Could be on delivery hold if you have the 4k tow package or other recall issues. That is a long delay.

Most likely held up due to mod center constrained commodity. I have seen some units get held up two months after being "built". I can pull up the Visibility report if you send me your VIN, might shed a little more light.

Trying to apply logic to ANYTHING Ford CR does is a waste of time!

lol, welcome to the club man, bunch of us are on hold and awaiting shipment since before your built date with no sign of any communication on what’s going on from Ford, i know personally my dealer is just as in the dark as myself and doesn’t know why mine hasn’t been shipped since it has been sitting on the ramp at Hermosillo just waiting to be picked up since august 29th

Mine was built 2 Sep. It's been in the railyard at KCMO since at least 23 Sept. I have now gotten my 3rd email moving the expected delivery dates (this week). I'm not holding my breath.

Mine, (late July '21 order) was shipped to Nogales, AZ September 30, now crickets. Built 9/23.

Mine got to Nogales on 7 Oct. Crossing my fingers it moves forward with yours...

I see most of you have September build dates that are on shipping hold. Sounds like my situation however I was built on June 22nd. The truck went to Dearborn MI instead of my dealer in Canton OH, I can only guess because it was one of the last few lots before they corrected the side curtain aribags issue. It's still there with no communication at all. I wasn't even aware of the 4K recall from April.

My theory is they built my truck and many others in March like they originally said, however they let it sit in wait for the chips or (insert constraint here) then finished in in June. I may still have the 4K recall and they're probably all confused as hell trying to figure out who needs what after the fact.

Their pride must be keeping them from just being honest with us.

Sorry for the ramble there but has anyone else here been built as far back as July that has been given no more info like me?

Oh buddy it sucks trust me. Built 8/25 and awaiting shipment since then..

The problem is probably more to do with the fact that Ford and Ford dealers are separate entities. Ford seems to only care that their customer gets a vehicle. You AREN'T Ford's customer. You are your dealer's customer. Ford's customer is their dealer.

While this is not 100% accurate, it would explain why a vehicle can leave as "Built" but really, it's still being worked on albeit by some 3rd party to install film, tonneau cover, etc. Ford seems to lose interest in keeping the end customer in the know about their vehicle.

Not that this would ever be the case but wouldn't it be nice if once your vehicle came off the main line, Ford would activate some kind of active tracking and provide the dealer AND final customer, if there is one, with the ability to log in and see where there vehicle is? Sort of like the Apple Tags, Tile, Lowjack or, heck, Tesla type of tracking capability.

Shoot, while I'm at it, why not pick the major component, tag it immediately, and provide camera feeds within the factory? I mean, the feed could be delayed - lets say one day and you could go in and watch your vehicle being put together, painted, etc. at a sped up pace. Shoot, make it a paid service and offer it as a package on ordering, "Active vehicle tracking and build footage access, $200" New revenue for Ford? You heard it here first. Ford, I require no royalties for the "new" idea. Well, maybe let me watch my truck being built. LOL

I guess the part that is really irking me is our order was confirmed June 23rd of 2021.
So to have it built and just sitting there is driving me nuts

Man I feel bad for you guys waiting. I’m already contemplating selling and getting stuck in your position ordering a Bronco when it opens.

You actually made by day since I thought I was the only one left who had ordered in July 2021, their vehicle was built, and kept getting new dates for delivery since August 2022, now November 14-28, 2022. Someday soon. If the 2023 hybrid was in AWD, I would have ordered one and just sold this one when that one came in, but no such luck.
