4/26 Build Week

[shtraver]

I'm in the same situation. My new RV is ready for pick up at the dealership and I don't have a truck to tow it... My ETA End Date was pushed today from Jul 29 to Aug 28.
I'm shocked! ?

I am in similar situation. All of us should email and call Ford customer support and voice our displeasure. They are starting to wreck our summer plans. When I first went to the dealer my number 1 thing was that I have my truck in time for summer, they said "oh yeah of course no problem. The truck will be in by then." I already contacted Ford customer support and I will let you all know what they say. Maybe we can get a credit out of them or free extended warranty?

Looks like I'm officially in the 8/28 club. Ford moved me from 5/24. A glimmer of hope is PALSAPP has a freight bill number with status: Pending

The freight bill on PALSAPP is created when the VIN is generated.

I called Ford customer support many times. All they can tell is the same info that we can see in the tracker:
"Yout ETA end date is... Unfortunately, we don't have any additional info."

My ETA just went from August 14th to August 28th. What is going on? (original was May 13th)

I posted this over on the 3/15 thread. I'll put it here also in case some of you don't read the other build week threads.

I see a lot of posts from people about ETA this or ETA that....In case you didn't realize, these dates are placeholders. In the grand scheme of things, they really don't mean anything. If you notice, the dates that were pushed out to Aug was simply a 90 day bump. That means they have no idea when these trucks are going to be completed. Maybe they get completed sooner, maybe later.

I saw a interview where the executives were saying they are literally going day by day and don't know how many semiconductors they are getting until they show up on the dock. At this point, I would not even consider these ETA dates a "best guess". I would consider them a "well we have to enter something, lets put it 90 days out" type of date.

Just checked mine too, 8/28. Time to call the dealer and cancel this crap, not paying for a truck thats been sitting around 6 months and is end of production.

As stated before the no information thing is really bothering me. However it also seems we all have the same date, makes me think this is a big estimate. Who knows when we will actually be seeing these trucks.

I agree
I'm somewhat confident that we will see our trucks before August.

The freight bill on PALSAPP is created when the VIN is generated.

That could be but VIN was created in April or before, I don't know when but I didn't get it until April 8 and the freight bill information showed up on the Palsapp on April 24. Just saying.

Got hit with the 8/28 ETA today. Ordered 2/27. Built 4/28. Sales said it’s been built and awaiting shipment since April 29. Here’s hoping they’re all getting moved out at the same time. Never thought I’d have a VIN number memorized so I’ll chalk that up as something new lol

Same day built. Totally agree on the vin. If I had time, I would create a script to look for data changes on the tracker here specific to my Vin and order number. Just notify me when there is a a change ?. Last time I did anything like that was about 20 years ago using vb, I think I would have to brush up my skills again.?

Since I live in Ontario and been in lockdown forever. I checked out “AutoPort Dearborn” and found this....could be a telltale sign what Ramp 59 means.

FoMoCo game of Clue?????? ??
