i got the same thing (ETA 5/13-19) from chat & the 800-334-4375 line (which is supposed to have more info). I have In Production date of 4/27 (my build week was 4/25) and i have not gotten any updates via tracker/email (but mods & tear tag populated before 4/30)

I'm hoping for the same, but at this point my expectations are low. They give us no reason to be excited

Here’s how my day has gone:

A. Talked with Ford chat, who told me I’m still in my “final phase of production” with the last status update being 4/25. “Estimated time frame is 5/7 to 5/13.”
2. I clarified it still wasn’t done being built yet. She said the next phase is “awaiting shipment.” So ya, not done.
D. I clarified what the timeframe of 5/7 to 5/13 that she gave me is for. She said “delivery.”
$. I thought, well I better line up some time off from work if that’s true, but how could that be even in the ballpark of realism if I’m in Houston and this Bronco still ain’t buttoned up yet. So I texted my dealer (who’s been great by the way). I made the mistake of asking if he could tell anything.
7. My man just texted me that the Bronco is on the train.
. None of my trackers have changed. No built email.

Now unless he means some train on the production line or that they took it to the train station Yellowstone-style, I’m thoroughly confused. I almost want to be hopeful but this is grueling. Is the plant just that bad at managing orders and information, or is it just super late to update websites? Who knows. Maybe the Bronco will show up one day out of the blue. Then again, maybe not.

Does Ford still send out production line photos or is that a thing of the past?

From what I understand they are sent to reservation holders sometime after shipment. You might get it in a day, or weeks, or never... hey - it's ford....

OH I sooo hope it's on a train!! Ask you dealer to give you the rail-car number.

Ok - it's bourbon time.

Not to rub it in, but my dealer called me this evening saying my bronco was delivered today earlier than expected. Tracker has been showing 5/15-5/21.

My wife and I went to the Bronco Off Roadeo in Texas on Saturday. If you haven’t done it book now. You won’t regret it. I never really had a desire to take trails or do some climbing but it was a lot of fun and impressive to see what the Bronco can do. Almost makes me want to start looking at where we could go that was easy. It also makes me rethink my decision of Wildtrak I’ve Badlands but it’s too late now.

SO! Over in my Bronco 6th Gen FB group, there was a dude who was working at the Ford plant and was able to look specifically at what was holding up a few people's specific Bronco's if they gave him their VIN numbers (I did not give mine, I didn't want to inundate him)- but a few were on hold just like some of ours are... here are a few responses from him:

-headlamps need to be verified, wind noise in your A pillar. Air temp sensor needs to be verified.

-air temp sensor and air noise in the a pillar

-headlamps need to be replaced, and it seems you also need an air sensor verified

He also said that they will be doing nothing but repairs the first 3 weeks in July.

So for whatever its worth....

From the 4/11 build week. Basically it’s a LED headlamp issue and quality issue with wind noise.

Sounds to me like they will be on hold until July.

Dear Lord I hope you’re misinterpreting that

Dear Lord I hope you’re misinterpreting that

So do I but it feels in line with the karma I put into the universe this year.

I told myself I didn’t deserve my bronco unless I finished a certification I need for a promotion. Well I passed part 1 but don’t expect to pass part 2 until about July….ugh…if it’s the case it’ll be a well deserved reward. Until then I will continue walking to work and studying.
