2/21/2022 Build Week Group

[wolfman064]

For all still In Production or Delayed at plant in this group, is anyone actually being told what the delay is for? My dealer is saying transportation and 800 person is telling me they think it’s bc the vehicle needs to be finished or corrected

Both dealer and Ford are telling me its a convoy delay.

Oh you’re convoy? I’m rail. Kinda hard to believe though when orders in other groups are being delivered to same geographic area…Alabama for me

All they tell me is "plant hold, not yet shippable". Any question I ask after that leads nowhere.

Beyond frustrating when we continue to see build weeks in March and even April get shipped @Ford Motor Company

FWIW, I called the CS# yesterday to see why such a delay. The nice lady took my info and said it was just waiting to be shipped(rail). I told her my dealership has received 2 Broncos that went in production in March whereas mine went into production 2/21 . She said she could understand the frustration but had no answer. She told me it currently shows my ETA as 4-25/5-1 but it could be earlier? Said it was not on any hold . As I was getting ready to end the call, she voluntarily gave me a certificate # to give to my dealer for price protection. She said they would know what to do with it

Way more helpful than anyone I’ve spoken to. One today told me she saw a delay but could not see why. Do you recall lady’s name?

Hard to believe I actually have it… best of luck to everyone still waiting!

just a quick edit… huge shout out to Maguires Ford in Hershey PA. From day one they said they would sell at MSRP and they stayed true to their word. No up selling and a quick painless transaction. If I lived closer, I’d use them for all my Ford needs. Reading all the horror stories on here really had me paranoid and these guys were great!

Congrats on your Bronco delivery, Matt. We're glad to hear that you had such a positive experience with Maguires Ford!

Took delivery 3/31/22

Great looking Bronco, Benjamin. Thanks for sharing!

Is there any information you could give us on those still waiting for Broncos to be shipped, several weeks later?

@Ford Motor Company why no movement on vehicles that have been built since Feb?

Just got off the phone with Ford CS, Convoy Delay, they are still showing an Est. delivery date of 4/29, but as most of us remaining in the build group will know this date only serves as another looming let down. The CS rep was super sweet and did give me a Certificate Number to give to the dealer.

Ford CS told me I am now in a Microchip Hold. Good GOD!

Obviously our ETA will change bc mine is 4/25 and Rail

I used to think ETA meant Estimated date to reach dealer, but I have been told by a few CS reps that it means the date when our build moves to a different status.
