Bronco build week 9/18/2023

[HowieLong]

I am also stuck on status "in production" and have no window sticker. No modules of course either. My last update date was 09/13/23.

My gut tells me this strike won't be resolved by the next UAW deadline on Friday.

Try different devices and browsers to check for your window sticker. The first time I checked was on my Android phone using Chrome and it worked. When I try on my computer using Chrome it doesn't work. Doesn't work for me using the Edge browser either but it does work for me using Firefox. I am not sure how it works using Apple products as I don't have any.

That just does not seem possible @Williamoscar23 especially since final assy at MAP are striking. Can you get any more details or share his post? I'm curious on his whole timeline, modules, VIN, scheduled for production, in production, etc.

Right I am in disbelief as well, I asked for more details in the comments but no response as of yet here’s the link:

Thank you for this feedback I am going to try this.

I had a schedule blend date of 9/18 but haven't had any updates. When I go to check my window sticker now, it won't load anymore. It was loading just fine last week. Not sure if they will provide some type of updated window sticker with a new blend date of production has shut down.

I followed up and got a response he said his build week was the 4th which makes sense the tracker isn’t the best at updating.

Same here. My blend date was 9/18 and as of this morning, my window sticker doesn’t show up anymore either.

What is the normal timeline from the time it goes into production until it arrives at your door?
When there is not strike obviously. We are trying to decide if we want to make a move on an f150 while we wait on the Bronco. I went into "production" last Thursday but there have been no more updates since.

My salesmen originally told me it would take about 4-6 weeks from the production week (09/18) to get it and projected me getting it by the end of October (pre-strike) and I’m in Phoenix so pretty far from the plant.

There hasn't been much of a norm ever since launch. That said I've seen a general shortening of this time in the months leading up to the strike. So, just when things were normalizing... There have been significant delays prior due to lack of chips and hardtops. Train journeys (and associated logistics) have also been variable and lengthy. Obviously now, it's all unknown.

Update from Long McArthur gives me the piece of mind to stop checking my tracker so often. I feel like I knew this but just needed that reassurance nothing is getting built at MAP.

If the guy comes back with good numbers this morning, I am skipping the line and buying one. Was able to find our exact build for sticker . . . just having to pay to get it delivered. My wife doesn't want to wait anymore. Gonna see if the dealership we ordered from will let us apply the deposit to a 24 F150 Platty

With the interwebs these days you can know more and know things sooner than your dealer.

We know that final assembly and paint at MAP have been down since day 1 of the strike. There have been some reports of build progress during this period but with final assy. shot down I suspect those are simply delays in reporting/IT systems.

The lack of additional strikes today on Ford (instead singling out GM and Stls.) was a very positive thing IMO.

If DANA continues to layoff there won’t be any axles.

Yeah I feel like the people getting updates was a delay with the tracker as those folks have build weeks prior the the 18th from what I’ve seen.
I agree it definitely is a positive that they are not striking ford more as it confirms this is good progress which gives me hope that at this pace we can see ford make a deal soon if talks keep going in this direction.

Spoke with my dealer today and they said that my Bronco was built awaiting final prep . . . It moved to "In production" on 9/14 and he said had a final buile date of 9/21.
HOW? If the plant is Closed, how can it be built . . . or is it now going ot sit for final finish at the currently closed plant?
