04/04/22 Build Week Chat

Seems some folks located especially close to Kansas City might even be able to get their cars by the end of April if things go perfectly.

Hope that’s possible, ordered mine from a dealer an hour away from KC.

I came here to say the same thing. I wonder if they are going to send another email at a later date. I can definitely confirm this same email (for a different order) sent to me on 01/27 for my 02/21 build date came with a "Track my Order" button.

Did the "Track My Order" link from the older order take you to the reservations page or the shop.ford.com tracker? Maybe I was misunderstanding and they've never officially shared that link and we just know about the shop.ford tracker because of this forum?

EDIT: woops I see now the difference-- view order vs track my order. So I'm guessing that yes-- they changed the link and are no longer officially sending folks the shop.ford tracker...

With any luck, our window stickers should be appearing this week!!

For those wondering, I find the easiest way to check for a window sticker is to just enter your VIN at the end of the following link. For now it just shows "Please check back later" for me.

https://www.windowsticker.forddirect.com/windowsticker.pdf?vin=

There is also a link to "view your window sticker" when you login to the shop.ford tracker: https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking

I think the biggest questions heading into our build week is
1) Will we see any chip hold delays?
2) Will our cars have Park Assist or not? (excluding base Selects + GT's that didn't have it optioned to begin with) Many folks in the 3/14 build week seem to have had it removed from their vehicles (with no choice in the matter) in Ford's effort to get the cars built/shipped faster.

I still dont have my "custom order" number for the second link.

I think the only way to get your four digit order code is to contact your dealer. I got it in a document titled "preview order". I believe it used to be included in the encoded link provided with the build week confirmation. But at least for me the link provided in that email just took me back to the regular Ford Reservations page, which doesn't seem to have any info on the order code.

It's happening! Window sticker is up dated today. Batch 005093 245/299

ActivePark Assist is still listed... for now... I have my doubts because today it also disappeared from the Additional Features listed under my reservation status page.

FYI for anyone with a Window Sticker. The custom order number is at the bottom in the "Item" box. It should look like XX-XXXX. Those last 4 digits are your custom order number (edited because I saw you already have your custom order number)

Not sure if you're aware, but if you have a window sticker the custom order number is at the bottom in the "Item" box. It should look like XX-XXXX. Those last 4 digits are your custom order number

Oh good call pointing that out-- I had forgotten about that detail. I already have my four digit code from a dealer document but waiting for the window sticker is probably the only way to get it without having to reach out to the dealer. With that code and your VIN, it is possible to check out the tracker at https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking

My status there has never budged from "Order Confirmed" but now that I have a window sticker I expect that will change to "In Production" any time.
