I'm sorry for your luck, this sucks! Hope that you get an agreeable solution. I am also down to rock this boat if we need to on some mofo's.

This is really bad. Shouldn't have happened to anyone. @Ford Motor Company must take notice. They should enforce some minimum criteria of ethics and acceptable business practices for dealers. After all there is this blue oval logo hung at every place.
True, that for the manufacturer, their main customer is the dealership, who order stock and then resell the product. But this sales model now is far and beyond of any fairness..

This is from my signed agreement. $2500 deposit.

Wow, so if you're on vacation and it comes in, they can sell it...but they can't tell you when it will arrive....

I'm going on a cruise in late Feb, if mine came in that monday, I wouldn't be back until the following monday. If they sold it out from under me, even with that verbiage, I'd be pretty upset...I have yet to see what my agreement will include but I'll be looking for something like that now so that I can make sure it is amended to at least 7 days.

Welp, as expected no call and no answer when I call.

You may not be the litigious type but it sounds like they are hoping like hell you give up and go away. As others have mentioned it sounds like it's time to involve a lawyer. Especially if they haven't refunded your deposit.

Is there another phone # you can use to call them, in case since they have you flagged?

Agreed. If you don't do anything about it, you're just giving them the green light to do it to someone else.

Honestly, I don't know how you do it. I would be over there so fast and raise hell until I get to the bottom of it or wear a hidden camera to expose them.

I still say to park your backside in the dealership and stare at them until they see you. If you are quiet like, you can observe and try to figure out who the "BIG" wigs are. Face to face them, so that you can see them squirm.

Why aren't you sitting in the dealership instead of waiting for a call?

Yeah, that's a pretty narrow window. If the OP had the same agreement, though, he should be good, because he attempted to get it the same day as he was notified, trying to reach them via multiple methods.
He should be good if that were the case like he showed up after contact but apparently they sold it a week before telling him it arrived

I love the posts of "well you waited too long after the dealer emailed you"

Is there some unwritten rule where a deposit on a vehicle reservation is null and void if you wait too long? (like the 5 second rule, but with deposits/down payments)
My dealer told me yesterday that they can sell the car after nine days.

There are likely no TV or radio stations, or newspapers that would take on this story...dealers buy ad space and air time from these same stations/newspapers. They won't risk losing that revenue stream, even if it's 1 dealer.
Yep, much better off contacting a YouTube channel on broncos or “call yaa” etc and it’ll be seen
