I received my window sticker last Friday and when looking for a blend date, didn’t notice one. I googled and read online and everything I see shows where it should be, but mine doesn’t have that information.
Can I assume the window sticker will be updated at some point with this information? Or am I really missing something when I look it over?

Ours never got a blend date. From what I remember seeing in the “weekly roll call” thread, when the first 2022 window stickers started showing up, none had a blend date. I assume none of those updated with a date, just like ours didn’t. It doesn’t seem to be a “thing” for the BS.

Thanks for the info. I was beginning to get a little concerned, but it sounds like this is normal.

Mine had a blend date. I believe it should have one to indicate when it was basically 'built'.

FYI, here is the thread I was referring too…

https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/weekly-roll-call-on-production-week-of-1-03-2021.4254/page-4

Starting on page 4 is the first 2022 sticker I’m aware of on the forum. A few more stickers on pages 5 and 6 too, including mine. They all have the invoice date and sticker generation date but no blend date.

Thought I had seen somewhere that 21’s had them but 22’s don’t. The blend date was something I was anxiously awaiting to see, but it never came. I have a suspicion the date that shows up under the “in production” notification on Ford’s tracker is the blend date.

I never got a blend date on my electronic sticker. I'll have to check the sticker that came on the vehicle and see if it has one.

Thanks for finding this. I’ll definitely read it over. The Ford tracker website says it’s in production, but it doesn’t have a date yet under those words. I just keep refreshing throughout the day ?

Google says it best ? “Blend is the point where the chassis and body meet on the assembly line to go through final assembly. The work on the body and chassis has already begun a few shifts before this date.”

2021, but I believe it is a 'standard' as all new cars come with it.
You are correct, all vehicles have a blend date, Ford just doesn’t show it anymore on the BS digital stickers. And I’m almost positive it is not on the “real” sticker that came with our BS. Why they quit adding that info ?‍♂
