This is step in the right direction, even if it comes late:

Hello,

We couldn't be more excited for you to become a part of the Bronco ™ family.
Which makes any delays in getting your Bronco™ Sport SUV out into the wild, all the more upsetting.
Because of the global chip shortage, your vehicle delivery is delayed.
However, right now, semiconductor chips are starting to arrive for Bronco™ Sport SUV vehicles.
Which means, if everything goes according to plan, your Bronco™ Sport SUV should be delivered by the end of November 2021.
We know this is not what you expected and are truly sorry for the delay. We are doing everything we can to get your vehicle to you as soon as possible.
We thank you for your patience and loyalty, and as a gesture of our appreciation, you will be receiving an email from [email protected] with a $100 Amazon Gift Card* that you can use now.
It's a small gesture, but we hope some Bronco™ merchandise, or anything else you might need, can help pass the time until your Bronco™ Sport SUV rolls into town.
Sincerely,
The entire Bronco Team

*Additional terms and conditions may apply.

This email if sent in mid-June would have made a huge difference in my opinion of Ford.

Even now, it does help to smooth out some of the hard feelings I have towards Ford and I give them credit for doing it.
Got the same email. Works out to about 50 cents per day of waiting past the estimated delivery date I was given when I ordered. That seems about fair right?

Honestly I’m glad I saw all of you post about this first because I would have thought it was a scam and deleted the email as I found the one with the link the the card first before the one from Ford. I mean really, how many times is it legit that you “won a free Amazon gift card” LOL! Just enter your SS# and DOB here to claim your gift ?

Got the same email too. We officially hit the one year mark since we ordered and still no car. Glad they’re at least acknowledging how ridiculously long we’ve waited for our car.

Well gee all they gave out for the big bronco was a crappy undersized hammock ? I much would have preferred 100 bucks. The included hang in there card did make me laugh though.

Anyone know how the window sticker works? It first populated on 10/20 with 10.20.2021 in the box. Bottom of sticker has had 10/20, 10/21, and just updated to 10/22 today. What would the third date change mean?

I think I figured out why I haven't received any emails about my orders. I sat down and placed my orders with the fleet manager, and when he forwarded me my confirmation email it was addressed to him.

He must've tabbed through the email section? Or that's just a quirk of ordering in person.

The changes don’t mean anything, they update with just pulling up the window sticker. I used to follow all the changes and then when the serious delays started hitting I noticed that nothing applies, even if it did a few years ago. My car is built and shipped and I have no blend date. The date on the bottom of my sticker is stuck at 10/20 and yet that date doesn’t correlate with anything as my vehicle was finished being built on 10/15 and shipped on the 16th.

I read on a Ford site that The date on the bottom is meaningless. it reflects access, web update, etc . Nothing related to anything for your order

Most of the threads on various websites that I found with the window sticker information were from several years ago so I think maybe it meant something done but it definitely doesn’t anymore I agree. The blend date was a big one, I’d you saw that it meant the car was built. I never got a blend date and my car is in transit now ??‍♀
