Here it is with some bugs and spots on it from the rain. I love how blue it can look at times, and how black it looks when the light isn’t directly on it.
I hit 1,000 miles on my truck today, so I figured I'd give an update to anyone else still wondering about these Job 1 trucks, and people so rarely seem to post updates when things are all positive so I wanted to do that.
I absolutely love the truck, and have had 0 issues with it. Obviously...
Yeah, I feel like I always post the same thing in multiple threads here, so I shared a little less in this post.
I was glad the dealer seemed to be nearly as frustrated with Ford as I was - they're trying to get more specifics about the quality hold, and so far they've only been told that it...
Mine was delivered this weekend, and I inspected yesterday. All looks good except for some exterior rubber pieces fading from the months outside - detailing should be able to clear it all up. I'll report back here if I notice any issues with it.
My truck was delivered this weekend, and I went to inspect it yesterday. Everything looks good on it, except the exterior rubber pieces. My dealer mentioned that ford doesn’t put the protective stuff on them when they store trucks outside, so all along the windows (not just the gaskets), near...
My dealer has been digging for answers from ford about the delay, and so far only heard that the PCM was causing headlight flickering. Hard to believe that’s what held thousands of trucks up for months and months.
I posted this in another thread, but realized it might make more sense here.
I just received an email saying my Job 1 January blend date platinum was delivered to the dealership. Now the big decision for me - take this one, or wait an unknown amount of time for the second order I made. I’m...
Just received an email that my Job 1 January blend date quality issue truck was finally delivered.
I’m anxious to pick this one up, so wanted to check again if anyone has any updates from customers about problems once those job 1 trucks actually have been delivered. I’m hesitant to take this...
Exactly my thoughts. Hard to feel very confident hopping into a truck that I know for a fact has been sitting outside in a lot for months because of some issue that clearly isn't simple to resolve.
Let us know if you notice or hear anything regarding what was actually causing the hold up. I was just notified that my 702a was shipped today (order 9/14), and I'm really wondering if I should trust this truck after all it's already been through :facepalm:
I'm in the same exact boat for dates on my 702a (see my signature for the timeframe).
I did however receive an update this morning that my first order was updated to "Built"... makes me question the July date I was told. Ford just seems to have no clue with these first batch trucks.
Now I'm...
It is, but I don't believe that's the reasoning behind it. They have other places they can store these trucks now, especially with so many more of them being shipped (seems to just be the high trims from those very early build dates that still aren't shipping anytime soon).
When I was told this...
Yep. Kept asking for more details and updates on what’s causing it and if there was an estimated timeframe. They eventually went up the chain and were told July was when the quality hold was expected to be released.
Believe it or not, you're in a better position than a lot of us. Ordered mine 9/14 with a production date in mid-January, and that truck is now estimated to be released in July.
My second order (I'll be taking whichever can be delivered first) has a production date of mid-May, which I would...
I re-ordered on March 22, received a confirmation of the order that same day, then another email on April 4th letting me know it was scheduled for production May 13th.
I would suggest you contact your dealer if you are still waiting. My dealer was able to get some more information on when they expected to release my January blend Platinum, and they came back saying they should get shipped out in July. This caused me to cancel and re-order (now with the PAT)...
I re-ordered my Powerboost Platinum 702a (see updates/timeline in my signature) and just got my emailed schedule date of May 13th.
Mine was updated to priority code 3 due to the issues with my first order - hoping it will actually speed things up.
I was on the exact same timeline, and ended up having to cancel my order and start a new one. I'd check with your dealer about a timeline for the QC issue.
It was listed in the tracker as in production (not sure anything that tracker says means anything), but the dealer confirmed it was built for well over a month - just waiting on this thing to be fixed.
