Pre-Delivery Self-QC Checklist

[MP85]

So what do you do if you do find issues at the dealership?

As long as the issue isn't that big, I'm still signing the damned papers. Waited long enough for my new toy. Its not like they have a backup ready to go from the lot.

Great thread.

I was compiling a list and stumbled upon this.

Thanks!

My hope was to send over the list for them to check prior to me arriving. If they find an issue, i would assume they would fix it before I come to sign papers and write a check for $60,000.
Then i plan to have my neighbor (who works for Ford at another dealership) double check it.

https:///forum/threads/bronco-team-engineering-confirms-7-0-quarts-for-2-7l-engine-oil-change-is-correct.29047/
Full tank of gas (we paid for it!)
Door bags
Strut on back window unglued from hardtop (why not drilled in??)
Check all three bolts in the fuse box for looseness

Fantastic list!! I took delivery Saturday AM and wish I had this to go over the truck. I'm going to print this and go over the truck as soon as the Mrs. gets back home. One item I can sadly say is remarkably valid on this list is:

Check seat stitching and ensure seats match

During our pre-purchase test drive, I noticed the driver's seat back did not match the rest of our interior. We have a good relationship with our dealer, so we went ahead and signed the paperwork, laughed at how pathetic the error, and proceeded to enjoy driving it. I'm sure we'll have a list for the dealer to address by the time they get the replacement seat back. Hey, anyone out there with Navy Pier interior rocking a Black Vinyl seat back???

This kind of QC has me rethinking my plan to try a F-150 for the next truck. I had told our dealer I wanted to spec their next Raptor allocation.

A couple questions/comments on this, Cat.

1- the 200,000 points were also MOD to Soft Top
2- How do we go about ensuring all of these points are activated to our Ford Pass Account? We are 7/14 reservation, 2/15 conversion, and had MOD top on our original order (changed to soft top in early July), so we should get all of those points.
3- What exactly is the User Appreciation Points and the Customer Satisfaction Funds?

Thanks!!

Points will be added to your account after you purchase, and after you sync Bronco with Ford Pass app. These are added by your dealer, not the Ford Pass folks. The list of Pass Points i compiled are points Bronco6g OPs have received. Check this link for more info: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...-reservation-holders.19679/page-4#post-948367

This is almost unbelievable. Just when I thought I might be going a little overboard on this checklist....nope. Not at all.

Nope. Not. At. All.

Mistakes happen, I get it. But this one really shocked me, and I don't quite understand how it could make it through. A lot of people had to have seen this and just ignored it along the way.

I visited my dealer GM today and mentioned you and the other OP who had a different back seat. Shook his head in disbelief.

I visited my Dealer GM today, and went over all the items I posted i posted in my list. Right off the bat he said, "Send it over to me and I will have my guys use it during PDI". He assured me "No ADM, I don't treat my customers that way".

Big shout-out to Frontier Ford in Anacortes, WA.

I mean, what about the guy whose entire tailgate interior was unpainted. Insane.

And now, two-tone MIC hardtops. More jaw-dropping every day. I am updating my list daily.
