4/18/22 Build Week Group.

[Liebd11]

Back on Monday of this week, I did a chat and was told that my Bronco was expected at my dealer on 4/30. My status changed from picked to on hold sometime over this past weekend.

With no status changes since then, I did the chat again yesterday and got the attached:

So, I’m hopeful that 4/30 delivery is true, but haven’t heard that update from my dealer and the lack of status changes, while not uncommon, have me questioning the validity.

I'm based in Wilmington down the road from you - I wonder if we're in the same situation because of shipping?

Dunno, they've told me twice (yesterday and the day before) that there is no indication of my vehicle being on any kind of hold.

What they gave me was an estimated ship date, even though I still don't see a status of "Built".

BTW, my dealer (Crossroads Ford) said it takes usually 3-6 weeks for them to receive a shipped vehicle, so I'd wager it's probably somewhat similar for you down in Wilmington.

Is getting a picture of you Bronco coming off the production line a thing of the past? lol. I haven't received an email from Ford in forever.

Folks from the 4/11 build week seem to just be receiving theirs today, so I would guess we might get ours sometime next week

NC here too... I am using a dealer in Hillsborough though. Was originally told it would be ready to pick up about a month after build, but not sure how this "on hold" status will impact though.
I have seen that previous orders for Down East - Fayetteville and even Dunn came through SC, while orders west of 95 come through WV/VA. Guess that will be our next hurdle to watch for after our hold statuses clear.

That's awesome and amazing. You might be the first in this thread to take delivery!! Most of the rest of us haven't even gotten a "Built" email yet!

Did you ever get that "Bulit" email and a baby picture? Where are you that you got it so fast?

I chatted with my dealership today. My bronco via the tracker shows "In production", but via the dealership portal it shows produced and pending transport. So, no chip hold and just awaiting a spot on a train. Estimated delivery is 5/19. (Blend was 4/21)

I feel like each of us gets a slightly different answer... I also had a 4/21 blend, and the tracker still says in production, although I know it has been produced. Ford customer service chat agents gave me an estimated ship date of 5/ 14. I asked them to clarify if that was a ship date or a delivery date and they did say it was a shipment date.

And there did not appear to be any hold on my order.

Someone earlier mentioned that the tube steps may get installed after the vehicle comes off the assembly line... I bet the brush guard is another one of those things that gets added after. Maybe? I have both...

I believe both of those are add ons in the second accessories building.

Called Customer Service and was told I’m on “some sort of hold — doesn’t appear to be a chip hold” and that I should call my dealer for more information. Blargh.

Ford Chat:
Monday 4/25 - "Your current order status is 'Produced' and is awaiting shipment at this time. At this time, I have an estimated delivery date of May-19-2022 "
Friday 4/29 - "The estimated date for production to be completed and set for shipping is 5/19/22.... we do not handle vehicle orders and deliveries, so I wouldn't be able to pull up your complete order (it's just the current status that we can see). Only your dealership can do that for you"

I guess I'll see it in June

EDIT - Dealer says ETA is still May 13th-19th.
