Thread regarding Ford layoffs

Ford is out of Blue Nameplate Badges

Are you kidding me. Stock is down another 5% and we can't ship vehicles because we are out of logos. LOL.

What a shxx show!

When you go with the lowest cost, unproven supplier, you pay them peanuts and you get Monkees....and pollution ....and epa violations...and plant shutdowns.....and unfinished vehicles parked for months on end

All of use should take our fe--s, shape then into ovals, and let them put them on the trucks. After all, all we build are POS!

  1. If the they drop the Ford badge how will people know its a Ford?
  2. By the number of recall letters owners get.

They will update the vehicles with badges OTA, when they come in.

I think the logo is a symbol of corporate oppression against the working class and the environment…electric cars damage the environment. When will you wake up? Haven’t you read the Brave New World…this year is AF 114. (After Ford 114).

We came up with covid sp-t shield masks in record time...why can't we make our own emblems in-house. Seriously! No moving parts. Even Fartley can figure that out!

Logo started on fords in 1983…Logo should get laid off at this point. It means nothing anymore and is an anachronistic symbol..just like “quality is job 1”..”have you driven a ford…lately” “built ford tough” etc.

They can have mine! I have an older F150. The front one looked like bu-t, all faded. Kind of like Bill's noticed face. The back one looks fine. But I replaced them with cooler emblems on Amazon. So they can have both of these. I'll never advertise for this company ever again.

My truck's grille emblem faded and looked like cr app. Had to get a new one from the dealer. Embarrassing to say the least. Whomever was responsible for those versions of the blue oval emblem hopefully were cut. How could you sc--w that up so badly? Yeah, I'm still ticked about it.

Fun fact...Kia emblems are the exact same oval shape and proportions of the Ford oval (thanks to the old rebadged Kia called the Ford Festiva).

Not to mention all the faded emblems out there. I cannot believe that a company that cares about its “brand” wouldn’t replace these at no charge. Or better yet, pay the supplier to manufacture them with fade-resistant materials…. SMH.

Your cars would be worth more if you keep the blue oval off the vehicle. Now is ur chance. The car is perceived less value with it on.

I would think more cars would be sold without the ugly logo. Change it already…look at GM.

Out of badges? This cannot be true. If so, Henry Ford has rolled over in his grave once again, a daily ritual.

First response wins. If this doesn't get Farley fired, nothing will. And they should broom all of hires he brought in as well.

Call GM. Hot gluing their badges on other people's stuff is their specialty.

Did anyone check at Blue Oval City in Tennessee? That sound like a place one might find some.

Even worse, Ford’s badge supplier was POLLUTING MICHIGAN WATERWAYS.:

The Wall Street Journal reported a Michigan-based supplier called Tribar Technologies, Inc. that has made badges for Ford in the past had to limit operations in August, after disclosing to Michigan regulators it had discharged industrial chemicals into a local sewer system.

A message seeking comment from Tribar was not immediately answered. Ford declined to comment on whether Tribar’s limited operations were connected to the automaker’s name-badge shortage.

The Blue Oval badges just fall off or turn silver color.

They should just use blue oval stickers and then issue a recall when the plates come in. LOL
