Interesting update. My dealer just let me know Ford recently launched a new tracking system and my vehicle had a hold put on it "Delay - Plant - Quality FPLQ" back in September... Meanwhile Support just told me today there were no holds and Ford just keeps pushing my delivery window every two weeks. Anyone else have a similar hold?

My dealer checked my status on the new VinVIEW Tracker yesterday. My rig has "built and released" since August 30th. I was told for the 1st time that I'm on a "Plant Hold" with no other notes! This is a very disappointing turn of events after waiting 67 days for my Bronco to ship! I thought "released" means that the carrier just needs to pick it up for transport.

Yeah, sounds like the same deal... ugh! Our Broncos are probably parked next to each other in the Dirt Mountain lot Really just wish Ford could provide more info on what's actually going on so I can reset my expectations.

I know exactly what you both are experiencing. I was on a chip hold for 2 1/2 months and Ford basically denied it for the 1st 2 of them. I called once a week as well as chat once a week at the beginning of October. My complaints were noted and sent to logistics. Amazingly built completed on October 13 and delivered on November 4th. I believe if I hadn't complained mine would still be sitting and waiting.
It is unacceptable that people may take delivery of 2023's before your 2022's. Also, I thought orders didn't get vins and build weeks if Ford didn't have the parts. Those 2 things I focused on in my conversations. Hopefully they get your builds completed very soon.

I will tell you getting to see my Bronco Friday at the dealership and it be everything I imagined and more. Has helped a little with my anger towards Ford.

Your story is helpful and appreciate you sharing! My dealer sent Ford a note on Friday so hopefully I'll have some additional clarity next week but not holding my breath.

If anyone has a production photo of a 4 door cactus grey, sasquatch OBX with roof rack and modular bumber would greatly appreciate it being shared . Thank you

Yes, that site is great, but doesn't have my build type. A member here saw my photo production post and shared with me theirs. Very appreciative of all the great members that are on here.

That’s great! My production photo didn’t have my roof rack or brush guard either, so this is a very good representation.

Those are put on post production. So that is my build to a tee in production. So fortunate for the member who shared it. Ford screwes the pooch in every way. You would think they could get the photo right.

It finally arrived yesterday!!! I really hope I'm the last one from this build group because the last few months have been the toughest out of the almost 2.5 year wait but obviously well worth it!

Just got off with Ford chat again… mine is still sitting on ramp 51 in the MI rail yard. No railcar info and no updates since 8/118/24-8/29 was my original delivery estimate then it went to 9/4-9/10 but I don’t see that happening now either. And I never got the assembly line pic🥹 I

Hi when did you finally receive your bronco? I’ve been sitting in ramp 51 since 1/10 with no movement. My eta supposed to be Feb 1st which isn’t happening. Does it ever depart there in a timely manner…
