Order Conversion Process

CURRENT ORDER HOLDERS (Converted in Ford's Ordering System)

• Your dealer will start scheduling order consultations with all existing order holders to finalize/submit, based on reservation timestamp order.
• Beginning 10/13, dealers can start updating/confirming orders in Ford’s ordering system with customer consent.
• You need to agree to pricing with your dealer at the time of order entry with a signed purchase agreement and any required deposit.

RESERVATION HOLDERS (Unconverted)

• For 2022 model year, existing reservation holders who have not yet converted their order can use the Ford.com Online Ordering tool.
• Dealers have been asked to reach out to customers to confirm order receipt and pricing.

Order conversion process flow and FAQ:

Status	Action
I never placed a reservation/order for MY21. (New customer)	Reach out directly to your dealer to express interest in buying a Bronco and discuss options and timing. Bronco SUVs equipped with a hardtop will continue to be limited based on existing demand, but there may be opportunities to get a Bronco equipped with a soft top sooner. You may also go onto Ford.com to send your dealer your information to have them reach out to you to discuss.
I placed a reservation for MY21 but never converted it to an order. (Unconverted)	You will need to convert to an order for MY22 with your dealer. You will not lose your timestamp.
I placed an order for MY21, was not scheduled for production, and don’t want to make any changes. (Converted)	You will need to confirm your order to MY22 with your dealer to make it eligible for scheduling. You will not lose your timestamp.
I placed an order for MY21, was not scheduled for production, and want to make changes. (Converted)	You will need to update and confirm your order to MY22 with your dealer and can make changes at that time. You will not lose your timestamp.

Important Note:

Because of the new features for 2022 model year, everyone without a vehicle identification number (VIN) on October 13, 2021 will need to update/confirm their MY22 order. Orders are being converted from MY21 to MY22 within Ford’s ordering system, but still require updates/confirmation to be eligible for scheduling. This process will be handled through your dealer.

Price Protection

All customers with a reservation/order placed by 3/19/21 will receive price protection based on what your order was as of 10/1/21. EXAMPLE: If customer has a 4-door Badlands on order or reserved, the customer will receive a certificate for $825 (4-door Badlands increase from ‘21-’22).

If you switch your trim, you can apply your price protection to the trim you purchase in MY22 (except for special edition vehicles). EXAMPLE: You had a Badlands on order or reserved 10/1/21 but take delivery of a Big Bend in '22. You will still receive a price protection certificate for a Badlands.

What are the 22MY MSRP price protection amounts by series for Bronco 2- and 4-door?

	Bronco 2-door	Bronco 4-door
Base	$800	$250
Big Bend	$400	$250
Black Diamond	$975	$825
Outer Banks	$400	$250
Wildtrak	$800	$695
Badlands	$975	$825

These numbers represent the difference in cost between a MY21 Bronco and outfitting it to the exact same specs for MY22. EXAMPLE: A customer reserved or ordered a 4-door Wildtrak with hard top in MY21. In MY22, it costs $695 more to purchase the same build. A price-protected customer will receive a certificate for $695.

Since this chart for price protection is broken down by series and doors, you could infer there won’t be pricing increases on options and features. And like MY21, X-plan pricing will not be available for the MY22 Bronco.
