Just coming over from the 4/11 build week. my GT has been "in production" going on 7 weeks now. Most of our non-GTs have long since shipped, but anything GT post 4/4 build week is a complete toss up whether it will be shipped out or just sit on the lot. They've driven it around the lot a few days in a row now and even charged it for 30 minutes for some reason yesterday according to fordpass. Still no news whatsoever and it looks like subsequent build weeks are getting held up too.
Could this be related to the new part number for the HVBJB on a thread that's going on here? Could they be holding up the line to use the new part? Pure speculation, but that would be a good hold.

I show as built and, as of today, shipped! At least, according to the shop.ford.com order tracker. Unfortunately, ETA to NorCal is end of July. Seems like a long time to be in transit — I remember that time from factory to dealer used to be 4 to 5 weeks once shipped for other people on this forum. Are there new delays?

Wouldn't that part affect all models? ?

Just saw that my vehicle status finally moved to Shipped. I know that palsapp is no longer working for all to trace shipping details. Do we have any other such tools to track this info?

No official word yet, but I assume so. Dev_sec_ops monitored the part numbers and this new one popped up last week. But no one knows if that is really the fix. But a new part number half way through the model year is definitely something to obsess about, something we do really well here. ?

Guys and gals, as someone who has taken delivery of two MMEs, I can tell you this: 1) The Ford tracker is very unreliable. Don't trust it. 2) Your dealership has little, if any, viable information on the status of your car. 3) The best indication of the car's status will be when it is offloaded from the first train and put on a truck in Kansas City (for East Coast deliveries) to transfer to the second train. 4) The chip shortage still persists, but you will not know if it is affecting your delivery or not. 5) Think of it as a surprise birthday gift. You'll never know for sure when you'll get your car until it shows up at the dealer. Don't sweat it. 6) (bonus advice) Run, do not walk, to your dealer to pick up your car once it arrives. Some dealers have been known to sell the car out from underneath you if you wait more than a day or two to pick it up. 7) I want my darn new 2022 MME! Oops. ;)
Thanks for that insight, good to know. Has the module activation been known to be unreliable too?

Same here still, but as the saying goes, misery loves company! Although I’d rather we were just shipped… lol

If the line truly was stopped to ensure we get the new part in our cars then I’m totally fine waiting in that case haha. Hopefully that’s what’s going on and not a chip hold.

Yes, I hope our cars will be getting the new HVBJB.
Still no modules for me.
