DELIVERY CHECKLIST (OCD Version) for Expectant Bronco Owners

[Cat]

here's a new one to add for you. Went to give the new truck a once-over and good waxing now that I've had it for a week. I expected to find rail dust and the like. I did not expect to find overspray from the paint booth:

That right there is Velocity Blue paint, coming right off into the claybar. appears to be on *top* of the clearcoat, so no big deal. But damn, never seen this on a brand spanking new car before.

Is that a paint curing issue? I know nothing about auto paint.

Here is a link to the OCD (Owners Delivery Checklist) that you can use/print-out when taking delivery of your new Bronco.

The items in this list, all reported by Bronco6g members, are mainly Quality & Manf issues that can be seen during your acceptance. Members have been providing this list to their Dealers to use during PDI, with favorable results.

Engine Performance/Failure, Airbag Recall, Ordering, Dealer Allotment issues or complaints are not on this list.

This is a Google Doc. Special thanks and shout-out to @gizmohd for creating it!

I can't wait to see the first video when somebody hands this to the dopey kid that delivers the car to the customer.

Thanks! What is the 4-digit number? Is it part of my original order number? The tracker has never worked for me once.

It's technically the Order Code on the top right of your Order Summary you signed from the dealer. That's why I put order number in "".

THANK YOU! That worked perfectly. I wish I would have known that sooner.

Apparently my Bronco was not built this week... still in production. Ouch!

One to add re: hard tops. Make sure all the parts of the soundproofing are attached to all the panels. When I picked up mine a month ago, the drivers side roof panel did not have any sound insulation. The insulation was present on the passenger side panel and the cab.

And I’m case you’re wondering, the dealer says it could take months to get in the replacement insulation panel.

Very awesome, thank you!

Probably more indicative that they're running the bodies through the paint booth too close to one another

It's definitely factory overspray after the vehicle has been cleared. Our Velocity Blue Bronco had it as well all over the hood, front fenders, part of the doors and even the windshield! It's almost impossible to see, but on ours you could feel it. The paint in the effected areas was super rough to the touch as was the windshield. Our dealer paid to have the entire vehicle professionally paint corrected. Paint is baby smooth now. I'll post videos/pics later when I get a chance of what we documented and sent to the dealer.

Try this thread for starters. Maybe PM that OP.

With this and the letter to Ford, @Cat is our Huckleberry!

I believe this should actually be:
200,000 for MOD to MIC, MOD to Soft, Dual to MIC, or Dual to Soft

Bookmarked! This list is money. Great point including the prices from Flood Ford for the extended warranty. I planned on printing and bringing a quote from them and asking my dealer to match it or I'll decline it.

Here are some pics and video of the factory overspray that we discovered on our Bronco, after having taken delivery. Without the perfect lighting, it's very difficult to see by just looking at the paint, but you can definitely feel it and hear it. Volume required when watching the video so you can hear the difference when I rub my finger across the paint.
