With the exception First Edition, those who ordered a 2021 2-door or 4-door hardtop Bronco that hasn’t been built yet will now receive a 2022 model instead. Production of the 2022 Bronco is expected to start in late December 2021 and Ford will honor the price of the 2021 model for affected orders.
Soft top versions of the Bronco are unaffected by the quality control issue and production delays, however. Alternatively, those who already have a hardtop on order can switch to a soft-top roof. 4-door soft-top orders with a September 2021 build date will receive a complementary hardtop roof prep kit. This will enable owners to purchase an available accessory hardtop roof, which will be available in 2023.
