Sadly, I think you'll have to endure the hold/call-back process. Just place it on speakerphone and go about doing something else. I would definitely formalize the stop transfer request. With your luck, your original dealer will have allocation, but your transfer will go through where you have to wait in purgatory for another dealer's allocation.Threw in the towel today....I think. Another 53 min on hold and the call dropped. Called my current dealer and placed an order, Ford isn't going to come through on this imo. Now, if I can't get a hold of anyone on the bronco hot line, how do I tell them I no longer want the reservation transfer lol?
I'm afraid if my current dealer has any 22' allocations at all, if I don't order, I'll for sure never get one. Good luck to anyone else still hanging in there.
It's frustrating for sure. I threw in the towel as I don't believe any converted orders are being transferred with any regularity despite Levine claiming that you can.
My advice is to play the game that Ford wants. Find those large dealers with plenty of allocation and place a new order. Most won't bother with deposits and will be selling at MSRP. Having a retail order gives them the 10-19 priority code and they can order whatever option the customer wants. Whereas if they submit dealer stock orders to supplement their orders to meet their allocation quota, those orders are limited in options (Base, BB, OBX - all standard/mid; 2.3L; softies) and are given a PC of 80. The dealership wants a retail order in the banks even if the person doesn't follow through with the order.
Cast as many lines as you can manage. The more lines in the water increases the likelihood of catching a fish.
