"21 BS Badlands, '16 F150 Platinum FX4
I'm in almost the same boat, got an email today with a production date for the week of 6/28, the second week the plant will be shut down.
Probably bug in the automatic emails and later we get pushed to July? Or did Ford decide to open plant make some late June who knows?

Reading all the order delays makes me glad I found one with my 2nd exterior color choice and 2nd seat color choice. We’ve had the BL for 7 weeks now and it’s a blast to drive. We looked up and down Florida, Georgia and North Carolina before we found ours about 100 miles away.

me too!! My latest build date (ordered 2/8, orig build date 5/10, then 6/28) was now 7/28. But at the beginning of May I was rear ended in my 2003 Saab while at a stoplight ?, which escalated the need for my new BL Bronco Sport immensely (beyond just the obvious general impatience and frustration).

I started searching East coast, and Midwest for my specs. Lots of dead ends until finally found it (!!) in a tiny town in Minnesota!
Flew out there Sat AM of Memorial Day weekend to pick it up! Drove it back to CT with stops in Minneapolis for friends, Ohio for family.
It’s been a dream - great ride that whole long way!

I was able to snag a BL/BL through the dealer I ordered from on 2/16. Still have that unit on order and it has showed in production since 6/10. Now plant is down for two weeks. Don't know what to think, it shouldn't take that long to build. Is their tracking system inaccurate? Has the unit been pulled aside becuase of a part shortage?

Probably chips if you ordered the badlands lux package. I'd guess they see chips coming into play soon and it's easier to use the build parts available and simply add the chip when they are available...makes a lot more sense.

That's what I was told yesterday from Ford Marketing, I ordered a Badlands with BL Pkg 360 Assist and CMS.. They also asked if I ordered a 2.0 Engine, and told me there are waiting on One Chip. They never told me want chip was for.

I got Build Week June 21 and got that email June 1 after Ford said in May plant shut down. Got window sticker last week so we will see but looks like plant is open June 21 week. Will they ship mine or park it in a lot no one knows. Some are being shipped and some aren't.

Ford confirmed my order on 18 March 2021 according to Ford Order Tracker.
I have never received an E Mail from Ford nor had any up dates from dealer unless I asked.
When I asked, dealer provided me VIN and order date.
I called Ford Marketing on 9 June and was told my BS was scheduled to go into production 19 July.
I called Ford Marketing on 18 June and was told my BS was scheduled to go into production 16 August.
I finally got it thru my thick head what Ford means when they tell you when your BS will go into production.
Since no new orders should take precedence over mine, what Ford means is that they have no idea when parts will be on hand to make my BS, but it won't be soon.
This would seem to also mean that Ford's schedule for switching production from MY 21 to MY 22 is either a dream or some of us are going to get left out.
