Chip hold My22 & My23

[Blackout150]

I haven't received a email from Ford yet, but the tracker says "built". Ford Chat says the truck is still on chip hold and the estimated delivery is 28th October.

That’s good news

Blackout, our trucks must be parked together, behind the dumpsters in Row ZZZ!

I think mine is back there too.

You will probably be getting an email from ford tomorrow. Same thing happened to me.

Yeah, mine is hanging out with yours as well.

I have looked at the spreadsheet but nothing jumps out as heated steering wheel, what is the modules group?

I'm not convinced that the ForScan modules list is complete, since it doesn't include many components that seem like they should have a dedicated module (e.g. Onboard Scales). Perhaps the ForScan list is just the modules that can be programmed for different settings?

Also mine.....

Gentlemen,
I am very happy to hear the good news for some of you, for the rest of us not so much. I had very long conversations with Ford Marketing and the dealer today, did not gain any insight on the completion of my build but did get some good information. Being on chip hold means absolutely nothing, it could be a missing tire air valve cover to a complete engine, once something is missing no matter what it is you are placed under chip hold. Not one of the 5 individuals 3 of which are at the managerial level have any clue as to how and to which vehicle is selected for missing parts that arrive at the plant to applied to nor when any additional "AKA" chips will arrive. Seems like a lottery and you just have to be very lucky if your vehicle is selected. All of the trackers we continually check every day, contacting chat or your dealer are a complete waste of time as well. They all look at the same VVR which has not been updated since August 10th (funny - my build date) and none of them could give me a date for the next VVR update with any confidence. Very long and frustrating story short, don't hold your breath and anything you are told is just smoke and mirrors. At some point our trucks will show up at the dealer, just the manufacturer and the dealer that is selling them has absolutely no clue when. Just don't forget to make your monthly payment on time or they'll come get your truck and cannibalize the parts for MY23.
Good Luck Everybody

Like I said above - thanks for confirming!

The trucks that are on "chip hold" may very well be on "not-quite-chip-hold" hold... Meaning it could be wiper motors, badges, etc. I don't think Ford differentiates between chip-hold and other-parts-hold (I may be wrong).

Not all modules will be populated in as-built if they are not flashed on the line. Some modules are shipped with software loaded and do not show up on this list.

Some of you are forgetting some if not all these chips are tied to a VIN. They just can't put in any old chip that they have.

Curious as to what the oldest waiting are at this point. Im not on many other threads so I'm not sure where my 8/8 build week falls in line. 2 months seems a crazy wait after already waiting 2 months so far.

There are handfuls of us waiting for an unacceptable amount of time. I’m an October 21 order…1/17 blend 3/3 build and parked ever since. I know of a handful of ‘21 orders rolled over to ‘22 without rigs as well.

Tremor or platinum? Not that there’s an excuse, just curious
