I thought I’ll create a thread for those that did not receive a price protection (ordered before dec 8, 2021) at the time of the delivery and was told it will come after Ford sends dealer the refund. If you received a check later, please feel free to share how long it took after delivery to receive it. This should help those that are waiting and get a good idea how long Ford is taking to refund the dealer.

I took delivery 07/06/22 and received refund on 10/24/22. About 110 days and looks like on average its about 3 months to receive your price protection refund based on date collected below.

Took delivery 7/1. Nothing yet. My dealer had told me that it typically takes ~45 days so I am not stressing about it yet.

Related question, do we pay the tax on the higher amount during vehicle delivery? Does that part get refunded, too?

My wife works in the office of a local Ford dealer. It can take over 45 days as Ford only pays once a month. I would suggest to all to follow up with your dealer from time to time. The payment back to the dealer is just a line item on a monthly electronic payment mixed in with many various payment. I do not know this, but if the dealer is unsophisticated enough to not give you the protection up front, they may miss this when the refund occurs. The dealer will have to cut you a check as it is not a check sent to the dealer on your behalf. I know my local dealer missed this on some Bronco’s but they sent the checks out after they realized their mistake. Best of luck to everyone.

Picked up car 6/2/22 was told I would have to wait for Ford to pay. I was given a "Due Customer Form" from dealer stating the 2K price protection.
I was called on 7/29/22 that check was at dealer and did I want it mailed or pickup.
Since the dealer is les tha four miles away I picked up the check on 7/30/22.

I never doubted the sales maanger at the dealership and he would have applied it at time of sale, but his boss (the GM) said all customers need to wait until they are paid.

Yes you pay the higher tax, and no that doesn't get refunded.

Can someone tell me what this is all about? I ordered my car in 7/21 and then didn't pick up the car until Jan 22. Is this something you had to apply for?

I was told by Ford that the dealer has to sell it to me at the original price from my order on nov 8, 2021. That the order has to match the name of the sale. And that the dealer would get refunded. The sales person told me they would sell it at sticker price. I didn't want to haggle with them after waiting 9 months. So i just bought it at sticker price and left. Very uncomfortable experience at the dealership. Anyways, that was last Friday. Im just hoping the fed tax credits hadn't run out.
