Paperwork for price lock refund
Does anyone know what paper work the dealer needs to send to Ford for reimbursement/credit for trucks ordered before the price changes?
Thanks,
Al

I don't know about the paperwork, but here is some info that was posted here or on Blue Oval forums. Give to your dealer and that may help.

When I took delivery of my truck some $500 in price increases were in effect by the time my truck arrived. When I ordered, I put cash down and signed a buyers order that locked in price protection between Ford, the dealer and me.
At delivery the dealer asked me to sign a document that proved to Ford that I was a real customer and had in fact taken delivery of the truck. This allowed the dealer to get a $500 refund from Ford, adjusting the invoiced price to the agreed upon price.
Not everyone had the same experience as me. And this was back in Sept 2021 so things my have changed.

This is a bit of a mess and Ford could have simplified it.
I ordered my '22 on March 23rd last year and I'm picking it up tomorrow. there has been $1784 in price increases since I ordered it.
First my dealer told me the invoice would reflect the price protection and it was all handled. now they tell me I have to pay the new invoice price and Ford will reimburse them for each price increase and they're distribute it to me as they receive it. this is all doable and I don't have any choice in it but what a stupid way to do business. I'll know tomorrow for sure but this is what the dealership owned told me today.

2. If vehicle was ordered prior to the announcement of a price increase, it may be eligible for price protection.

As I understand it, the Ford price protection has been around for years. Your dealer should know exactly what paperwork needs to be filed with Ford to get their reimbursement.

If the dealer lowers the price then they have to wait for Ford to reimburse them. or they can have you wait to be reimbursed. which option do you figure most dealers will take ?
It's not a big deal but it's just one more example of how little Ford cares about the customer.

Like I said that's up to the dealer. I'll see when I pick it up but mine has told me I'm doing the waiting.
I don't care as long as I get it back but Ford could just bill the dealer the actual price if they gave a FF and leave them out of the price protection game.
After 50 weeks of Ford lying to me and playing all these stupid games I've lost my sense of humor.

If the dealer doesn't know which paperwork to submit I think you purchased from the wrong dealer!

As it stands there are dealers who won't file the paperwork because they "don't know how" and its up to the customer to either find out how to do it themselves or wait another six months to a year for a rig.

I had to pay the new invoice price and the dealer will pass the repayment for the price protection on to me when they receive it. they said Ford is really slow getting it to them and they don't plan to carry it on their books.
