can you please tell (at your convenience) if the front seat Sport headrests fit the FSB front seats?
I want to buy Sport roast colored headrests to replace the black ones that come with the FSB roast interior if they will fit

In looking back at past posts on plant holds, it looks like there was a hold affecting builds exactly a year ago to the day of my build 4/11.

I got the same built email for my 4/11 build on 4/13. I got the shipped email the next day. 5 weeks to get to Texas is shocking but I’ve waited this long.

I wouldn’t read too much into the notifications.

my 4/13 didn’t have a tear tag till late friday. I got the built email today. I’ll be worried if i don’t get a shipped email by Tuesday Or Wednesday. I’m not too worried about this build. I have to go to Iowa to get it so after Memorial Day is fine.

I was blend date 4/13 381/868. Modules popped up late night or early next morning. I got a built and hold email over the weekend. Todays it’s showing final prep at dealer? Could it be at the dealer already?

I got the same "built but holding' email many others have gotten. No idea what modules or tear tags are though.

Mine is a 2-door btw. If that makes a difference on the hold. Do we know anything else about what this hold even is?

Looks like it. What did the dealer say?

Reached out to my dealer this morning. The only thing different that he was able to tell me compared to my tracker is that their system is showing it as “produced” with an ETA of 4/30. But without any rail or shipping info, I’m not holding my breath.

Got the shipped email this morning at 3am. The ford site that links your VIN shows estimated delivery 5/1 to 5/14. The Ford reservation site shows estimated 5/4 to 5/10.

I tossed out the idea of me flying to Des Moines on May 11 to my wife and got the, "so you're flying to pick up your Bronco on Mother's Day weekend?"

Good luck to all on here.

More importantly, how does your mother feel about it?

Built, awaiting shipping email on one (with estimated delivery to dealership 04/11-04/17 - well that time frame is not going to happen), and Built but holding email on the Granger one. Tracker shows estimated delivery of 05/04-05/10 for Granger order that is in holding.

Still no built email on a 4/12 blend. In production on 4/13. Wondering if I'm either going to be stuck in purgatory for a month or it'll be on the dealer lot before I ever get a built notification haha. Who knows maybe both!
