I have herd that Ford is not taking orders from dealers now. I am concerned because I ordered mine last week and have not gotten an email confirmation. Does anyone have any information?
thank you

Only thing I know, Ford sucks ass with communication. They just want to keep pumping new models and trims out before they can even push peoples orders out. I’m sorry I don’t have any information to give you.

I called a dealership on Thursday checking to see if they had any Broncos in stock and the guy I was talking to said something about the next orders would be for 23. Since I already ordered one, I didn’t ask him to clarify if he meant an order placed now would probably get you a 23 or if he was saying you can’t order a 22 anymore. I honestly took it as they weren’t taking any 22 orders right now.

At least it wasn’t a “my dealer said”.

He is simply saying if you order now it will not be a 22. It will be delivered in 23, 24 or maybe 25, depending when Ford exits constrait-ville.

Also known as, I can't sell you that today, but let me show you what I can sell you (so I can get some commission money).

Wouldn't be a terrible idea to pause taking orders for things they can't build and deliver for the foreseeable future, and try to work their backlog down to a manageable size.

But no way is Ford doing that.

The reason you haven't gotten a confirmation is because Ford's communications to customers are... how can I put this delicately... "hit or miss". Took them several weeks to confirm my October reorder, and I know that my dealer sent the order in the day I gave it to him. Other people got their confirmations instantaneously. Some people don't get them at all. That's just how Ford rolls.

Did you get an order number? It Is on your dora. Check the backdoor

Enter your order # where the ******** is

You can also call Ford Monday to verify order

Ford site hasn't been working today. The tracker and that page don't work.

I read this somewhere too. But there was nothing to back it up. Sooooooo

Could be related to the bump in MSRP prices. Ford may want to pause orders for a few days

There will be plenty of abandoned orders if Ford can't get their act together, most people won't put up with this crap.

I've never used the tracker.

The backdoor always works for me but i know how to get in

You can call Ford if the website's don't work to confirm your orders, but, well.... call center hell.

Look, these are all the same problems we've had since bronco debuted, tons of threads on it, never changes.

Do a search, I'm out

Dealers are clueless and just want to survive

I asked my salesman if Ford had stopped taking orders for ‘22 Broncos, and he said that was correct. He said that my order had already gone through with Ford (I also received an order confirmation from Ford in January), so I didn’t ask for further clarification. I don’t know if it means that they aren’t taking any more orders for now, or if any orders taken will be for MY23. Or if they are waiting for things to play out before deciding if/when to start taking orders for MY22 again.
