05/23/22 Build Week Chat

[Gold]

How did you get your app to activate? Mine won't allow that until I complete the purchase - which will be by monthend I hope. My Chat latest shows mine in Richards-Gebauer (SW KC) on Ramp 6. Seems like that is a switching yard, and my ETA still shows June 25.

Someone at the factory must have accepted the on screen. However, the downside to activating, I lose some time with 36 month trial.

Still no modules for me. Batch 6103 199/300.
But, hopefully things are starting to move again so hoping this week for the build!

Yeah still no modules for me either, 24/300 batch 6103 but at least things are moving again. If everything is back to 100% I'd guess our cars will get built in the next day or two, maybe even today if we're really lucky. They've got some serious catching up to do. They quit pushing back the dates for the 6/13 build group, so it sounds like Ford is confident they can get through the rest of 5/23, all of 5/30 and start on 6/13s by the end of this week. We'll see...

Yes, I'm hoping everyone in 5/23 will be built this week. I'm concerned with a post in another thread:

Apparently the cars are getting held up in Kansas City. One person posted due to the haulers increased fuel expenses....Hopefully Ford will help with these issues

Haha yeah I'm not going to be able to relax until I'm driving away from the dealership. Still a bunch of hurdles to clear.

I just got modules too! FordPass now gives me the option to activate, but nothing else has changed but finally the logjam has been cleared! I'm temped to try the activation just so I have more info but is it bad to do other than losing the 2 months of free trials? (assuming someone even accepts the prompt).

Weird... 11/300, same batch, but no modules. Maybe they count backwards, or maybe the number out of 300 is more of a track keeping thing than an order to be built in. Or maybe with this multi-week delay, the order is all messed up and they're just doing it as they can. Either way, if you have them, the rest of us in 6103 can't be too far behind, I hope!

I tried activating my 2021 several times after the modules showed up online. Each time, after one or two minutes, the FordPass app would indicate that a response hadn't been received from the car within the allotted time and the activation process ended. My 2021 didn't get activated in FordPass until I took delivery and could respond from inside the car myself. People make different claims about what's possible as far as early activation in FordPass goes. Some of that may need to be taken with a grain of salt, in my opinion.,

I have a build in the 5/16 week too and mine was early in the batch but tons of people who had batch numbers behind me got their modules first. Idk if it has to do with model or options or if it’s all random. I wouldn’t worry about it. I bet you’ll get your modules within a day or two.

Also out of that build week there’s at least 3 FL cars. I ordered from the dealer so didn’t have an ETA. Others that got modules first still shipped at the same time. It doesn’t seem like there was any hold up in KC. ETA is 6/26-7/2 and it’s on a train in TN as of this morning.

I really wish Ford would do a better job communicating what the holdup is. If this holdup is indeed for the new HVBJB, I'd be much more patient. But if I knew this was just an ordinary chip hold or parts shortage, I'd save myself another 2+ months of hair pulling and just find one on a lot at this point. My wife's car has to go back in 3 weeks (lease) so every week that passes with no Mach-E movement is another week of figuring out transportation for her. My dealer has been great, but I'm seriously considering shopping lot cars. There's 2 within a few hours of me that are identical to our build.

In the same boat here sort of, my Jeep was unfortunately totaled in a freak low speed accident, not my fault and definitely didn't anticipate it, thought I'd just be dealing with a week or two of repairs. I'm now sitting here with a rental car for 2 months+ waiting on my MME (I'm in the 5/30 group). Took my husbands F-150 in for service last week and just longingly stared at the 12-15 MMEs they had just sitting on the lot. I really want my GTPE with no ADM which my dealer has agreed to...it's the only thing keeping me from just buying something else. Agreed with being fine with the HVBJB fix, just give us something, even a general update. It looks like some people might be getting some movement with the 5/23 week with some posts today though? Just overall hopeful.

Sorry to hear about your stressful situation too! Yeah, seeing the factory making progress finally after almost 3 weeks is a big relief.

I can't check the numbers on my mobile device, but I have modules! 11/300, batch 6103.

Happened some time within the past three hours. Go, factory, go!

 

[conical7134]

Batch 6103 39/300 finally showing modules. With the news about the HVBJB recall it seems like we dodged a bullet despite the delay in build dates.
