[rainman23]

I feel ya! I think we are still on the same train? Mine left Pasco, WA this morning after being there for over 24 hours. It appears to be heading to Portland to be put on a truck. Happy with the progress.

That’s the one! What dealer are you with?

*BrOnCo SpEcIaLiSt* Hello my name is _____ How can I help you?
*Me* Hi ______. I'd like the railcar information for my shipped Bronco. I used to work in production control for another automaker and have experience tracking freight by rail.
*BrOnCo SpEcIaLiSt* Oh we don't have access to that info, you might want to talk to your dealer. If you can confirm your vin I can tell you where it is.
*Me* provides vin

LONG PAUSE

*BrOnCo SpEcIaLiSt* Uhm sir, your Bronco hasn't been built yet....
*Me* What? I have a picture of it from Ford.........

Howdy, I have seen one post that seems to have a similar situation as me, but I am curious if there might be anyone else. My 4DR Badlands had a 3/18 build date, and all trackers still show In Production. I contacted the Ford Chat and asked about the status, they said ETA was 4/10. Contacted the dealer and they said ETA was 4/4. Either date would be awesome, but I don't trust it even got built. Anyone else out there in my situation? Destination is Sonoma County, CA.

Same exact situation stuck "In Production". 3/18 Blend Ford chat told me yesterday "Plant Delay" ETA is 4/10. 4DR Big Bend Mid Package

Did you ever get a rail car number? Mine is sitting in Selkirk NY train yard waiting for a ride to my dealer. Ford says 4/4-4/10 but dealer says 4/20

Unfortunately I did not. Probably a good thing because I'd be checking it all the time.
I was surprised I even got an ETA.

 

[Cfdchris161]

I bet it says dispatched now…

Yep it says dispatched now, not sure if it means they sent it or asked for hauler to get it? But we are getting close to getting them at the dealership !!!!!!!

The order track app is now saying “In Transit”

Yes I think there are a few of us stuck “in production”. I am a 3/15 blend.

Did the paperwork this morning and brought “Oscar” the grouch home tonight at 7:30 the build looks good, all the body lines are good, top looks good. Hopefully that speaks for all the 3/14er’s they didn’t seem to have any hiccups with that build week. Down the line and shipped in a hurry! Drives like a dream compared to the 2020 2 door jeep. Quiet until about 65 with a roof rack. Materials are on par with the jeep, base sound system is also on par with the jeep base sound system. I get the feeling there is a young bunch of whiners littering this forum, just a few years ahead of legal drinking age. Who still destroy their cars putting “systems” in them. The bronco exceeds my initial quality expectations based on all the complaining on here. It made me almost want to back out of the whole deal. I have been actively reading a lot on this forum since I placed my res. 10/30/20 despite only recently joining and participating as the bronco started to become a reality. So here’s to good luck for all the 3/14er’s “Color me Green” Green w/ Envy!

Blend: 3/15
Built: 3/16

Both the Ford and Order track app have been stuck in awaiting shipment since 3/21. Today I called my dealer who sent me a screenshot of an eta of 4/19 - 4/25. Roughly 2 hours later the Ordertrack app said "In Transit" and now "Delivered". Ford pizza tracker is still stuck on Built. Just goes to show how crazy all of this is.

Hopefully Ordertrack is the right one and the dealer calls tomorrow. Can't wait for this to be over lol

I have a 3/19 blend date for my Cactus Grey Wildtrak, and after two year I can't believe it finally made it to my dealer, SAC, this past Monday! Unfortunately, SAC is about 6.5 hrs away from my home in northern Virginia, so I'm heading to Charleston, WV on Saturday to pick her up.

Here's my question:

My dealer, SAC, is only showing a rebate of $695 in their Smart Vincent system. My build on 3/19 pushed my Window sticker to the new 22.5 MY pricing, therefore, I believe I'm due an adjusted rebate of $2445. (additional $1,750 to cover the 22.5 MY price increase)

Has anyone else run into this situation with their dealer? How did you resolve it?

SAC has been a great dealership to work with, but I believe I am one of the first Broncos they're selling with the new 22.5 price uplift and they are unaware of how to support price protection from Ford.

I really don't want to pay an additional $1,750 when Ford committed they would stick to their price protection for early customers. Thx.

its 11:23pm i just saw the apptracker HOLY shit FRIDAY,FRIDAY FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!! WE MIGHT HAVE OUR BRONCOS!!!!!!!!!!!! I MIGHT HAVE TO CAMP OUT IN PARKING LOT OF DEALER !!!!

 

[JackBNimble]

@Ford Motor Company


Can you chime in on when dealers will see these certificates in SmartVincent?

Did you receive any feedback on when the additional rebate to cover the 22.5 MY increase will be available? Looks like our Bronco's were built on the same date. My Window Sticker now reflects the new 22.5 price increase and my dealer isn't showing any additional rebate for me.

Mine says "Shipping Record Not Found" and shows a blend date of 3/18 and thats incorrect so I don't know

Mine’s coming by rail, and I’m only showing ASN. But Bronco should be here in about a week or so, so it didn’t seem right that it would still just be waiting to be assigned. Starting to think the the ASN > Picked > whatever is only valid on convoy, so wanted to test that theory against who I knew was actively tracking their rail. Thanks!

 

[Rattle-N-Hum]

That’s the one! What dealer are you with?

Van Cleve in Morton, WA. Thought my railcar was bound for Renton, WA but Portland makes more since. Hope there are enough truck drivers to get our rigs out asap.

I’ve tracked mine with the CSX railcar phone number - 1 (800) 235-2352!

Mine has went from Wayne, MI to Blue Island, IL to Gibson, IN to Joliet, IL and as of “March 30th 4:33AM is now at Logistic Park, IL” sitting at this rail yard as it’s yet to update further
