I do Chat normally Mon and Fri
I got nothing from Chat when I tried. What's your secret or do you think they are just making it up which is why it moves so much?

Per my most recent

“The movement is based on what’s being built that week”

Maybe idk….

If your asking what I say to get my dates

I alway say “Can I please get a update on my Mach E order”

I’ve always had information given sometimes I’ll get delivery estimates also but not all the time

I'm batch 9294, build 132 out of 691. Select AWD, have an invoiced date of 11/3 but still showing production as week of 11/14. Sounds like not just GT's are getting early stickers. Last chat with Ford showed an estimated delivery to Seattle of 12/8 - 12/14, which seems really optimistic but I'm here for it

So I am confused and hoping someone can help me. A week ago I chatted with Ford.com and the nice lady gave me a Build Day of 11/14 and an ETA delivery 12/23. I was very excited for this news and checked daily for a window sticker. Since I still do not have a window sticker, I chatting just now to see if my production date possibly changed. However, this chat person only said the vehicle is "in production now" but could not tell me why a window sticker has not been made available. I even asked her flat out is my vehicle being built a week early.... But she could only give me the coined company responses to go to my dealership. I started to wonder if she is even looking into the data at all since my reservation page has said "in production" for awhile (isn't that normal too).

So.... can the vehicle actually be being built without a window sticker? I just want to make sure the actual build day hasn't slipped, but now don't know what to believe as according to her it appears to have moved up??? Personally, I think I got ahold of a less than helpful chat person as she also kept on asking if that was all I needed.

I first saw my window sticker on 11/2 and I first saw modules populate today on 11/7. I imagine the answer to your question is "no," the car will not begin being built until a window sticker is produced. However, I do not know that to be a fact.

When Ford chat gives us a “build date,” is that the start or end of the build process? Also, does anyone know about how long it takes to produce a vehicle from start to finish?

It's the possible start date.

You probably have a better chance of winning the Powerball lottery then being able to pinpoint an exact build length....

For the 10/10 build group, our scheduled to shipped timeframe was anywhere from 4 to 23 days with an average range of 10.7 days.

Is there anyone in here that can give us a run down on what we should be seeing this week and starting next week? In the sense of the following, I have heard but don't understand...

- Window Stickers (Heard we will get those at least a week prior to production)
- Modules (Heard these get filled in when the production starts but not sure 100% what these can show us or what they do for us right now)
- Batch (Don't understand what this is and what it can do to help us)

Also has anyone received any stickers yet that is a Premium or anything other than a GT/GTE/GTP

Thank you

My production date is 11/17, I’ll just wait and see what happens. When I was tracking my 22 Select, they were spot off with production week, day of production, and a month earlier delivery than the estimated delivery. I know a lot of people complain about Fords ordering process, but my only order so far from Ford was nothing but good. 2 times a charm?

  1. Window stickers are the first big step (usually you get it within a week)
    Batch # (found on your window sticker) is your build group

  2. Track your build status at: https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking#/
    you will see in production and built dates (but not actual date it shipped)

  3. Modules (middle-ish of the process) are when modules are installed an activated
    Tear tags (happens a couple of days after you get your modules)

  4. Once built & shipped, track at: https://www.ford.com/buy/my-vehicles.html#/
    (this link only works if you reserved it online and not at your dealer)

  5. Average scheduled to ship time for our 10/10 build group was anywhere from 4 to 23 days with an average range of 10.7 days
