I was also built on 7/20. 8102. (2dr BD) So not far off from you. But I’ve received zero communications from ford or updates on the tracker.

🤔
7/20, 8892. Nothing

I like it more than I thought I would. The Rapid Red looks better than I thought, the base steelies have as high an entry as my wife’s Tacoma which actually takes the urgency to upgrade the tire and wheel package.
Ford pass DOES in fact auto start the base.
The sound system isn’t TERRIBLE.
Having owned a 2000, 2003, and 2004 Wrangler, not only do I think the Bronco rides nicer than those, but maybe nicer than my wife’s 2021 sr5 Tacoma.
The rear seats do basically fold flat.
the rear view camera is awesome and does have the active lines that change as you steer.
Bluetooth operation seems quicker and smoother than my 2018 Subaru…
Happier than I thought I would be… but I AM a huge pessimist.



but at the same time the dealership I bought from, two salespersons and the finance manager have orders that they haven’t had build dates yet… so, I wish everyone could get more specific info.
that is great news, thanks!!! A few of my buddies have Tacomas and I cant wait to go get some exploring done with these guys. This is my first vehicle like this. I have had an Expedition and F250 as previous trucks... this will be, i know it will, the most fun vehicle I have ever had! btw the rapid red looks so good... i hope i like the antimatter blue even more! (rapid red was the other side of the coin toss)...

Ha! Quick update on my status - today, my Bronco is in Little Rock Arkansas. That's a fairly significant detour on any known path between Detroit and Northern Utah. I'm just cracking up now. :)
I got excited for a second...I thought someone in Little Rock had received theirs. Hopefully it makes its way to you soon.

Sorry for the confusion! Haha!

I was surprised to hear mine had gone south to Little Rock since it'll have to come back north to Kansas City to turn west. I figure Union Pacific must be putting together a set of cars there to ship in this direction. Otherwise, it wouldn't make much sense. :)

Looks like a big part of the trouble for the Bronco rollout is the tops. For a German company that builds tops for several other trucks they sure could do a better job on QC. I mean how are these bad tops getting out of their factory to begin with? I know from speaking to someone that the tops are for sure holding up my build and lots of others.

Sold my f150 today. 😬 couldn’t pass up the way values are right now… really hope I’m not driving this fiesta for too long…

Some part of me is just hoping things are magically moving along and my bronco is on a train….
Haha I feel this. Sold mine to Carvana last week. Driving an electric c-max while we wait. Just awful! My EST arrival changed from 8/2 to 8/5. 🙃

The bad MIC situation is understandable but us “softies” being held up makes little or no sense to me... unless it’s the rock rails on my BL or the semiconductor issue...

all I would like is a little- just a little insight from Mother Ford..
any chance you have a Tow Package? That's the 2nd highest percentage of holdups.

thanks for the info… I got the build email today, super stoked!!!!
You love your truck?
I’m in CT as well. What’s your build date and rotation? My dealer said it gets shipped by rail then a holding yard in NJ. He said sometimes it’s in the holding yard for up to two weeks but sometimes it’s the next day it ships from there.

Estimating September to be completely honest
The word has been they're off to the MOD center for repair/replacement.

Is your thinking of Sept/Oct based on the majority needing replacement...and Webasto still under-delivering on quantity?

I haven't counted, but anecdotally, there seem to be many many August MIC builds getting bump emails.

Yup. You figure about 5000+ have issue. Let’s say 3000 need repairs. That’s around 100 repairs a day including weekends. Then final pre-delivery. Then approximately 1-2 weeks to ship.

and 3000 may be modest.
