I'm having flashbacks to ordering the iPhone 3G

Yeah, the website is a hot mess. I've been trying to access if for the last 20-30 minutes and it's just plain broken. Not even the "Live Chat" worked.

I'm guessing they host their site rather than AWS that could dynamically add capacity.

On the bright side the bitching about how bad Ford sucks can continue

Also seeing an error message on connected services page after clicking the adapter link from the main page.

Oops

Finally!!! Holy crap. It probably was about 43 refreshes (this is a lot considering their site sucks as there is a long load time too) and then connected via vpn on one of my machines to get the reserve link to show.

This didn’t mean the end as it took about 35 reserve attempts then.

Webserver appears to be overwhelmed. We successfully DDOS'd it
I can't reserve one, been trying since 8:30am EST.

I did 30 min and mine was 151. That escalated quickly.

I believe Ford uses GCP (Google cloud) these days. Not like automotive is exactly known for writing good software, especially especially for new things like cloud connectivity. That goes doubly true for legacy automotive.

I’m just shocked the site is getting overloaded by something like this. I guess I will continue to keep smashing refresh

Me too. Given the incredibly successful OTA and general communications strategies of the elite Ford programming team, I really expected their system to handle this event. better. Shocking, I say.

I try to load the site, select my Mach E, and nothing. Site must be having issues.

He’s dead, Jim.

Same. System is overloaded

Got in and reserved. But no econfirmation yet

I was able to order mine through the fordpass app under connected services

Thanks. When I open Connective Services in the App it jumped to useless screen showing supported payments. So, I updated the FordPass app, still no luck.

IO thought it was just me....and I have two of these to order....looks like it's gonna be awhile.

Well this is frustrating. I’ve tried 20-30 times each by both ford pass app on the phone and a computer web browser. ?
