If there really is no viable MIC top fix, then Ford needs to develop an alternative solution that is viable....like a 2-door soft top.I think it is more the bad press and user experience on the MIC and some on the soft top too have scared the shit out of them, so no produced units are getting shipped, and almost all tops are being rejected. So they can’t figure out what mix to schedule.
Worse, there is no viable volume MIC top fix in the near future (like the rest of 21 and into 22).
If Ford just admitted they are going to be a year and a half behind on filling reservations because of the supply chain issues, I would respect that and it would be impossible to really blame Ford.I appreciate the frustration here but do you really think this is something that people can plan through. I’ve worked in supply chain for over 20 years and I’ve never seen anything like this. I have seen short term disruptions to the supply chain but we are talking about a sustained 18 month shortage of everything… raw materials, parts and labor.
I want my Bronco too, it sucks, but trying to blame this on the production planners at Ford and claiming they need to be fired because they can’t schedule anything because they don’t have line of sight to 25% of the parts is ridiculous. You want someone at a one step above entry level position to lose their job because the entire supply chain is broken right now?
Well mine was for 2 weeks for QC and it has to have a door repainted next week because it looks like edge a few inches long didn't get painted and lines don't match up with fender .the windows catch the trim on opening no matter how slow I go, Dealer put in for a new top because they thought it had issues and mirror is scuffed/cracked?... Oh and one of the shocks looks off to dealer so that going to be replaced..... That is after it sat for 2 weeks 6-28 buildImagine being ON this forum and realizing FORD has know idea what is happening with my Bronco stranded at MAP for 32 days and counting…with no end in sight!
Oh…Levine said “quality checks”!
I fully expect to, someday, receive the most QA checked vehicle known to man!
From that angle the front looks like something Cadillac would build.On the plus side, I am getting very excited for Nissan 400Z production reveal on the 17th. I just might place an order on that one too, and see which gets here first.

Takes a lot of courage. True champion. Go Ford!Ford has officially withdrawn from all scheduling events, in order to focus on mental health.
Agreed. This is getting really old really fast. Very disappointed. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHY???Holy f*#k Ford.....
Also laughing at "Ramping up for full production"
I know I shouldn't, but I always laugh when I see that GIF/video...especially the "Turn Down For What" version.Bronco production ramped up to full speed
And I’m 100% ok with blaming Ford and having a major issue with Ford’s communication. But claiming an entry level planner position should be fired because they couldn’t schedule Broncos today is what I think is a little overboard.If Ford just admitted they are going to be a year and a half behind on filling reservations because of the supply chain issues, I would respect that and it would be impossible to really blame Ford.
If they gave any guidance, I would be fine with it. But the current "maybe some Thursday" system is Ford created problem.
Ok if all that is the case then maybe they really need all this time for QCWell mine was for 2 weeks for QC and it has to have a door repainted next week because it looks like edge a few inches long didn't get painted and lines don't match up with fender .the windows catch the trim on opening no matter how slow I go, Dealer put in for a new top because they thought it had issues and mirror is scuffed/cracked?... Oh and one of the shocks looks off to dealer so that going to be replaced..... That is after it sat for 2 weeks 6-28 build
HA you beat me to it. Yep another sticker and poster should keep the natives calm.....Well sure it’s bad news but at least I’ll get a cool poster and sticker soon…right ? right???
It's almost Audi SQ5 time...
The way the driver drops like weekend at Bernies, gets me everytimeI know I shouldn't, but I always laugh when I see that GIF/video...especially the "Turn Down For What" version.
