🛠 5/8/2023 Build Week Group

[WT205]

I know brother very frustrating! I spoke to them this morning and said that I was scheduled to leave the plant today! Not holding my breath though! Good luck to y’all!

For yours and everyone else in this build week's sake- I hope you do ship today. That feels like a win for all of us.

Ford chat this AM- still showing as "In Production" but "no holds" with an estimated delivery of today through the 6th?

This is the same message I get but my date is 6/4.

 

[WT205]

I have received a message from my dealer today saying the bronco can be here any day and I should be prepared for the documents. But on the tracker it still has been stucked "In Prodcution" since 05/14. Build week of 05/10.

Also talked to online chat a few days ago and they had no idea.

Ps: Toronto, Canada - Convoy

That sounds like a form email from the dealer TBH. I bet everyone gets that email regardless of status. I do think the Ford tracker and email updates are garbage and don't really mean anything- and lately they seem to be worse than ever.

I mean, if they all show up randomly at our dealerships in the next week, none of us will complain but we know that's not going to happen.

Yea that’s what I was hoping for! I guess it keeps me in my toes and my anxiety levels up!

Oh how come?

a few things, early this year when they said drop sasquatch and other options or you won't get a 23 I told my salesman to cancel the order. He gave me my deposit back but of course won't be cancelling the order, and is still letting me have 1st shot at it when it hits the lot, which is nice. After I cancelled, I picked up something else, and of course get the email from ford a couple weeks later that its being built.

-price increase since original order
-my wife has a 21 explorer platinum that has been problem after problem, and is making me rethink ford in general for a while
- just the general lack of communication and misinformation on the whole order process on the part of ford and the dealer has left a bad taste in my mouth

I'll still go check it out when it gets delivered but theres prob like a 10% chance I'll actually get it now

that is 100% fair points your making. This whole experience has made it very likely that this bronco will be my last ford. I do plan to keep this one and take care of it for 10+ years. But ya. This has been too much of a clusterfuck for me to feel comfortable with ordering thru them again. If I ever did get another ford, it would probably be right off the lot. Fuck the order process

Nothing new for me. Still "In Production" since 5/9. Talked to my dealer last week and he said it is still due to be delivered 6/4 - 6/10 and said it should be on a train, but I think he was just speculating. My guess is that it is being held up for some reason. Until one of us takes delivery, there is no way to tell.

Yeah, I’m not trusting anything Ford chat says until I get a rail car number or a “Built” email.

 

[WT205]

4/24 build week post- their dealer reported a lack of rail cars and a large backlog of unshipped broncos. Checks out with the posts in March and April build threads.

Bad news: A lot of March is still waiting to be "Shipped".
Good news: April has seen a lot of progress in shipping or waiting to be "Shipped".
Bad news: Late April still has some in "In Production" purgatory.

Thanks brother for putting that together, I’m sure that takes a lot of work. Definitely makes it a whole lot easier to understand. But doesn’t make any less frustrated! But trying to stay positive and hope they can get there shit together and we all will be seeing our new whips soon!

 

[Danny's Bronco]
