Wouldnt have helped. they have no authority to force anything on the dealer. I even asked assume they say no, and i come back to you, will you help with my transfer and the answer was no. working with dealer is the only options.

I'd be nice if Ford could reduce the allocation for these types of dealers, or reduce the Hold Back payments. It's probably the only lever of control they have.
This seems like something Ford Corporate should and would help sort out. It's outside of your control they were bought out . I'd start there ...see where it gets you. Maybe the tweet Levine strategy people have had some luck with. This seems like one that should work out . Good luck , hope for the best for you .

Ford corporate absolutely has leverage over their dealers if they really want to push the issue. The dealers represent the brand and Ford could easily cut future allocations, or push future allocations back to the end of the line. A while back someone posted a photo of a $10,000 mark up of a Mach e to Mike Levineās (ford North America comm director) Instagram and within 24 hours it was gone.
So frustrating.
On my end, Mike Levine is still trying to help. But so far really no substantive progress. He said I might hear from the dealer last week but that hasn't happened.
Continuing to try...

Iāve been to bell ford about 8-9 years ago for a Ford Fiesta, they bait and switched me after confirming details on the phone. They werenāt good before they were bought out either
I bought a truck there during COVID and maybe I just got lucky, the sales person I had (David, I don't think he works there anymore) was this old but nice dude, gave me a good deal, and I was out of there quick. I figured they'd have some honor and integrity even after the sale, but after talking to the new owner I can see "the fish stinks from the head down"

Calling on the B6G community for help... I have been trying to get attention of Mike Levine and Ford on Twitter for help without luck. Can you help retweet my post to get some visibility? Link for my tweet below.
