Maverick production numbers should start ramping up, as the Bronco Sport is balancing out on production. I would expect to see very low production numbers for the Bronco Sport for September, with the line transitioning to full Maverick production in October, after final cleanup on the Bronco...
So, having to wait for your truck to be built is a customer service issue? Fall begins 22 Sep, right after the autumnal equinox. Ford has NEVER stated trucks would be delivered prior to FALL.

First 2012 Fusion (Ford bought back due to electrical issues), 2014 Fusion Titanium Hybrid (may trade for the Maverick dependent upon trade offer).
Buying the Maverick for several reasons: 2014 Fusion no longer fits my weekend needs, Maverick will fix that...
