Yeah, and who knows what sweet new vehicle will be launched in ‘23-‘24..
hah, honestly you deserve to shove it in their face like so with a nice little note “thanks for screwing the small dealerships, lost my business”
There's still a small part of me that hopes Ford will do the right thing. The sad part is like most things today is money/profit driven so I'm not expecting much will come from all the customers complaints.Yeah, and who knows what sweet new vehicle will be launched in ‘23-‘24..
Let us know how that test ride goes if so, and of course take pictures
Never know, let’s hope they do right. But like you said, can’t count on anything anymore with money/profit driven strategies. What happen to customer service? Oh right, no one gives a darn about that anymore except for Chick Fil A. ?
Don't get me started on bad customer service, we're the king of it here! It was bad enough before the shortages now it's even worse. We're going out to dinner tonight to a place we usually get decent service. I'm hoping it's still that way because after this news I can't take much more today. ?
Enjoy your dinner my friend, the world owes it to ya to give you a decent server
Coming MY '24.Just don't order this it might take awhile
?
Well I don't think anyone owes me anything but good service shouldn't be that difficult . ?Enjoy your dinner my friend, the world owes it to ya to give you a decent server
That sucks dude.Ford really just screwed Bronco order holders again! They put out their new allocation formula yesterday for the '22 year and it's basically screwing over every small dealership that has a Bronco reservation and rewarding big dealerships. Ford initially said the EVERY order would be filled by reservation timestamp but then the larger dealerships complained and Ford changed to an allocation system.
In other words a small town dealership like Granger Ford in IA where me and Jim @wanted33 bought ours who has 1075 orders will only get 150-220 at best filed in 2022. At this rate I'd be lucky to see mine until 2024, right in time for the next Gen Bronco!
I know I've said I'm a huge Ford fanboy but honestly Ford can go #@!& themself if this is how they're going to treat their customers and their smaller dealers. This is what they want to do going forward, a reservation based system where you have to special order your vehicle and only have limited dealer stock. I know other launches might not be as disastrous as the Bronco launch as there was a 25 year hiatus but it's still a BS move by Ford to change the rules to benefit their big time dealers instead of HONORING their original agreement. There are a lot of unhappy Bronco order holders now and I hope Ford gets an earful in the coming weeks, probably won't do any good though. Sorry for the long rant but it's not the news I wanted to hear this Saturday morning. /rant over....for now
For most dealers it will get filled. For us, probably not.
Common sense is a misnomer, since it's uncommon.
Just an FYI brother. Ford has dropped their U.S. customer service email from their web page. Now, it's all social media contact, i.e. Twitter, Instagram, Facebook. So, G.F.'s youngin' will have a ball sending them your response. I just sent Ford a long, and strong rebuke on Facebook. I don't have much hope that it will do any good, but they can't say I didn't tell them about how I feel about this debicle.
Thanks for the heads up Jim. I'll write something up and send it to her, she loves this stuff. I guess time will tell.Just an FYI brother.
