If I recall that was me who was 3 cars ahead in the same batch. Only thing I can think of to account for this is dealer allocation but even that is suspect since @NewGuy and I ordered the same car from the same dealer at the same time and are in this build week but I think I may be ahead. Maybe color is a factor? Maybe it’s just random (though seems unlikely).
If that is the case, somebody done F'ed up with the week of 4/18 builds then. They probably don't know how to fix the problem because the vehicles were built beyond the point that they could easily access/fix the issue without tearing apart the car. I could be talking out my arse, but at this point it might be a plausible explanation. The lack of communication has made be cynical.
No updates for me. (5303 premium ER AWD) I am past ready for a new car now though: I rotated the tires on the car this is replacing last week and a couple jack spots bent due to rust. My one positive is that I ordered mine last Aug with summer tires - I was afraid that I might have to drive it home on a snowy day! That shouldn’t be a problem now.
I can view my sticker from alternate means, it struck me as odd that all of a sudden the link from shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracker or what ever the link from the email send me to no longer works to get window sticker. I am perplexed that it seems that all of a sudden that week 4/11 and 4/18 builds seem to have issues seeing a normal progression or the appearence of a deviation in 'normalcy' . I know there were vehicles in the past with chip holds, glass issues, seat belt issues.
Oh yeah, those were the days!!! Had double the miles of track, didn't have to compete with containers of cheap Chinese consumer goods and fuels.In 1913 it took 93 minutes to assemble the Model T and cars shipped out within 24 hours. And, I don’t think it took two months to ship to NY or California.?. Ford could be doing a lot better today. They are moving cars cheap and not fast.
I have the exact same note from my dealer.
Yes, I received an email tonight at 9:43pm PST that my 380/450 for Batch 5303 has been built! Hopefully you receive an email soon too. Estimated delivery is a range in late June. Woohoo!
How exciting!!!! Congrats! I placed my order on 1/13/22 with the in production date at 4/19/22 so hopefully I am just a few days behind you..... Fingers crossed!Batch 5303 (380/450) here and I just received an email from Ford at 9:43pm PST that my Mach-E has been BUILT! Hope all you other 5303s are as excited as me and received that email. The ship time is a bit brutal but hoping they are adding in a cushion to pleasantly surprise us all.
here is my current tracker too. FYI my window sticker is still not showing up but I saved it originally.
The shop.ford tracker always seems to take a 1/2 day to a day to catch up. Ordertracker's 'Awaiting shipment" is the same as "Built". Likewise, when Ordertracker switches you to "In Transit" that's the same as shop.ford's "Shipped"
So late last night Ford's order tracker briefly said "Built"... now is just says "in production".
