Waiting room

[omahafordowner]

I am no "Nostradumass", but I predict the reason why FORD stopped taking Badlands model orders back in mid April is because they need the 2.0L Ecoboost engines (that would normally be put into BS Badlands models) for Maverick production.

That could be. I was thinking that the 2.0 system might use chips that are even harder to get.

M&M, what was the number you called for Ford Marketing?

800.334.4375. Hoping the person I talked to was wrong. I’m still waiting to hear back from my dealer.

Right? I think we need to start a new thread about what we're all buying instead as the Badlands isn't realistically available until 2022. I don't have a car at all right now and have been waiting it out. I may just buy some POS and see where the pieces shake loose. I understand the shortage of parts, I really do but the way Ford has handled this has left me questioning if I really want to be their customer. Maybe they did us all a favor. I'm so pissed.

If you start the thread, I for one will reply.

Well, after todays news I'm not sure this is the great news I was hoping it would be... I now have a window sticker. The date on it is 06-07-21. I have not yet received an email from Ford for this update, I was just checking the tracker.

order : 3/19/21
confirmation email with build date : 4/15

Area 51, BL+BL, 235's, 360+, tow, cargo mgmt, floor liners and cargo mat.

$640 higher than order price. $540 on MSRP and an extra $100 for the 360+

Mine changed to 6/4. According to dealer, it’s at a junction point. I’m not sure if she can see VVR since she’s the finance person we ordered it thru

I asked my dealer today for an update, but haven't heard back yet. Did you hear any news? Of course, I'm assuming we are on the same track

 

[HK22]

Dealer got me with a 500 dollar non-refundable deposit. I'm not to the point where I'm ready to just eat the 500 dollars...

And I'm not too keen on "close enough". I am a drive it til it dies kind of vehicle owner, and if I'm going to have it that long, it is going to have all the bells and whistles I wanted in it.

So I reckon I really have no beef to gripe - I've made my own bed at this point. But still frustrating.

I’m in the same boat, $500 is still a lot of money for me to throw away.

Yea M&M, I gave them a call and the person who answered said he knows of no not building Sports and pushing delivery or to OCT. He said if your vehicle is not built, we would be notified..

I called the dealer during my lunch break today. He said he would call me back in 10 minutes but that was 8 hours ago?. Nothing has changed on any of the tracking sites either

This is the exact example that drives me nuts. My BL+BL with 235’s and tow package was ordered on 2/22 and has a build week of 8/9! Does Ford realize the number of people I have told about this inconsistency! I know I know, they don’t care.

Ford has more Bronco Sport buyers then they need. They can sell every BS they can make. They don't care if ppl are getting jerked around on the ordered units.

Called Ford Marketing just now to check on my order of 18 March:
BL w/BL package ( moonroof ), tow, 360, Falken tires, orange.

It shows in the Ford Order Tracker as order confirmed and I have had a VIN # for a month
but I have never received any E Mails from Ford and no Window Sticker is available yet.

The pleasant lady on the phone said it is scheduled for production the week of 19 July.
No thoughts on why I never get any E Mails.

That's got to be a mistake. Call the Dealer or Ford.

I just got this too today! I have a call into my dealer.... there’s NO WAY

birddog2, I don't get any emails either. If your dealer never attached an email to your order , you will not. I never passed him an email, and I'm thinking now too far along to bother.

 

[Bold Tracey]
