1/17/22 Build Week Chat

Just got my built notification!!! Estimated Delivery of Mar 28-Apr 3!!!!!

Congratulations! That sounds like a very reasonable estimate of delivery given that your destination in Kansas. Typically, it takes 10-14 days after shipped email to get delivered in Kansas City.

Status changed to Delivered (Argentine Ramp) on Palsapp on Mar 01 2022. The estimated delivery date on the Ford tracker doesn't show anymore (same as others).

it took about 2 weeks to get mine (in the SF Bay Area) after it arrived on Argentine Ramp

Ah, that's great to know! This was actually the biggest question in my head at this point as I knew it's gonna be radio silence from here. Thanks for sharing the timeline for your experience!

Got an email last night that our vehicle has been built with an updated delivery window of March 4-10!

New email yesterday, delivery window updated to March 21-27

Just received an email from Ford that said my Premium Mach-E ER has been built as of 3/5. It went into production on 1/24. Estimated delivery is April 9-15. I ordered it on April 27 of 21. Even though we were told we would be a priority when that 21 order was converted to a 22 it does not seem that that happened only that it went in with everyone else ordering in Oct of 21. Only time will tell if this estimate is true but right now it is almost 2 months before the prior June 8, 22 delivery date.

Their process is nearly impossible to decipher. I got my built email on 2/25 but my delivery ETA stayed at 5/31. On 2/26, my delivery ETA moved to 3/31. Now the delivery ETA is gone from the order tracking status page (just like everyone else's) but is back to 5/31 on the ford.com account reservations page. Still no shipping email.

If my car was built on 2/25 and my delivery ETA is truly 5/31, what they heck are they doing for 3+ months?!! I am in San Antonio so it's not like they need to ship it to Alaska...

I am left wondering if this is all about optimizing logistics capacity (trains, trucks, personnel) and the EV states have an advantage because Ford MUST sell the right mix of electrified vehicles to those states (eg they can't ship a bronco or F150 until they have shipped enough Mach-E's). Unfortunately, Texas is not an EV state (and probably bottom of the list for other environmentally-friendly programs). Purely speculation on my part...

My car was built on Jan 31 and had a ship date of Feb 7th. Took 10 days or so to get to KC. Now being shuffled about. Probably one more month till I get it as it is being shipped to Alaska. If I recall correctly someone from Texas who’s vehicle shipped the same date as mine received theirs already so hope for the best and it may be there sooner than the ETA.

I feel for you. Best of luck with the logistics to Alaska! if it takes them 3 months from build to ship mine just north of the Mexico border, I can't imagine what awaits you...

It’s probably on a chip hold to complete the last few components before Ford can ship it to your dealer.

I guess that would explain it but it's weird that they would wait to send me the "built email" (2/25) more than month after my production date (1/22) versus waiting until all of the parts were installed. The Ford works in mysterious ways LOL...

Yes, it doesn't make sense but that's the exact same boat lots of others are in.

Dang it… new email from ford tonight saying my delivery window is no longer Mar 28-Apr 3. It’s now May 25-31… Just when I had some hope.

Built email received today. Email states March 30-April 5th delivery. The Ford tracker is still blank for delivery.
