01/03/22 Build Week

The “Activate vehicle” button should sit under the lightning graphic in the Ford Pass mobile app, shouldn’t need web to check that.

I don’t think anyones trackers for MY22 are working. Really wish the tracker and window sticker generator were working right now.

No kidding. Seeing a window sticker BEFORE the build date would have been nice.

Guess when you are plunking out 1300 of these pigs a day, customer service is not a high pri.

Guess I should have ordered a Bronco.

I got nothing in my app, except a cute little pic of a truck I didn’t order. Do we need to use a windows or linux system to see anything?

It shows a generic lightning for everyone currently, i believe.

Valid they are a car company not a IT company.

I will say if their dream of not keeping as much inventory on dealer lots and allow people to do more custom builds is to ever become a reality they need to get this process figured out.

Can't company too much I guess, one I want the good Karma, two my truck is being build quicker than I thought it would be.

The good news is, while we wait, we can play with the app and enlarge that cute little lightning truck picture by tapping on the arrow icon on the right. At least there's movement.

That's a good point. My sales guy did tell me the day I ordered that the process would take 3-4 months, and here we are at about 3 1/2 months. Can't really complain, but it's kind of stressful when you start thinking about chip shortages, other parts in short supply, possible Covid shutdowns. Who knows?

I'm more worried about value on my trade. Want to get it sold before used car prices tumble. Think I should be ok but the forecast is for them to drop some in the coming months.

Interesting, thank you! I'm using this info on whether to reach out to my dealer today or tomorrow. Sounds like you've received quite a bit of info and are not seeing the same progress as I have. Might be worth a reach out today

I clicked activate, maybe one of the rail yard workers will hop in and accept it so i can track it lol

The info I received this morning was on the Order Fulfillment Vehicle Visibility one line form my salesman sent as a photo.

FYI
This dealership has a clerk in charge of obtaining this info and sharing with sales on request.
