Below is just one example of the many others that I have found... How does Ford let something like this happen!?!?!?!

I've found tons of post of individuals who had the exact same or very similar builds as mine who had February/March build weeks that already have their Broncos (Congrats... no shade on the lucky ones) before the many of us who had January build weeks... there is no rhyme or reason?!?!?!

I'm certain nobody here really knows the answer (unless Ford is looking at these forums) but I'm curious and more that just a little frustrated

Cheers my fellow Bronco6Gers

No mystery here. January build dates ended up in Ice Mountain. They've been shipping after the install the modules missing post production.
Sure but shouldn’t it be first in first out… the later builds have the same modules but they can be built in a day???

Let it happen? My friend, Ford intentionally changed their terms and conditions for the reservation orders to specifically foment this result. This is exactly what Ford wanted. Driving orders to Ford's favored dealers above anyone else, reservations holders be damned!

It slows down production to shuffle cars back and forth from a parking lot compared to using those modules on a bronco that’s already on the assembly line. I know it’s not fair, but it’s the luck of the draw.

I think the ice mountain broncos have different modules. For example HVAC temp control and display are different from 2021 to 2022.

BUT hey bash ford while you are waiting in line as you have nothing else to do

I originally had a Jan build date but got pushed two times. Finally got one to stick and was built week of 3/14. I’d much rather have it that way than what others have said about getting built then scuttled to ice mt for who knows how long. If that were me, I’d be driving a Jeep by now.

Nope. Mines a 2022 and has been sitting there since January with no end in sight. No communication from Ford other than a microchip hold. Ford has the missing modules now or else the line wouldn’t be running. It seems like at least some of the ice mountain vehicles are actually being run back through the production line which would explain why it’s taking so long. Ford doesn’t want to give up an already scheduled spot on the line to us ice mountain refugees.
