Waiting no more.
The dealer called this morning around 0900 to tell me my Bronco Sport had come in last night.
It came in two weeks earlier than Ford Vehicle Order Tracking was predicting.
Badlands w/ Badlands Package ( incl moon roof), Tow. Falken Tires, 360+, Cyber Orange
Was ordered 18...
At 0830 PDT, Ford Order Tracker changed from "Order Confirmed" 3-18-2021" to "In Production 8-27-2021" and "Built 8-27-2021", "Awaiting Shipping", "ETA 10-4".
Interesting that my dealer does not have any of this information yet.
On 20 August, the Ford Order Tracker added a note saying In...
Finally making progress on my order of 18 March of a
BL/BL ( with Moon Roof ), 360+, Tow, Falken Tires, Cyber Orange.
Yesterday, my Ford Order Tracker changed from "order accepted" to "In Production"
and this AM I got a Window Sticker.
Interestingly, my dealer has had an expected delivery date...
Just when I thought that the situation could not get stranger, it did.
Called Ford Marketing this AM to see if I could get an update since I never get any E Mails from Ford.
The young man on the phone said my order was accepted and was scheduled for production, but that he could not tell me the...
If the BL with BL package is the problem, then why were plain BLs not available to order ?
Why did customers with BL/BL orders not get the choice to take out the moon roof option as did OB and BB order customers ?
My problem is the complete lack of communication from Ford or my dealer as to...
The saga of my order continues.
Our BL/BL ( with moon roof ), +360,Tow, Falken Tires, Cyber Orange was ordered 18 March
As of today:
The Ford Tracker shows "Order Confirmed" 18 March and nothing else.
According to my dealer, It is scheduled to be delivered 24 September, but he has no further...
I should be in your area.
Within 300 miles ( Spokane - Boise - Tri Cities ) more than a million population, I find three Badlands listed - all in transit.
My local dealer has not had a Bronco Sport in over three months, has two listed "In Transit" neither is a Badlands
Disclaimer - I have no advance knowledge and have a 2021 Badlands on order since 18 March that is not in, nor currently scheduled for production according to Ford Marketing.
I am beginning to have doubts that the Badlands model will be available for 2022.
What we do know:
New orders were shut...
I'll join the crowd of "happy customers"
Made my bi-weekly call to Ford Marketing this AM to check on my order since I have never received an E Mail from Ford and little from my dealer.
My order is still in "Order Accepted Status" and I am not scheduled for production yet.
The pleasant voice...
Now if the CEO and the marketing folks would talk to the production folks and actually build the cars that people have ordered this might work.
However, if the current "take orders and expect buyers to have infinite patience" system continues good luck.
Our local dealer received a big Bronco...
So I must be getting special care.
Ford is giving me special treatment, since by not scheduling my BS to go to production I do not have to worry about it sitting in the desert sun and providing shade for snakes, scorpions and lizards.
Plus, if I never have it built, I do not have to pay extra...
One huge advantage my 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk has is that it is in my driveway.
My 0-60 Bronco sport Badlands has been on order for 4 1/2 months and is not yet scheduled for production.
Nor has Ford ever said when they might get around to making it.
It is currently clocked at 0.
Ford is not being totally honest with those of us who have ordered a Bronco Sport in good faith.
On 15 April, Ford stopped taking orders for the Badlands model.
I do not recall that a reason was given.
Speculation was that the Badlands package included the moon roof option which was presumed to...
Ordered 3/18/21: Cyber Orange Badlands, Badlands Package, Tow Package, Copilot 360 Assist+, 235 AT tires, Cargo Mat
My weekly phone call to Ford Marketing gets less encouraging each week.
For several weeks, the pleasant women on the phone said it was scheduled for production on 23 August.
For...
Badlands/BL package, tow, 360+, Falken tires, Cyber Orange - ordered 18 March
Ford Tracker says "order in processing"
Have had VIN for well over a month.
Have never received an E Mail from Ford
My weekly call to Ford Marketing says I'm scheduled to go into production 23 August.
I view this as...
