$2500 for cancelling? - Ford doesn't communicate well again!

[dingle87]

Looks like he canceled his order, so should qualify for $2,500 certificate from Ford.

I'm thinking the hangup for OP, is this part: "So I found an abandoned order,..."

I thought it was specified that it had to be dealer stock. Abandoned orders aren't dealer stock. Yes, I realize typing this that many some people have posted on this forum where dealers have accepted the $2500 or even the private offers towards abandoned orders OR dealer stock. At this point, I'm thinking it comes down to individual dealers and how they do business vs what mothership Ford is stating in PDFs.

I think ultimately, the $2,500 isn’t even populating. Do the certificate is not available. Mine has also not populated yet. When I reached out to Granger about my certificate, they said that they are having issues getting people certificates to populate. They currently have a finance guy and another individual trying to work the issue.

OP is also a Granger reservation.

Even if it does populate, I'm not sure he'll get it, due to the "buying an abandoned order" situation. Who knows. Good luck to OP though.

No, you have to have Wildtrak, SAS, MIC or LUX to be eligible for he $2500

This is not true. I have a Badland with MIC, LUX and if I would have changed I would get the $25K. I don't understand why you would change.
This is the new US auto model. Place an order, wait , and hope it might get built. Yall better like eating bananas, lots of bananas.

What is not true? You have SAS & LUX, so you quality.

What I said: If A, B, C OR D
What you said I said: If A AND (B, C OR D)

OK, if you are going to start using the new math, I'm done. Is the answer E??

I don't know, I'm not confused!!

I don't have SAS.

@Alpha1_Silverback and/or @FordVideoGuy can either of you confirm that if one was to cancel their current Bronco order and collect the $2500 modification/cancelation rebate can that rebate then be applied to a retail order (abandoned or otherwise) or is it strictly limited to dealer stock orders only?

In OP's scenario, it appears that he tried to use his own modification/cancelation rebate and apply it to a retail Bronco his son ordered and walked away from. Maybe it didn't work because of this fine print detail?

Clarification is definitely needed before the March 7th deadline.

Yes, you can cancel your order and use the $2500 on the purchase of an in stock Bronco. A Bronco that someone turns down would become a stock unit. The dealer needs to enter your intention into COVP to receive the $2500.

What if we canceled our order, our account that we can see on the Ford website shows we canceled our order after Ford’s letter and our $2500 certificate is not showing up. How do we get our $2500 to apply it?

Which dealer needs to enter the intention? If the dealer that canceled our order failed to enter the intention, can that be fixed?

The dealer the order was with needs to enter your intention. At least that is what we noticed.

For those of you that have been able to buy one off the lot using certs on Smart Vincent, what is the secret?! Thanks in advance!

Secret is finding a good dealer. I have a WT on order that I'm not changing. I had found a similar WT with High pkg & MIC near Detroit. When I asked the salesperson I was talking with about what I needed to do for the order cancellation Private Offer, he replied back to let me know there was already a Private Offer for $2500 in my name. This was before I cancelled the WT order. So I'm not sure how or when those are generated.

For my Badlands that cam in earlier this month, the dealer rep at that dealership told me that he had a more generic offer for $2500 off for cancelling a Bronco order but that it wouldn't apply to my Badlands since it was an ordered vehicle.

OP was so aggressive and grumpy and then…just like that…a quick “I was wrong” with no apology for being unnecessarily irate.

It gets a little…err…toxic on here sometimes, doesn’t it?

EDIT: Completely misread this thread before posting that @TrailDust

Have you seen this published or been able to redeem the $2,500 on an abandoned unit? I believe you, just haven't seen anything from my rep yet to clarify if "stock" means any unit on the ground or just blue stickers.

The key words or phrase is not or.

It is this part:

Your order has any of these options—Molded-In Color Hardtop, Sasquatch Package, or Lux Package—and you remove all of them from your current vehicle order​

The non-Wildtrak cannot have SAS, MIC, or Lux in the build to qualify. And it took 2 weeks from my changing it to get on the production list. My dealer told me they would start the paperwork for the certificate right after I changed.
