Price Protection PGM#38446

[Rbronco]

Sorry if this posted somewhere but I need a little help with the price protection.

I have the $825 discount and my dealer can see it. The $1750 one is my issue. My dealer said (I know ) they can’t apply it and Ford will have to add it to my order. I called Ford they told me the dealer has to add it. If they don’t know how they need to call their rep. I called my dealer back and they said they would add it but can’t.

Does anyone know what the dealer or Ford needs to do to add it on?

Below is the discount codes posted by another member but I can’t find this info.

• PGM#38406 - This program was created specifically for early reservation holders to protect the from the 2022MY Price Increases. This program is only valid for the 2022MY, but there will be an updated 2023MY program at some point in the future for those who gets pushed or are holding out until 2023.
• PGM#38446 - This program is effectively an addendum to the PGM#38406 to protect order holders from the 2022.5MY Price Increases. This program is only valid for the 2022MY.

Did you change your order after March 11th, 2022? If so, what did you change?

I haven’t change anything in 22. I change to a soft top in 21 when they announced the issues with hardtop. Then changed back 2 days later. I haven’t change anything since then. Just reordered the Same Bronco when the 22 order banks opened.
The Ford rep on the phone said I qualify for the $1750

You do not qualify for PGM#38446 since you didn't change anything after March 11th. Instead you qualify for Retail Price Protection.

ok. So I have to eat 22.5 price change because I didn’t change anything. That sucks. I thought everyone that ordered before the March 11 deadline got the 21 pricing. So much for price protection. Thanks for the info. At least it will be here in a few weeks.

No. You qualify for Retail Price Protection. You are protected from the 2022.5MY price increases via Retail Price Protection.

Since I know you read my post ...

ok. So I should have the extra 1750. Do you know what the dealer or Ford needs to do to apply it.

some dealers cut the price ahead of time and some reimburse you after the 30-45 days. I think with Ford auditing there is no way they can screw it out of you but I would try to get something in writing.

The 22.5 price protection is convoluted and dumb system that was half heartedly thought out. It sucks we have to finance the money or pay upfront and pay taxes on it and we get reimbursed instead of chopping the price off like the first price protection.

Thanks. Good to know people are getting reimbursed. Is that coming from Ford or the dealership?

Ford reimburses the dealer then the dealer sends the purchaser a check I believe, even SAC is trying to figure it out ATM but I believe I'll have to get reimbursed after the sale.

While talking with Ford Customer service, I was given a certificate number for my price protection. I was informed that I needed to send it to the dealer, which I promptly did. It is my understanding that the price protection certificate will be used when the dealer is finalizing pricing (but I've been wrong before). I was also told that my certificate expires in Dec 2022. Which I followed with, "what if I don't have my Bronco by then?"... and the response was, "oh, I'm sure you'll have it by then". Let's just say I have little faith in that.

Following,
I picked up my day one order from SAC a couple weeks ago. I received the $825 reimbursement today. When I called the Ford direct hotline they were useless. SAC has been great to deal with and I am sure they will follow through if we qualify for the other distribution. I think Ford just makes things really hard, so @StephensAutoCenter has their work cut out for them even after the sale. Which IMHO is BS.

Ford really hasn’t communicated this well to anyone. Come to think of it, pretty much bad communication for them the entire time.
