01/03/22 Build Week Chat

[Progress]

That’s the thing, I’m 3372 3/630 and while I haven’t confirmed I’m on a chip hold (dealer kind of just shrugged as far as an update) I’ve got nothing to show but the in production status. I think build order has no importance and it’s all allocation and EV state prioritization. But of course that’s just a guess because Ford would rather we all just break our fingers and keyboards hammering refresh while we wait for the build gods to show favor on us through some unknown decision process rather than just be up front with us about how the process works.

It looks to me that most of the MMEs in the 1/3 and 1/10 build weeks that are stuck "in production" are GTs and GTPEs, like you and me. I am in the 1/10 build week, 3565, 134/300 and have been in production, but no other update, since 1/15. The only GT that I have seen that is surely shipped is from GT_order_#1001. Several others are complaining about no updates.

If these numbers are batches:

If these numbers are batches:
003316 - 540 orders
003372 - 630 orders
003396 - 303 orders
003428 - 331 orders
That might explain why I haven't received an In Production/Estimated Delivery date yet: I'm 003428 which is the highest number of this group of four. Does anyone else have 003428 on their window sticker and, if so, do you have an In Production date/Estimated Delivery date in shop.ford.com?

James, I have a batch number of 3541, 63/300 and an estimated delivery date of 2/17.

Saw this in Grumpy thread to add to our assumptions and you know what it means when you assume.

" Ok, I finally was able to get hold of the dealership andgot some answers. Apparently, depite no updates from Ford (not even the 2021 to 2022 conversion email), mine has been built and is in shipping in Mexico. The guy says for cars that were ordered so long ago, when they converted from 2021 to 2022 model year, Fords system was dropping them off the update list. He claims I was a priority 1 in the system, and that it is fully built and on its way, not waiting for any parts. "

Could we be off the update list? But I did get the conversion letter.. Trying to make heads and tails of this as I see some 1/10 being built...
Never before in all my years ( and there are plenty ) have I memorized my VIN

You are not the only one. I too have memorized our VIN and sales code.

I know the VIN better than my wife’s birthday!!!

The only GT that I have seen that is surely shipped is from GT_order_#1001. Several others are complaining about no updates.

I received additional confirmation this morning when I stopped by my dealer this morning to fun-drive (not test drive) a cancelled-order GB GTPE. They ran a VVR and it said that my GT is now moving through Texas on it's way to KC.

That post was circa January 8th, and subsequently I went to In Production with an estimated delivery date (shop.ford.com) of 2-27. However, stuck In Production, at this point I believe my over/under delivery date is early March.

I just posted a survey: January 2022 production cars- some completed, other delayed, I am suspecting cars without blueCruise and shipping and with BlueCruise has a delay. My GTPE 3565 51/300 is in the delayed category.

I’m a Premium RWD ER with a build week of 1/3/22 and I’m stuck in limbo as well.

Interesting survey! I filled in my results.

This survey definitely makes it look like Blues Clues is the culprit.

Someone remind me- does the bottom date on the window sticker mean anything? I know that is when they “update” but sometimes the date changes and nothing else. Mine changed on 1/4, 1/14 and now 1/22.

003372, 460/630 Premium AWD ER 1/3 group, southern California. Stuck at "in production" since 1/5. Trying to make any sense or discern any pattern is futile. I think I will just have another beer.

 

[Bigfeets]

I don't think it is true. The VIN was assigned a long before 2022

Here's a list of all 2022MY MME VIN arranged by estimated build date entered in this forum's database.

Thats what was said on Grumpy Thread. Is anyone in the 1/3 build group's Vin last 5 digits over 02000???

My module page populated a couple of weeks ago. However, I checked back today and have a ton Of BCE modules but no PCM modules . Do the folks that have build emails show PCM modules on their page?

 

[ponydsp]

No PCM. Only BCE shown.
