Sounds intelligent to me. Id rather someone else deal with the dead battery and old gas that's been sitting in the lines. 6 months is pushing it for non stabilized gas, beyond my range of comfortable.
That's where I have landed Jeff. The thrill is gone, and the bloom is off the Bronco rose for me. I have no idea when I'll even get a sniff of a build date, so it just doesn't matter anymore. I'm riding this shit out until July, and if I don't hear any positive remarks from Ford (I mean anything, not just about mine) I'm probably going to move on. Life's just to short to worry about a damn new vehicle.
No sir, not built. When Ford changed the allocatin formula I was screwed, blued, and tatooed. Too many ordered, and too few allocations put me way out there.
Yeah, I found it all, Joseph, and printed some pages. I figure the first thing I'll do is pop the hood and check the date. Thx for your work!@Headsong , hope Ford finally delivers for you soon -
- when they deliver it, maybe share a photo of the engine label - (see photos in 2.7L Blown Engine Tracking thread)
- we'll be able to tell if your engine build-date is worrisome -
- or tell if your engine was replaced already -
- and to find the thread easily, if you click FORUMS in the top menu, it seems the Admins made the Tracking thread a 'Sticky' under Issues, Repairs, Warranty, TSB, Recalls - unbeknownst to me -
- in the engine tracking we have 22 of the Julian build-dates so far, and 20 of them are in this worrisome '2-month Containment' range below - currently 159 thru 224 - still w a 25-day 'clear gap' in the middle -
No, once you get the "built ' notification, it's done. Then it sits in a different lot waiting for shipment.. After that.....?
Thanks, that helps….but does a “shipped” email mean shipped or maybe just sitting MAP adjacent I wonder?
Have you run your VIN through United Road? Maybe it's sitting at the rail yard. My dealer wouldn't give me the car either but I correctly guessed it was on another member's car and tracked it all the way to the rail yard.
Don’t know how, but will search function that - sounds like a job for my IT Dept and she’s tired these days from her job as a nurse on a COVID unit.
If you want to PM me your VIN I'll run it, saves some hassle getting an account set up.
He's the master of not knowing where our rigs are! lol
Harsh let down indeed. It's probably a QC issue, so be glad they caught whatever they caught. Not to mention that be super thrilled that you were 6 months from order to delivery. I waited easily over a year and 6 months for a Base auto 2.3l. Others are still waiting that were day one orders.I'm so discouraged. It's 6 month birthday was Sunday. Now more delay.
