No, the insurance company does that. Once they pay a claim on the vehicle they claim the wreck as salvage and typically auction it off. In this case since the vehicle was never titled it will likely never be eligible for a title (in the US anyway), but sold "whole for parts" on a bill of sale. I know used car dealers that buy lots of these, junkyards too

Gentlemen, Jeff is a friend of mine, and he has been waiting for seven (7) months for clarity on a vehicle that was BUILT in July 2021... within the first 30 days of Bronco production.
Although many others here have been waiting for a while, too, very few cases come anywhere close to the level of BS that Jeff has dealt with on this particular vehicle.
Please let the man vent a little and leave the nonconstructive commentary unsaid. Thanks for your consideration.

I believe they're referring the the MSO/MCO (manufacturers statement/certificate of origin). It's the actual title to the vehicle. Not that certificate of title bs. That makes you think you actually own your vehicle. It's the title.
Hilarious comment coming from someone who had to wait a whole 3 weeks for their Bronco to be delivered. Must have really been stressed, which is why you feel the need to be so rude to others who you cannot relate to.

Yeah, we only know what we know. If you don't know about Dirt Mtn, you think 3 week wait is hideous. Which is why we need to remember to be kind to everyone, they're all carrying shit that we don't know.....Hilarious comment coming from someone who had to wait a whole 3 weeks for their Bronco to be delivered.

Yeah manā¦ and i didnt bust his chops every day since my reservation date in July 2020 like 95% of people. Over the last 2 years Ive built a great relationship w my dealerā¦ i get proactive texts, asked if i want to be in consideration for limited editions etc. i havent taken him up on those, but i do have a 2door basemansquatch on orderā¦ cant wait for the manual. All im saying is a little empathy goes a long way. Peace and love.Hilarious comment coming from someone who had to wait a whole 3 weeks for their Bronco to be delivered.

Ah, Greg, who knew it would come to this? Wow. Just wow.
That doesn't make much sense... Ford will pretty much repaint a whole vehicle or fix whatever if its damaged in transit... unless it was absolutely trashed.... like frame damage reconstructed title damaged. Also if the dealer didn't have the title its not really theirs... if they did, Ford couldn't go and sell it without a title, and if they somehow did, the dealership would have legal recourse... I think there is a lot you aren't being told by someone. This is just based off my experience with Ford and working for a Ford dealership in the sales department for a while. I could be totally wrong. You should run a carfax on the VIN number see if/when it was titled and registered... my .02
Wouldn't shock me if the dealership fired that bitch off to auction in the Fall to make some $$$... Still lots of questions and of course I'm speculating (quite a bit)... but it would be more probable than the damage and sale scenario.
Probably not, probably a very small percentage actually, gas is by far the largest volume seller for both brands.
Would have to be very badly damaged. Most times the transport company will pay to have it repaired for the dealership.
Not sure what your relationship with your dealer has to do with anything being discussed in this thread but congratulations.
I'm kind of thinking you don't know what empathy means. Because the only one lacking it in this thread is the individual who called the OP entitled. Practice what you preach.
