Finally I can see modules listed. 7254 330/660.

How did you see the modules? I am 7254 309/660 and have yet to see them. Maybe I am doing something wrong, do you have to download the info into the Ford file to see them? I can't get that to work.

No on the site for mods - it will just be "nothing" and then one day, magically, it will be a very long list of numbers. The file you download is, I think, a proprietary file used for ford service tech stuff.

Ok thanks. I thought I was doing something wrong.

https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking is now working for me - still in production
https://www.ordertrack.app/order says I've been in production 3 days and 13 hours.
Has "Time in Status (Estimated)" 32 days and 15 hours.
Anybody have a Time in Status (Estimated) value like that?

johnh...

Yes:

Time in Status (Actual) - 52 days and 13 hours
Time in Status (Estimated) - 32 days and 15 hours
Longest Wait - 115 days and 1 hour
Similar Vehicles in Status - 48

It's quite strange to me that my actual is significantly longer than the estimated, but I've been in an "In Production" status since I got my build date way back in early June. I see other batch 7190 vehicles moving along, so hopefully I get a "built" status and EDD sometime today or this weekend.

Question for the ones that have their car completed. Does it show anything about the shipping info in any of the Ford websites?

On the Ford reservation page the top says shipping in progress while the bottom says shipped. If I go to the order tracker site the top says in transit, but on the Ford "track your vehicle" site shows the built icon isn't checked off. I haven't received any emails from Ford.

Everything is all over the place. Why is this so complicated ? lol

The tracking site, via vin/on, not the email log in "my reservations" for me moves back and forth since I got modulus populated - seems a day or 2 after it settles down and stays consistent.

Mine is RAIL - so I do not think it gets any detailed shipping / tracking info unless I call and bug the dealer... I could be wrong about that...

For a complete timeline:

Scheduled for Production Week of 7/18/22 then pushed to 7/25/22 (corresponded with the battery terminal recall) I forgot when I saw that I even HAD a Production week date given, because I never got an update email. The only email's I got from ford were about the change in range estimation (Feb.March) one I think in April about who knows what, it just said "a change" - no timeline or production info.

Then silence for a few months when I decided to randomly check on my reservation I saw the July date, this was in June sometime - again no email to me telling me I was given a production date.

Then, Tuesday 7/26 late PM I saw the mods populate, no change in "status"
The next day 7/27 some of the tracking sites, and my reservation page listed "built" - no email - estimated delivery range showed up only on "my reservations" tracking page
Last night 7/28 late PM - I got an email indicating it was built and then a separate email 30min later that it was shipped. And estimated delivery date now showing on tracker and my reservations

Tracking sites all now seem to be settled and not changing on refresh/reload as shipped w/ estimated range.

The sites are all a little finicky - seems the most "real time" thing to watch is the activation of the mods. It seems that is a fairly late/last stage process in building the car.

Did the "recall" over the fused battery terminal thing ever get fixed?

Weird that mine is showing eta of 8/19-8/26, yet was built on Monday and still has not shipped from back 7133

From what I can tell, it’s just a big blindspot once your vehicle ships with the Ford tracking. Some other threads talk about tracking the railcar or convoy if you get extra detail from the dealership and go to certain sites, but with the details you get from Ford, there’s nothing else for us until it arrives at the dealership. The good news is we at least get an estimate for delivery, which is way more than we had for months from Ford waiting for a build week… They got us used to a lack of communication.

Inceptions edition? Call Ford, they may tell you "You already have your car, look outside"

Oops meant 8/19-8/26, brain is still in July mode. Oopsies.

Texted the guy from my dealer and he send me this attachment. Yay!!!! Progress ?

Now I'm trying to figure out what to do with this new information. ?

Has anyone's Estimated Delivery dates disappeared from the reservation page after showing up? Mine showed 8/23-8/28 earlier this week, but now just shows "Estimated Delivery - ".

All of the sites we've been furiously checking over the past week all still say "Shipped" so I'm going to assume that's the case....

 

[Hibtone]

I decided to pester Ford chat since others from my batch (7172) have shipped while mine languishes in production. They gave me an estimate delivery of 9/3 - 9/9. Sounds good to me. I hope it holds up.

I had a post written a bout the general shipped date and delivery range, and how a 1 mo time seemed long, even considering constraints - but just assuming the dates on the ETA there, it was "shipped" Jul 28- but expected to sit there until 9-1 and then get going.

I think with that info, you can use some of the linked rail info to track it. I think you have to call and use their automated system- I pass the warning of, "do not talk to a live operator, if it ever says xfering to live -hangup" because- we are using this system as "consumers" and that's not what its meant for and it could tick someone off where they restrict access more... or something I assume.

This would be a "screen grab" from Ford VVR (Vehicle Visibility Report) that is accessible by Ford dealers. Apparently, some dealers won't look, some will look but not share, some will share, and as in your case give all info to the end user. BTW, Lecheria is the Kansas City Southern rail ramp near the Cuautitlan factory, next "checkpoint"... Laredo border crossing. Thanks for sharing.
