Yeah, I just can't figure out why I am not dropping out of this when I have so much disdain for the company as a result of this constant BS. All the manufacturers are having supply issues, and these extend to numerous other industries. It is the borderline-deceitful communications that make me nuts.
Agree 100% with all these comments. The whole thing has been one disappointment after another and embarrassingly bad. And what makes it so sad is how simple it would be to fix it all with a little honest communication. Give an intern the spreadsheet and a day to let them go find each of our seemingly lost vehicles and send us an update why we got left behind.

I will now return to the seemingly endless waiting all alone here at 7/16. No offense, but I would be happy to not see another built notice until me and everyone ahead of me gets some good news. Good luck.

By the way, I spent an hour trying to contact Ford again today to be told for the second time that they’ve never seen “pending update” before and they have no idea what has happened and the only hope is to reach out to the dealer.

Communicate??? I don't think so that takes effort...

I’d like to know what “pending update” even means. My dealer doesn’t know. Usually it goes from Produced to Released. I’ve had my vin since 4/15. Blend date 6/29. In production since 6/30. Top replacement email said. In September. No clue what is really going on.

Right with you. Ford is just making up answers now

the original "bad batch" and "dirt mountain" tweets got some attention, it's about time for a new slogan. Perhaps.... the Left Behind Batch or outsiders.
I'm totally down for bringing back #NoBroncosLeftBehind. That way everyone can jump on board and feel included.

10/25 Update - Another record low day here. Only 4 Built status updates to announce. I wish I had some better news but unfortunately I do not.

Special Note - I have commenced operation Pineapple Pizza in attempts to summon the B6G gods into turning these dismal numbers around so we can return to 20+ Build days like we had in late September. This operation involves utilizing the Beer Fund (that I am eternally grateful to y'all for donating to) to purchase and then drink each this beauty of a beer night until we get the results we want! CHEERS!

And as always - If you have found this information useful, consider "Buying me a Beer", and a big shout out again to all those who already have, Cheers! :D 🍺 !

Do you think the #’s are truly down or do you think people are not posting on the thread anymore? Just wondering

I'm no communications professional, but I think if I ever had the chance to have a beer with Mike Levine, my comment would be "people wouldn't harass you on twitter if you provided updates more than once every 6 weeks".
I don't expect nor want updates on my vehicle from a senior manager at Ford's corporate office (I also couldn't stomach a beer with a character like this guy). What I do expect, however, is for such a person to create a culture and system by which dealerships and customers are given meaningful information on issues like order status, especially in situations in which unreasonable delays are involved. Leaving people in the dark when they are without something as significant as a vehicle suggests this is a company that simply does not care about the customer.

Exactly - I don't need a camera on it with a voiceover explaining exactly what's going on every second, but something more definitive than "we're going to replace your roof sometime in a particular 30 day time period" would be nice.

So another observation is my ETIS won’t load any thing now “cannot download data from PTI service” maybe something is happening I doubt it though
Edit: AEM Services also just went all ‘Null’ values!!

I can't be the only one that feels like the shipping part of this wait is the worst?
No, I agree. Just knowing it’s finally heading your way makes me antsy. I keep daydreaming about when I pull into the dealership and see it for the first time. The days can’t pass quick enough!
