When you were told 5 months, that information was reasonably accurate at that time. Then the chip shortage got worse, and orders got bumped out by months. No different on any other models, or brands.
from Ford at this time.
That makes sense. I chose this dealership intentionally because they don't do dealer markup. Didnt known they received high numbers of Mach E's. Considering that you and I ordered 3 days apart from the same dealership, that production date you mentioned for early November sounds very promising! Especially since I did not get an email. I will confirm. Thank you!
I ordered a Premium AWD ER one day after your order and received a confirmation email that I was rolled over to a 2022.I had placed my order for a Premium RWD MME on 7/12/21 at a NorCal dealership and was told that I had a build date confirmation for 10/18 along with the Vin # he had provided. I would like to think that the car should be rolled over to a 2022 build since I am not expecting delivery before late December, however my dealership states that they see no changes online. I don't think it's fair that customers are getting so much variability in the receipt of this email even though our order months are staggered over multiple months.
At this time he offered cancellation and rebooking with any other dealership of my choice, however I told him I would much rather the process play out as I want to get the car sap and even cash in on the federal rebate for 2021 vs 2022. However it would be great to get some clarity and consistency
Iconic Silver is no longer available. You’ll need to pick a new color.
That lines up well with what someone stated about the AWD parts causing some build delays for Ford. My dealer confirmed again today he is still seeing a 2021 build at this time, which I am ok with at this time. I am guessing the issues with the glass recall will be resolved on my build and getting that extra bump on the battery isn’t a big deal since I am in for the extended battery anyways.
That is very interesting. I regularly see in a sample size of 10 cars, 4 Teslas and 1 Audi E-tron driving on River road. It used to be you could not spit without hitting a E/S class MB or 5/7 series BMW
Go to your dealer today, bypass the salesman (they are clueless) and ask for the sales manager to look up your order. If it was converted from a 21 to a 22my order his order sheet should have a priority BELOW 19 and most likely a 10. If its not suggest he change the priority now.
I see the same thing on the Ford website. However, I've already been to my dealer (I changed my paint to one of the new colors available for 2022). The Sales Manager easily found my order and made the change and it is now reflected on the Ford's site. The whole Mache-E online order things is not exactly smooth so I would not worry about that statement. If you still have an order number, you should be all set.
I don’t see many 22’s being delivered this year. In fact, I’m worried my 21 won’t be delivered this year and I miss taking advantage of the tax credit for this year.
