    Congrats to all those that got scheduled this week! :clap: Hope the Bronco Sport is all you want and expect it to be once it finally arrives and it is all said and done! I'm out of the waiting room too as posted in a another thread, but only because I found another brand/model vehicle locally I...

    How long are you willing to wait?

    This past weekend was the end of my wait. We drove a little further to an area Ford dealer that had about a dozen USED 2021 and 2022 Bronco Sports on the lot plus three "new" 2022 Badlands models they were trying to sell as "new" with anywhere from 2,000 to over 3000 miles that they admitted...

    I sure hope they are protecting the vehicles well from all the rail dust for these generally long treks the trains take because you can end up with a clear coat full of rust colored metal specs if not. Obviously not noticeable or as noticeable on a dark colored car depending on the color, but...

    ā° Bronco Sport Scheduling Limited Retail Orders Only Next Week (7/11)

    It means orders that were placed for vehicles by customers are being prioritized and not dealer ordered inventory vehicles. Hoping and praying mine gets scheduled this week! :please:

    ā± 2022 Bronco Sport Scheduling Next Week (6/27) For Build Weeks 8/1 Through 8/29

    While I mentioned that I understand that certain things are out of Fordā€™s control it appears that it was unfortunately also of their own doing from what some other sources are reporting: ā€œAuto manufacturers canceled semiconductor orders in the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic. Once the...

    ā± 2022 Bronco Sport Scheduling Next Week (6/27) For Build Weeks 8/1 Through 8/29

    I absolutely understand that certain things are out of Ford corporateā€™s control but then they need to take supply chain and labor issues into consideration when offering incentives and enticing people to order vehicles. I had the opportunity to buy a Badlands equipped mostly the way I wanted...

    ā± 2022 Bronco Sport Scheduling Next Week (6/27) For Build Weeks 8/1 Through 8/29

    Not an email but I texted with my sales guy today and he said he actually spoke with Ford directly and they told him that they are not just having parts issues, evidently they are having labor issues as well. This is all very frustrating and other folks being told now via email that they are...

    For those of you concerned about "non-refundable" deposits, I have my own knowledge and experience about this and was even actually advised by a former law enforcement individual that ended up going into the car sales business after they retired from law enforcement that they can say it's...

    ā± 2022 Bronco Sport Scheduling Next Week (6/27) For Build Weeks 8/1 Through 8/29

    My birthday is actually in September so as long as I can hopefully take delivery of mine some time in September I'll call it my birthday present and be a happy camper! Heck, I'll be calling it my birthday present regardless as I'll finally have my own vehicle to drive again and not just a...

    Different metals do have different temperature reactions as well, but yes, galvanic corrosion is not your friend. I'm pretty sure that it what TKP meant when he mentioned "Bi-metal reactions are awesome". šŸ˜‰

    Not specifically on a Bronco, but I can definitely share that any "metal" valve stem caps need to be used carefully if at all because they can and do get seized onto the valve stems, sometimes in a short amount of time, requiring at minimum some tools/pliers to get them off with difficulty and...

    ā± 2022 Bronco Sport Scheduling Next Week (6/27) For Build Weeks 8/1 Through 8/29

    It would also be nice if we could get clarification on what specifically would hold up an ordered vehicle from being produced or delayed longer so customers could potentially decide if they want to forgo an option to get it sooner. There is also conflicting information on this in the forum...

    ā± 2022 Bronco Sport Scheduling Next Week (6/27) For Build Weeks 8/1 Through 8/29

    Yes, I think it has been a month but they posted end of last week that they would be scheduling this week and now they posted again this week that scheduling will be taking place next week so wasn't sure if they actually scheduled some vehicles this week and are continuing next week or if it all...

    ā± 2022 Bronco Sport Scheduling Next Week (6/27) For Build Weeks 8/1 Through 8/29

    So does this mean no Bronco Sports were scheduled for production THIS week and that scheduling will now only take place next week?

    View attachment 2022 Ford Broncoā„¢ Sport SUV _ Pricing & Incentives.pdf Actually, just to clarify the "For all offers, take new retail delivery from an authorized Ford Dealerā€™s stock by 7/5/22" that is listed at the very bottom of the pdf, it applies to typical offers but not the orders. That...

    If you go to the Ford website and go to the Contact Us at the bottom, you can then go to the Ford chat and select the first option for general inquires of different things (not the SYNC related selection) and then you can chat with a Ford representative that can look up order information for you...

    Iā€™ve ordered on a couple of different occasions from Ford in the past, and in the ā€œgood ole daysā€ you could go from order to delivery in as little as 8 weeks. Iā€™m confident the Badlands will be worth it once it finally gets here, but the wait is even that much more frustrating and challenging...

    Anyone receive anything or find out any updates about their order yet today? I just checked in with Ford via chat and they said my order is still showing as in progress and awaiting scheduling. :confused:

    So what day of the week is the production scheduling finalized and should folks start getting notifications? I know it's only Wednesday but doesn't seem like anyone has posted yet about their vehicle being scheduled yet this week. I did chat with Ford in the late morning today and they said...
