No Build Date Notifications?

[RVABronco]

My dealer sent out a "hey look at our inventory of cars coming to the lot" as a preview to bronco order holders. (In case I wanted to get another car while I waited?). I responded letting them know in feb I had celebrated putting down my deposit, and was planning a "two year since reserving" party for this summer. They nicely responded that I shouldn't need the party as I had a build date week of April 25th; which if true is freaking amazing.

I have received zero notice from Ford of this, and when i pull up the backdoor reservation tracker it still shows me as not yet scheduled for production. Anyone had anything similar? Trying to figure out why I am not getting notified.

I had the same thing last Thursday. I got a text from my dealer with the same date but nothing from Ford.

I'm sorry dude. Bummer on the dealership ruining your party. Bunch of a-holes.

Is there nothing those blood-sucking monsters won't due to ruin this process for us?

Jokes aside,

I wonder if the build emails don’t come out till the week before?

I called my dealer on March 7 to drop the tow package regretfully for one less restraint, and they said it couldn't be changed because I have a build date of 4/27. Weird that Neither Ford or them notified me.

I received my email from Ford November 2021 for a build date in January and now I wait while my Bronco sits on a parking lot and has for a six weeks now.

Had build of 3/28, bumper to 4/11, pushed back up to 4/4.
0 emails from ford no change on Ford site either, only got info thought dealership. From what I have seen on this forum this is normal. Most people aren't getting in info from Ford till under a month out

Thanks much for the number. I just called. they asked for the VIN and then told me it is on hold at the factory waiting for a chip. they said the estimated delivery date is 5/12/2022, which is the date the used to show on the pizza tracker.

Dealers have access to what I'd call a "back back" door system that lets them see build dates before they are communicated to the customer. My build date was the exact same. This system is so ahead of what's communicated to the customer that someone in my build week thread of 3/28 already has a build date for that week and build number from their dealer when that isn't even shared till the week before typically

I have gotten the exact same information from my dealer. Same dates! Hopefully that will hold.

I have never gotten any emails from Ford, except the first one confirming the order.

Aside from an order confirmation email I have received zero communication (from Ford or the dealership) regarding the status.

If it wasn't for the phone line and the 'backdoor tracker', I would not have had any indication that I was assigned a VIN and then later a build week for April.

I've never received any Ford comms beyond the "order confirmed" email. All other info has come from my dealer.

Note: I'm a walk-in, not a reservation holder. That appears to matter.
