I have been "In Production" since 4/14. Was told that estimated date for build completed is May 22-28. Hard to believe it will take 6 weeks for the car to be built.

I was 4/12. Ford chat said May 29th- Jun 04 to West Coast Canada. Maybe we’re on the same Train. Can’t wait to drive it, gas is $2.11a litre here. Like $8 a gallon if Can Dollars were at par with USD.

Ford Chat verified for me.

Car Built 5/4.
In transit.
Location is Ramp 5J, Lecheria Cuap, EM.
Shipped Rail - Railcar # KCS 008157. ETA Jun-14-2022.

Premium - EAWD - Batch 5272 290/330
So, people in my batch before and after me are built with the same spec. Maybe they ran out of Dark Matter Grey paint? This plant has been around since the 1960’s. I’m not envisioning a state of the art Giga plant. I imagine lost cars sitting around with workers eating lunch in them and playing the B&O radio on breaks. ~Build Batch 5272 281/330~

Man if you are building thousands of cars a month, and you think you can chillax in a brand new Grabber Blue GTPE for an extended lunch break?….

Was going to come here and ask when I should expect "in production" to transition to "built," for my 4/14 build date, and it seems late May. Then, what, sixish weeks for delivery?

Got the same email overnight.

It's interesting that this new news is showing up differently in different places. Here's what I see, so those who didn't get an email know what they're looking for...

Ford.com account - Across the top it still says "In Production, In Progress". But below that it shows as "Built, Estimated Delivery 7/1/2022 - 7/7/2022"

Shop.Ford.com - No change

Ordertracker.app - Across the top, it now shows as "Awaiting shipment"

Modules - I don't see any change there.
Got the shipped email early this morning.

I’ll say that the first indication I had that it shipped was the ordertracker site. That changed to In Transit last night about six hours before the email arrived.

My account on ford.com reflects this update as well. The shop.ford site is not able to bring anything up, as is often the case.

Now to start stalking the train lines like I’m Butch Cassidy.

What’s your updated ETA now? End of June to early July? Guessing no longer mid May unfortunately.

I’ve become addicted to tracking my car for some reason. I saw that my Dealership had a dealer order CA R1 same build week as me. Except this one went into production 11 Apr, 12 Apr. Built and shipped. It has a delivery date of May 26- Jun 01. Interesting thing is in Ordertrack.app it shows the exact same in Transit. No additional rail info as my order. I’m thinking we may all be sitting on a train together to chug up the Coast with a big delivery? Hopefully before the 8 weeks they are estimating for my Mach E? Good luck to everyone!

OrderTrack doesn't know anything specific about a car's shipping status (location, shipment group, etc.) other then what it scrapes from the shop.ford tracker and Pallsapp. After it is shipped (in transit) the only info it provides is updates on it transiting through Kansas City (Pallsapp/shipping information section).

My dealer just shared with me the tracking sheet for my vehicle and one they just got. The one they just got took 29 days to go from "shipped" to arrival at the dealer in NJ. Mine is projecting at 55-61 days. I wonder if that's just a conservative estimate or if it's taking that much longer to make the trek.
