What was your build date supposed to be?
My original build date was 3/15 but was extended a week to 3/22 a day after I submitted my order. My order date was 1/5.
Ordered BL+BL on 2/22. Received confirmation within 2 days. Nothing since. I’m thinking around twice as long as the dealer told me. Probably 12-16 weeks.I know you warned me, delays and all... ordered Badlands with Badlands package, cargo management, hitch, grey roof, etc on 2/17. Got Ford's order email confirmation the same day. And... nothing since. I don't think I'm getting it by the end of May anymore. I'm hoping for some movement on my order and first half of June delivery at this point.
Any body else in the same waiting room?

Hmmm this slow process and some of the issues reported elsewhere on this forum are making me reconsider my decision. Perhaps a RAV4 hybrid is in my future (the Escape hybrid is :/).

I'll be trading in my 2019 Rav4 hybrid on the BS. I have very little bad to say about it.
I don't have carplay or android auto, that came in 2020. I have the well documented fuel fill issue where it is difficult to get a full tank of gas.
I'm trading it in because we want the Bronco Sport. That's it. Otherwise I will whole heartedly recommend the Rav4 hybrid.
Does anyone know how one can get the dealership to give me information about the dealer ordered sport that I put a deposit down on. I was told March 15 delivery but now all I get is "any day now". I have the vin but this tracker tool doesn't work very often.
If you have your order number from Ford, use this link to see if Ford has any additional information: https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking#/

Do you know if Toyota ever fixed the fuel filler issues on later models?
I haven’t had too many issues with my 2017 Escape. It has a lot of interior rattles and one of the front speakers was replaced under warranty — now the other seems fuzzy and needs replacing. One of the front struts needed to be replaced under warranty. It’s kind of a noisy car though. Otherwise it’s been easy to own.
Call Ford Marketing @ 800-334-4375 . They are great. Tell them you are looking for your order # and they will find it. You will need to tell them your name, the dealer name, and if any other orders are similar they might ask you to verify some specific features. Once you have the Order Number you can use the shop.ford.com link.
Even if I didn't place the order? Would my dealership know I asked Ford marketing for the info? The dealership ordered it for themselves and I just put a deposit down. I've been waiting since Jan. They ordered it in November I guess.

I don't know if the new ones are fixed, you might check a Rav4 forum.
Toyota sent me a "not really a recall" letter with some BS (not bronco Sport, the other BS) about how many gallons from empty to full and if you get that many it's all good (for them). What happens is that you essentially lose about 3 gallons of capacity. Fortunately it's a hybrid and you'll still get 450 miles around town pretty easy. I routinely get middle 40's around town. It's not so much the issue as the response that ticks me off.
I found a little trick, fill it on the slowest setting and after the nozzle clicks off wait 30 seconds or more if you can and then trickle in gas. Last time at the pump I got 1.6 gallons more in the tank that way.
