1/24 Build Week Gang

[DanL_MN]

Stopped at my dealer yesterday. They said the location has updated to "Internati Missouri". The dealer's system was saying expected delivery of 5/13. Hopefully this holds true. 5/13/2021 was the day I ordered my ME. Maybe it will be my one year order anniversary present to myself.

On a separate note, it sure would be a nice gesture for Ford to compensate people that have stuck with their order and had to wait more than twice as long as the expectations Ford set (of 24+ weeks) a year ago. As the saying goes, "under promise, over deliver". If the delivery estimate would have been a more conservative, but accurate 52+ weeks, I'm sure I would have waited to place an order as the vehicle I had was just fine and did not need to be upgraded.

I'll update on more information, which I hope is soon!

My order just changed from 'picked' to 'paired' with a destination of my dealer (in south central WI). Don't know what that means for progress, but again, it's something...

My order on Thursday was marked as delivered in Birmingham, MO, was in KC the day before per Ford customer service. Was excited progress was happening. But.. my delivery date window just changed from 5/5-5/11 to 6/8-6/12.

Again very disappointing, not sure Ford has been in business for 100+ years with such inefficiency. I'm getting quite unexcited for this car. I know I'll love it but 11 months is insane

I just checked, I can literally walk to Missouri in 15 days (ok without a break, but still) , so it makes perfect sense for the car to get here in 30+ days

Ford is extremely conservative with that final updated estimate - you'll get it before then.

In the same boat with the declining excitement of getting this car. I will be at 12 months wait time in one more week. Ford is really letting their customers down with very inaccurate expectations and communications regarding build time and delivery dates.

Chatted with Ford Chat, looks like another delay. Its been shipped since 4/14, it arrived in Laredo, TX 5/2. Had ETA of 5/8-5/14. Ford chat says its still in Laredo, TX and ETA of 6/14 :-(

Edit: Received a email just now from Ford, previous estimated delivery range of May 8, 2022, and May 14, 2022, has been updated to between June 8, 2022, and June 14, 2022.

via chat just now, I guess mine is on Jack Cooper Transport and my delivery week ETA is now next week (bumped a week yet again....).

My last communicated delivery date was 5/13. Ironic as that would be my 1-year order anniversary. Early this week, I learned that my ME was moved from Internati*, MO to Richards Gebaur, MO. I have read this is where Jack Cooper is. Palsapp states that the vehicle status is 'picked', but many of the other fields are still 'null'.

Last night I received an email from Ford stating; "To ensure your complete satisfaction, we will require additional time before your 2022 Mustang Mach-E Premium is delivered ...". I wish Ford would just say that it is taking more time than anticipated for delivery, rather than making it sound like every one of these delays over the last year are for my complete satisfaction. I did end up sending another email to Ford's executive office stating that if this was really for my satisfaction, there would be additional compensation for Ford missing ALL of the expectations they have set from the get go. Doubt anything will come of it though.

Long story short, I have now been delayed again until 5/21 - 5/27.

I have moved to 'Dispatched' on palapp/ordertrack.app at 9:36 this morning on a truck with Jack Cooper Transport. Its destination in both places is listed as my dealer. Could it make it by tonight or even tomorrow?? I'm about 8 hours away via Google Maps.

It's in!! I was actually on my way to a small conference at a university 2 hours away tonight after school, and I actually passed the car carrier hauling it about 1.5 hours away. Full truck of F150s and my Mach-E hanging out on the bottom at the back. I literally said to the person I was riding with, "That's my car!".

Come home from the conference tonight, and what do I see sitting in the parking lot of my dealer?
