They don't have any other bronco sports coming in at all? If not I would file case with Ford to get deposit back.

They have some but they’re priced about $5K more than what I’m paying for mine and at that price I’d rather get something else which at this point I’m leaning towards

I’m a broken record around here but a recap:

11/23 I put a $500 deposit on mine under the impression that the car would arrive on 11/28 (this is what I was told by the salesman) which is why I agreed to buy it. I had sold my car the day prior.

11/29 I speak with the salesman, he says he doesn’t have an update. I come here and learn how to track it on my own. I see that it’s still “In Production” and never shipped, despite what I was told by dealership.

12/3 the ETA on tracker is pushed from 12/4 to 1/3 and at some point I learn from here that the units built in June, including mine, had been sitting in Mexico ever since.

1/3 the car finally ships.

1/4 the brake recall hits my VIN, and apparently no parts available until April-June.

I understand that I haven’t waited as long as a lot of you, but I also only agreed to buy it because I was told it would be here the following week. Now I don’t have a car, and apparently won’t for the next 4 months.

Why shouldn’t I be refunded my $500? Non-refundable is fine when you’re being honest about the transaction. Same dealership who tried to sell me on the market adjustment because it “includes a free tank of gas”.

I’ve bought from Chevy, Toyota, Lexus and Dodge and never had nearly as bad and dishonest of an experience as I’ve had with Ford. What a huge mistake I’ve made.

Rather than wait 2-3 months for the parts to repair the 2021MY, why not have them order you a 2022MY for the same price. It should be delivered about the same time as the parts for the other one as well as being a year newer.

I guess I can call them later and try but I got mine for under $32K so it might be a long shot considering Ford raised the price on 22s.

Today should have been a great day but now we have to wait on this brake recall. 4/10/2021 order date. Will be over a year before I get to drive her.

Looks great. You holding out or moving on? Did they give you a time frame for the parts?

No time frame on parts. I’m hold for a few more weeks. They have a 2022 due in at the end of the month. If recall is not fixed by then I will look at that one and maybe change to it. The things it’s missing from my order I can get from Ford so.

Reddit user claims new orders are delayed 3-6 months due to a shortage of brake parts. Per his dealer's Ford Bulletin.

The sales guy told me today there Broncos sports are on hold at their dealership for break pad recall.


Question
on the window sticker at the bottom box indicating RAIL
as a shipping method
there's a box next to it that says
ramp one.
What does the number/letter sequence in that box indicate?



thank you

He's claiming this is for new orders, not the ones already built. I'm skeptical.

The ramp number indicates where the train/Bronco is headed. I'm RH27 (SoCal).

I work at the escape plant and it was effected by this recall we have the new pads to my knowledge and shipping vehicles out. May be 3-6 months to
Get pads to dealers for recall repair. But I am not totally positive on that

I've been "In Production" since 1/12 Sad.

I'm thinking mine is stuck with missing parts somewhere. It's pinging on Etis so all of the modules are installed. Hope it's not too much of a delay.

Ordered today 1/18/2022 Bronze Smoke BL w Prem, 360, and cargo management. MSRP $38,675. Ford giving me $1000 off for pre-order and will allow any current incentives at delivery. I hope for mid May. Fingers crossed.
