Below are the key dates for Bronco ordering and production. Note that I am going to try my best to stick with confirmed dates that have either been communicated to dealers or to the public. You may find conflicting information online from the rumor mill that may (or may not) be accurate. Note these dates will be focused on retail order banks only, occasionally fleet orders and stock orders have different dates.

Mine just went into production a week earlier than expected. So another 1-2 months before I see it in person?

It depends on where you live and how it is transported. I live in Seattle and mine was transported via rail. It took 1 month and 4 days from build to delivery. I hope this gives some context. Congratulations for going into production!

Yeah but...... I take it from the threads here this means nothing except there is an entry in their computer with your name attached. This is not a commitment that they will schedule and/or build it.

"you may be on a waiting list depending On the dealer getting sufficient allocations to fulfill your spot on the list"

Worse part? I got the same email yesterday for mine... :(

THERE IS HOPE! Finally got the email that said your Bronco will move to production the week of May 29th. I got my VIN # and all! My order contained all the things I heard were likely to cause orders to be cancelled but appears I got the lucky draw. Waited 2 years for this email so happy its here, just wish interest rates were not so high...ugh.

Cool that they are finally building your Bronco! I also kept all of my hard to handle features and got a build date. My build officially started on 4/20. It's still "in production." Be patient.

I placed my order for my 23 4Dr OBX with MIC and non Squatch early on Mar 27th through Girard Ford In Norwich, CT. I had my email from Ford within the hour. I received my production scheduled for the week of 5 June 23 email on April 20th.
I have the link to track the order, but it consistently times out without giving me anything. I don't trust the window sticker link as it shows my wife's delivered 22 Bronco Sport as not having a sticker generated. Anybody else seeing this?

Once the vehicle is listed as sold Ford will stop generating window stickers for that vehicle until it re-enters a Ford dealer system (via trade-in). So the Bronco Sport not generating a window sticker is expected.

Can't speak to the online tracker unfortunately. They completely overhauled the online tracker this past fall, and I took delivery at the end of summer 2022. I will say that is known to be very unreliable, and usually you have to talk to your dealer to get the "actual" status.

Read some but not all of this. It all comes down to it depends. Mine was built 05/06/23. Told it was released and scheduled for a 05/16 delivery. That was 4 releases ago. Now delivery of 06/08. I think part of it is my dealer is small volume. According to the Bronco help desk it's coming by truck. Takes 2 hours to get across MI. Oh WELL!!

Yea mine went into production 3-27-23, they said it was built 4-1. Deliv date was 4-24-23 there off. It’s now 6-4-23 and missed 2 releases so far. Waiting for it to be released again and hoping I catch the train this time. Getting frustrated. So close but hell it’s been 2 years 8 m since I ordered it so a little more can’t hurt. Hoping this does not go to 3 years. That would be crazy!

Very disappointed in the whole process. Ordered my Bronco in March of 22. The price increased for the 23 model even though the dealer salesperson told me in writing my order was price protected. A couple of days ago the tracker showed delivery by June 3 (built May 10). Now I'm told end of June? Six weeks to get to the dealer, really...

There are a lot of variables at play. How it's transported matters quite a bit. A friend of mine got an update indicating that his order was going to be delivered a month out but it was delivered three days later. I think they build in a buffer to keep people from getting their hopes up too much

If it's traveling by rail, there's a "handoff" to the car carrier which actually transports the vehicle to the dealership. Their schedule is different and sometimes they're short staffed so they don't want to guarantee delivery. Rather, they'll exaggerate the time it will take to reach the dealership. Needless to say, I hope yours arrives sooner than later.

EDIT: Mine was ordered in November 2021, then reordered in September 2022. It got built on December 9, 2022, and delivered to my dealer on January 13, 2023. So for me, it took a month and four days and I'm in Seattle, Washington.

Yea I think I have everybody beat now on longest wait. I also have the biggest piece of change to lose probably too. What a beautiful story I have to tell my nieces and nephews 1 day. You see it all started way back when I saw I could order a bronco finally! That here date was October 2020. I figured so I didn’t lose to much money I would also get a new edge. Figured nothing could go wrong I had a 1.9% rate and hell they tell me the most I have it was 10 months because the official date was March 2021. But don’t fear it’s based on when you put your order in. So your order in October would only need to be sent. I would keep my place in line (700 something) I was like dam skippy that’s a low number! Then all hell broke lose and Covid came and almost 3 years later I have stuck with Ford and now for my loyalty I get to pay around 8-9 k to them to take back a vehicle I was only planning to keep for 10 months! Plus all the other love of this long ride. So here is to all the other die hard Bronco lovers!! Given hell Rydell!! My day has to be soon!! I can feel it it was that my wife telling me once more to get a grip!🍺😂
