🗺 HVBJB Replacement – Map – Time To Repair (by Dealer)

[DevSecOps]

Preface:

I decided to create an interactive map due to the number of posts about time to repair and also the number of DM's I get from people asking where they should take their car for repair.

Data collection:

The data that was used to make this map was from my DMs with people. I started collecting dealer information about 45 days ago. All SSN and SVS data before that I do not have dealer information for. If you see your dealership in grey, I probably added you but you never told me "it's done" so I had no way to calculate the time of repair. No public posts are included and of course there's a lot more dealerships that have done these repairs. Again, this is just those who reached out to me directly. Please help contribute data.

Contribute to the map:

If you have data to add to this map please help and fill out this form. No personal information or VINs are collected. Forum username is to ensure I don't have duplicates and you aren't some Tesla troll. Or you could just post in this thread with your dealer and time of repair as an alternative.

I am no longer adding to the map as of 09/26/23

How to see the map:

As of 09/26/23 the map is no longer interactive.

Isn't this all relative to a point in time? So without that it's going to be all over the place?

If I'm at my dealership today, he might have the part but no mechanic for 2 weeks.
Or, he has the mechanic, but the part is backordered.
Or, it's a vastly different answer in August vs. September or later.

Not sure if it's good or bad there's been no reports from Florida lol

Well of course it is. But there's 2 questions that I get asked regularly one of which is; Where have other people had replacements done? The other is; How long did it take that dealership?

I can't account for sinkholes, wildfires, staff shortages or anything else, but I can show historical data. It's all worth it's grain of salt, but if we show one location historically taking much longer than another, within the same geo region, then I would advise people to go to the faster location.

There are two, I just don't have the completion date to calculate time. They are the grey locations.

My servicing dealer in St. Pete, which is a very large Ford dealer, said they had to send one repair to someone else cause they didn't have the tie-downs or something, but I guess they have them now.

It’s funny. The two dealers closest to me are not on the map. One, I hate with a passion. The other I dislike heavily. Looks like neither of them has done a replacement, or at least not for anyone on the forum. That’s kind of good Since I don’t like them. ??

Soon, we may need a filter for "Successful" or "3 Stooges"

I'm adding notes if you click on them and I just started categorizing by RWD/AWD/GT/GTPE as well because the parts are different depending on the type of motor.
