January 2022 Orders!

fordgirl2003

Well talk about craziness this morning! I received a scheduled build date of July 24th today but it's for my 2nd order (Placed April 24, 2023)! My orginal Jan 2022 order was at a priority 2 and it's still unscheduled clean according to chat.

Short version, I'm finally getting my Bronco!!

Long version, my original order has to be tied up due to dealer allocations. I'll let it ride until it balances out or if it gets built, I'll take it.

Great to hear you're finally getting one scheduled!!

Finally! Congrats!

Welp, still no update on the explorer st I ordered so decided to place another big bend order as close to the original one ford canceled. See if I have better luck this time.

Not sure what options you are looking at on the ST, but a local dealer has 12 ST's listed in their inventory. They ship all over the country and have some of the instock units discounted.

Nothing overly special on the st. Just not a combo I've seen on the ground anywhere. Like the bronco. 2.3, 7 speed, SAS, roof rack, trailer hitch, aux switches, keypad. Not an overly complicated order. I have found one similar to it just now tow package. Which I don't guess is a bad thing if I put an aftermarket rear bumper on it.

487 days from requesting to receiving.

Have now been "In Production" for a month. My dealer has no additional information. It would be nice for Ford to give an honest answer about what the holdup is for me and the other folks in the same boat.

Dang. We went into production on 4/24 to built on 5/3 (2023).

If it is taking that long to go from in production to built there could be a quality issue they are addressing. I have heard they are holding on to them for an extra few days to give them all a test drive. If they uncovered something that could explain it. Mine went into production on 6/13. Hoping to get a built notification soon.

I have finally moved to "Built" status! Hopefully not much longer!

It arrived at about two weeks for ours after we got the shipped notice.

Just thought I'd drop in and give a no update - update, ha! My original Jan 22 order is still unscheduled. Still at a priority 2 though, so i guess there's still a slim chance it could get scheduled. Just a few more scheduling runs and we'll know one way or the other. Not sure when '22 will get balanced out but i'm fully expecting in the next couple months?

My April 23 order is less than a month away from being built, it feels like it's getting real now but I'm not getting too excited, not until the keys are in my hand and she's mine - lol!

So, a little dirty with only 513 miles on the odometer.
Note that I got the door windows tinted last week.
Also the owner of the business (I think) that did the tint said that he ordered a Bronco six days before we did from the same dealership, and he was still waiting on a build date.

I am absolutely gutted! My VIN came up hot for the stop order due to the seat belt recall. If it was built one day later it would have been outside of the build window. Now there is a stop sale on the problem batch, so I apparently cannot take delivery until it is fixed. My Bronco is in "Built" status and apparently released for shipment since 6/20, but now I have to wait until Q4 when they have the parts available? I don't know if it is even worth waiting for at this point.

Ouch, that one would hurt. Sorry you're going through this. Hard to believe it will take that long to remedy the issue.

I feel your pain. My Bronco was delivered to my dealer over the weekend after nearly 1.5 years. I went to the dealership yesterday and was able to look at it. But because of the seat belt recall, look is all I can do. I can't even test drive it. Unbelievable...

That is definitely rough. I don't know which is worse, but I think I would at least like to be in your situation instead of the purgatory of the "Forever Tomorrow Land" at some unknown parking lot in Michigan. Although, then I heard a horror story yesterday about a recall Bronco stuck on a lot that had over 300 miles on, several iPhones tied to the Bluetooth, and a bunch of trash in the glovebox once it was finally delivered. I don't know how you prevent other people driving your vehicle, but if you do see a bunch of miles on it, I would make them discount it, especially since the seatbelt recall is supposed to prevent it from moving at all. Maybe your dealer can help put the pressure on to get the part since they have more incentive to close the sale. I can't force mine to be put on a railcar!

I know. I feel your pain. It took 7 weeks from in production to ship. My dealer is fine... nothing they can do. I contacted Ford today. They have a fix and are working with suppliers to resolve - expected 4th quarter of this year. I don't expect there will be any miles on the Bronco. There are none now. Nobody can test drive or there is a $26K fine (?) per violation. Same with selling me the car. LOL.
