01/03/22 Build Week Chat

Called my dealer. He says the car is still there in Mexico. Probably goes through some inspections. He says that the ETD on his site is 2/2, although on shop.ford it is 2/25

Probably somewhere in between

I also am getting a RT1AWD

Same batch ?

I wonder if the plant's workforce is being hit hard by omicron, seems like they are already running behind, at least as far as we can tell from this side (the situation might be different on the ground, who knows).

I guess I shoulda shut my damn mouth, I just got an email saying my car is built along with an ETA (Feb 26-March 4, NorCal). All of this is extra weird because the tracker still shows "in production" and there is nothing in my modules page.

interesting… hopefully Ford is quoting worst case scenario arrival dates. Would be real nice to see the car show up a week early. Will call my dealer in a week and see what he says.

On an unrelated note, for someone with good credit, what should I expect to get as far as an interest rate? I plan on walking in with financing set up the day I arrive.

Oh boy, the OP has his first estimated delivery date: 2-27-2022!

Now shows "In Production" 1-13-2022. No modules yet. This info from shop.ford.com.

Do we know historically how this worked? It’s possible that the in production week starts with parts gathering, which is why they are physically built the next week.

In my Ford account I now see that Sync4 was updated yesterday.

Your SYNC system (SYNC4 v4.0.21297) is up to date.

I think the next phase for us is tracking our cars by Rail
.. I am schedule for RA21 Item #24-xx01 on window sticker....

 

[PupSideDown]

I think I need to lose internet at my house for a while. I can't stop refreshing shop.ford trying to get a delivery date to show up!

Same. When I check the Ford site it still says 'In Production'. My window sticker says Batch 003316 279/540. When I check the modules I get a gigantic list of over 900 modules. Most modules are populated in all 3 columns, some are populated in 2 of 3 columns, and a few in 1 of 3 columns. Unclear if all modules need to be populated in all 3 columns to be completely built. Glad to see my car is being built.

We're build batch twins; although you're 30 ahead of me (279 vs my 309). It's got to be getting close, as you can see others are already starting to get their built emails.

Update, my dealer just texted me that my car is production at the plant with an estimated delivery of 2/19-2/25 Didn't have the heart to tell him that I knew that 2 days ago thanks to all this info on the forum...and Ford's own website.

Received an email from Ford that my vehicle has been built. Estimated delivery date between 02/10/2022 and 02/16/2022. When use the Ford vehicle tracker, it still shows in production but when I log in to my account and select reservations and orders, it shows it as built and gives an estimated delivery date matching my email.
Grabber Blue GTPE
Ordered 09/11

 

[Free-Roaming]

I'm joining this "Hurry up and wait" club. The Ford tracking page shows my order with an Estimated Delivery date on 02/08/2022, which seems unlikely since the "Built" status still shows no date.

Order group: 3316
326/540
