01/31/2022 Build Week Club

[jmt995]

I just posted this in another thread regarding front bumper sensors, but I came across this truck today. The build is almost identical to mine right down to the AMB color. Only differences are this truck has Max Tow, Folding Rear Storage, and NO Bed Utility. My truck has Trailer Tow and Bed Utility but NO folding storage. The blend date on this truck was March 8th and it's already at the dealer. Mine was February 4th and it's still 'in production'. Maybe the holdup really is the power tailgate?

I have a power tailgate and got the built notification last week. Not holding my breath though until I see it!

Then there's just no rhyme or reason, and I should stop driving myself crazy with tracking/wishing/hoping/dreaming. ?

It's been a while since I last updated the spreadsheet, so I'll try to get caught up. There's been some deliveries and shipment notifications. Let me know if I missed anything. Added @JohnnyBoy to the spreadsheet - missing some info for you below. Also added @steamboatdevil but missing info for the spreadsheet below. Still showing three orders on chip hold - all Dearborn builds.

My Tremor is not longer on chip hold. Actually received a Shipped email on 3/11 but as of the 26th it's still sitting in Melvindale Rail yard. ETA was 3/29
to 4/4 but doubtful at this point

Being the newbie/idiot first time Leveled truck owner, I noticed quite a few people flashing me the other night... how easy/hard is it to lower the beams on the headlights? Thanks guys.

Missed your post on Sat. Just updated the spreadsheet above. Does the Activate Vehicle button appear in your Ford Pass? What does the Ford tracker show as your Built date?

We appear to be in the same situation at Ramp 58 in Melvindale waiting for a train. Let us know when you get your railcar number.

My activate button has been there for some time now with activation pending status. Tracker finally showed a 3/9 built date.

Just an FYI on the activate button on ford pass. Mine became active four days after I had the truck. Don't know why, but based on other Ford apps/trackers etc., I kinda expected that.

That seems kind of long compared to some. Mine only showed once it came off of chip hold. Not that it does me any good since now it's at Ramp 58 in Melvindale MI waiting for a train.

Ford Marketing tells me my truck is "waiting to be shipped" at Ramp 59. Vin search on Palsapp shows "null" for destination. There is also a united roads load number, which begins with 630, but it shows "inactive". (FYI my dealer received several loads with higher numbers than my load number).
I don't know what the heck is going on. Vehicle was supposed to be delivered on March 22, then March 23, then April 1-7. Ford Marketing told me yesterday that transit takes about 28 days so no way I make that. Of course I will miss out on 60 months at 0%. But what REALLY sucks is my current vehicle, which I already have an agreed trade price on (it is a 2014 Toyota Sequoia) wouldn't start on Monday. I replaced the battery (which was still under a pro-rated warranty ) for $75. Then it still would not start. So I had to pay $100 to have it towed to dealership. I just picked it up - after paying $1,500 to replace the starter (7 hours labor plus four hundred for part). Costs I would not have incurred had Ford kept its delivery as quoted. And which will not increase my trade one penny.

I'm really beginning to second guess my decision to buy a Ford (my first)!

That sucks. I'm sorry to hear it.

I see the same thing in Palsapp that you do, and have a scheduled delivery of this week. I couldn't take delivery until the week after next, so not as painful as yours, but it begs the question of whether it'll even arrive by then either.

 

[jmt995]

Awesome! I'm checking the tracker way too often to see if mine has been shipped, but it looks like I should expect about a week from my Built notification, based on your timeline.

Welp, it's been over a week since I've gotten my Built notification. Ford chat yesterday told me it will be shipped on 4/7 (delivery estimate is still 4/1-4/7). That sounded fishy to me, so opened another Ford chat today. This person told me the delivery estimate is still the same and that is has been shipped...but the tracker and United Road don't show that as accurate. Starting to lose my mind over here! haha

Kind of in the same boat as your gents, except my truck is still showing in production. Talked to a Ford rep who said it is still in production, but should be delivered 4/1-4/7. I don't have much faith in their estimates anymore lol

Same here. In production since 2/18, and somehow it's magically going to be delivered by Monday...?
