Almost like they're assembled by humans during a pandemic that's caused massive labor issues eh?
No not at all. Unless they were wearing masks over their eyes........
Me too.Bailed on the headliner. Why have a washout BD with carpet padding on the roof?
I'm management in a production plant. It isn't sympathy, but a fact, that fallout from covid has caused us labor shortages and turnover, resulting in more screw ups and lower output. Despite paying very well, my crew has been understaffed the entire time and the new people brought in are always less effective.
Still not an excuse to have so many quality issues. My $25k ford maverick was without any of those issues and looks even after 9k still flawless.
Then I don't doubt you for bit then that's what you're experiencing at your facility. Is that what is happening at MAP though? I honestly thing just a poorly built bronco makes it out of the plant on occasion, and that it's not something that happens frequently.
Independent of the other issues, I am wondering if the inner sides of the top issue is something exceptional or it is the way it looks with all the hard tops.
I assume you’re no longer buying this POS Bronco.My Bronco arrived finally after 2 years waiting. I have some back and forth regarding my financing, so I can't take delivery until tomorrow. I just went out to look at it and it was pretty disappointing. Some journalists praised the Outerbanks as "mini G-Wagon" or "alternative to Defender". Are they serious? The Quality of this truck is below any other vehicle I have ever owned. Ford Quality control must be either sleeping all day or they are not existing.
-First thing I noticed was that one of the door trims was completely out of place, I had to adjust and push it in place.
-The trim above the front bumper is not aligned with the rest of the body. I thought that is only with mine but I went around and all the Broncos on the lot had this misalignment. Some more, some less.
- On the same trim, there is scratch about 1.5 inch long (see picture).
- The hard top is a joke. Look at the pictures and look how it looks from inside. I don't know what they were smoking as they decided to build it the way they did. I know they had to come up with a quick solution to clean the mess from the first generation but what the heck is that?? Have the decency to paint it or cover it with something.
-What is this welding thing on the paint?
- In the interior portion there were all sort of scratches and dirt, didn't have the desire to look deeper since it was not detailed yet. Might be different after detailing.
The truck was not detailed yet and I am sure after detailing I will find more stuff once I take the time to look more in detail.
This is not the 20K dollar Maverick. This is a Bronco which has almost the same price as the Mercedes GLE. I guess it is the way it is and I hope @Ford Motor Company listens and will do something about it. Expect more from a truck which costs over 55k dollars.
Fair enough, I can't say for a fact that MAP is having those issues. I can only presume, based on what I'm seeing myself and what I hear from the other businesses I interact with.
Mine is a two door, but looks nothing like that.
COVID excuses are out the door for me across the board, it's been two years and the renamed flu is well past gone, its like when you see people still wearing masks. I just smh
You are looking closer than I would but I can understand your concerns. If you want to kick it back and try for another, you can do so, but the reality is that beggars can't be choosers.
As we all know, there is no kick it back here, so I am going for it and see how I am liking it. If we don't like it, we will sell it.
