04/25 Build Week gang group

[Bt3]

I got the same thing. When I tried to access Ford's website it was not working. Looks like some sort of bug occurred. Classic Ford software.

I had the same thing happen where Ford sent me the same email about a half hour ago. Logged on, nothing changed. Called the dealer and they didn't see any difference on their end. They thought it was odd but think I might get an update later this week if it's truly scheduled for production.

Thought I saw somewhere that there is not production scheduling this week (for March production). Is that correct?

Wow - that is shockingly fast turn-around.

I was shocked as well. I have been seeing other people's posts that have been waiting for a year or more. I just finished chatting with Ford customer support and they gave me the information along with my VIN.

OOOOMMMMMMMGGGGGGGG, this is taking forever! And checking my status at Ford.com 37 times per day doesn't seem to be speeding it up any! ?

I still check 37 times a day myself even though I have the build date and VIN!

Called my dealer today to see if my order was affected by the active park assist kit. Was told it wasn't but my build week got pushed a week to May 2 ? no email stating that yet though.

Yep....saw this last Friday(Plants Scheduling) and automatically said "FUDGE" our group will be pushed to 5/2 build week. Ohhh well let's keep all of our fingers crossed that we will see our orders by the end of June.
But hey....I'm satisfied for now?. I bought a cancelled order from my dealership being a Premium ER RWD with all the bells and whistles. LOVE THE CAR and people going Lady Gaga over the Pony. Will be selling this Pony I have now and can't wait for my GTPE fully loaded Pony to come on in.
I was able to test drive a GTPE at a local dealership and....WOW WOW WOW. What a beast and awesome ride. The Premium drives phenomenal....wish Ford would put wider tires on all Premium models. Tires at 225 is too narrow for a 5,000 lb car and in windy conditions the car sways quite a bit. The car needs at least 245 on the Pony. But hey I get it...it's all bout gaining more range. Look at the California Route 1..no power seats, no power lift gate and better aerodynamic rims(that look awful?) , but that's why CR1's are rated over a 300 mile range.
So here are some pics of my Pre-Pony...named her "Appetizer". Will name the GTPE "Ginuwine", first time I've ever named a car...had to. Shot, best looking EV by far!! Good luck Pony lovers.
Also added the plants scheduling and they do not have a 04/25 build week schelduled.

That's because they've already fully scheduled all of April-- they only list the weeks they are currently scheduling. With that said, you are probably right that lots of folks are going to get pushed out of 4/25. The delays seen in the 3/7, 3/14, and 3/21 build weeks are not great.

My dealer just emailed me that Ford building my Mach-E Premium w/"Active park kit" instead of "active park assist" for a $375 credit? They told me I can buy it later. Anyone else hearing this and what are your thoughts?

There are a couple other threads discussing the details here and here

Are you scheduled for the week of 4/25? If so, this is the first I've heard of Ford forcing this change on Job 1 cars too (Job 2 isn't supposed to start until May 2nd at the earliest, and I assume it could get pushed back).

Don't know the full details but been hearing in other threads and YouTube videos that Ford is selling cars without car chips. For instance...no heated seats, no heated steering wheel, no active park assist, etc. Now the car will be safe to drive and Ford is releasing these orders to keep things moving and later down the road they will install the missing chips....but the big question is. Are they reducing the price of the car with the missing added features? I'm pretty confident Ford will and thinking we can decide on getting those missing chips added with the added price when available. We will see and hoping the for the best!!

Thank you I will check out the thread!
