Bronco Limbo Continues..... PLANT HOLD

[Derbystud]

Daaang... thats ridiculous. Was it worth the wait and the frustration? I'm starting to get a really bad taste in my mouth with Ford and the Bronco.

Yeah it was. I love it.

I have an order date of 7/21/2020 of Badlands 4 door, 2.7L, Hard top, Sasquatch, HD modular bumper, High Package, in Eruption Green. It was built on 4/13/2023 with estimated delivery date of 05/03-05/09, the date today is 05/10. My order has not gone to shipped status and according to FMC customer service it is showing that it was built 05/13 and briefly went to awaiting shipment then back to plant on "Plant Hold" the same day and had been since that date. They say they have no information to give me other than "Plant Hold is vague". They did tell me if it was a chip issue it would say "Chip Hold". The dealership has no further information than I was able to get from Ford. I am curious if anyone else has been put into this limbo called "Plant Hold" currently or in the past. If you are currently having the same issue I'm curious if we have any of the same options on our builds.
Thanks

Went into production 4/11. Same build but for the mod bumper. No updates. Have not been told by either marketing, or my dealer, that it’s on any kind of a hold, however.

Well if it makes you feel better or worse I’ve had one built since 3/16 but it’s still “waiting on transport”

In a weird way it does... misery loves company

When mine had a status of built, the date was there but I also didn't have the check mark (green dot). After 5 weeks the check mark finally showed up and then the status changed to shipped.

Took a month after that to arrive at the dealer and the shipping status was never really all that accurate.

I'm miserable too...
Mine has been 'built' since 3/26 and 'awaiting shipping' ever since. ETA still shows as 4/15. No updates on my Ford tracker since 3/26 either. Neither Ford chat nor dealer can give me any info.
Meanwhile, 50+ Broncos have shown up at my dealer, all built after mine.
I keep thinking 'maybe it will ship THIS week'?
I was thrilled when it finally got scheduled and built! Now I just drink a lot.
993 days and counting.... ugh.

Man... "built" even longer ago than mine... Its frustrating that a company like Ford can not answer any questions as to what is the hold up while they keep pumping out broncos daily with ours are just sitting on the sideline.. especially to pre-order customers... remember that e mail when they said they would get pre-orders done before dealer stock lol!? Here's to your wait and may it end really F*ckn soon !

Thanks! There are a bunch of others in the same situation, that helps a little. The Dirt Mountain folks had it even worse! I just wish Ford would give me an update. anything. They told me there are no holds, it's just awaiting shipping..... well, ship the damn thing!

In production since the 8th of March. Secondary status built since the 9th. Just put it on a train please

2/24 blend, all modules populated 2/25, “in production” bubble on tracker 2/27……and nothing since.
Next week will be 3 damn months since blend date. Ford marketing says it was “released from production” on 29 Apr, but nothing changed in the tracker and dealer no help. This is getting ridiculous...

 

[bonewizzo]

Mine didn't move from "In Production - Produced; Pending Update" on 2/28/2023 to "Built" until today...Hope your limbo is much, much shorter.

So yours finally shows “built”!? I’ve been watching yours as it’s been the closest date to mine that I’ve seen on here. Still nothing on mine. Next week will be 3 months since blend….

its almost like if you are put out of line of normal, you get stuck in the back of the lot until they unbury it for shipping. I got lucky and only spent 22 days in limbo with convoy. It just angered me more since it only had to go 6 hours away. It shipped and delivered in the same day, thought for sure the truck would get lost.

Meanwhile other orders are managing to be submitted and fulfilled in the same time frame, that is RIDICULOUS! Its like they lost your bronco and won't figure it out until they switch over to MY 24. Sure would be nice if Ford customer service could actually come up with some answers for a lil assurance you didn't slip through the cracks... good luck man!
