Thoughts from the board

July 15th 2020 reservation, converted to an order in January 2021. Badlands/4DR/Sasquatch/Dualtops/AnimaterBlue/Towing/Lux - basically all the stuff they didn't have. Converted to a MY22 in October 2021. They've finally built it and shipped it to Denver. Only for the windshield to be damaged and dealer won't fix it until corporate signs off on the claim. Its now 2+ years after reservation and several concessions on color/tops/etc.

In advance of going in to take delivery I asked them to look at the credits available (Schomp Ford). They said no customer satisfaction funds available. $825 rebate shows in smart vincent for part of the price protection (I guess they mail the other piece after delivery).

Anyone had experience getting credit(s) lately? Ideas?

At this point, I'm tempted to tell them to just keep it.

Ford chat claims to have no idea, phone number says its up to dealer, Schomp Ford says if its not in smart vincent they won't give credit.

If you can get it at MSRP, take it and keep or flip. It is, however very much worth the wait.

Isn't Schomp on the naughty list? https://www.bronco6g.com/naughty-dealerships-hall-of-shame-surprise-adm-list/

BTW, if you had given up the second top in lieu of soft only you would be driving around in a 21 only AMB. And 200,000 + Ford Pass Points extra

Do you mean rebates or discounts? Follow the flow chart for the price protection rebates available (I was going to link it but you can search it out yourself. No other rebates available for Bronco.

Are you expecting the dealer to discount the price further now that it is about to show up??

Referencing the dealer satisfaction credit in the google doc checklist below. Although that offer may have expired.

If you don't want it and aren't excited to get it then let it go. Those are the only reasons to buy it

Price protection is messed up, but if they are getting you the car at msrp plus some price protection then that's a win in my book

Okay, that program ended in June and is no longer available. For what it is worth, it was up to $1k per buyer but if dealers spread their allowance evenly it was more like a couple hundred per buyer and was designed for swag or accessories, not cash. It also seems most dealers did not participate as the reimbursement rules were tricky at best.

My customer satisfaction became a hoodie. But it's really nice! Lol
