🗓️ Bronco Scheduling Raptor Only This Week (5/25/23). Stop Build / Production Delay on Heritage & Heritage Limited

[Nellezhar]

Ok cool we can change trims if not scheduled then so do we lose our place in line or no?

As far as I know you do not lose your place. That I'm not 100% certain on.

Hmmmm...ok. Well my Dealership and Ford Customer Service told me they can't input a Bronco order or change until Ford opens up their Bronco Order Banks in the Fall

How is your Dealership creating a Bronco order change for you?? I want to know so I can do it.

I think that's the confusion, they're not creating an order for me. They're changing an existing order.

I've asked multiple dealers in my area, Long Mc Aurthur Ford has mentioned its possible in streams, Johnny Car reviews and others. I have an appointment Friday. They told me I don't even have to come in, but I insisted.

Please come back on Friday and tell us how it went.

I did just email dealer to ask if switching from HE to either badlands or Wildtrak would get scheduled faster. Seems those are being built, I like those models as well and luxe packages with capabilities.

If your dealer has any allocations left for a ‘23 Wildtrak or Badlands.
As far as Lux packages; there are still constraints with the chip shortages. My dealer told me to downgrade my order from Lux to High, if I wanted to get my Bronco built in ‘23. Talk to your dealer to find out their remaining allocations based on trims. Good luck!

APQP = Advanced Product Quality Planning

You can plan all sorts of things, but they can't anticipate what may happen with the hundreds of suppliers they utilize, so yes, COVID played a major factor in this.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but were Raptors not a separate order and scheduling process?

I don't fully understand this. Can someone help?

Does it mean there will also be an entire week dedicated to producing Raptors only? Are these all for already allocated vehicles or could this mean a new batch of allocations will be given out?

I wonder if this is the way all Raptors are made - in dedicated weeks? Doesn't seem like this is a good way to make them. The lines capacity is about 2500 vehicles per week, that's a lot of Raptors for a week...

This is a scheduling event and not a production event. While these units may end up having similar production weeks, the dates will def get moved and mixed in with other bronco trims.

I bet ford has a few unscheduled raptors and just wants to put a date on them

I would not take this to mean they are awarding new allocations

I hope so and I hope my raptor order is selected, I guess I’ll find out Thursday or Friday while I check my email all day lol

Yes different ...

Haven’t heard much at all in a while about Webasto and what I thought was going to be a second factory. Typical lack of transparency and communication from Ford.

 

[Raptor911]

ask your dealer if your order is getting previewed. If yes, then there is a high probability you are getting scheduled this week. Also ask them what is your PC

I have nothing else to add, but I wanted my profile picture from 2022 Super Cel West to be part of the conversation. A Heritage in the wild!
