Just for my information, is your dealer proactively providing these updates to you or are you following up with them? Mine has been radio silent on me and completely useless when I approach him with questions. Just wondering if I have a below average guy.

My expectations from auto salespeople in general is extremely low, but this dude manages to perform even below that threshold.
I deal with three dealers. This one is proactively sending me info, exact dates, etc. Heā€™s great.

One other one just texted me to say I have a build date (didnā€™t tell me what) and no other info.

The third.. radio silence. They are a high volume dealer who will probably just markup my Mach-E when I abandon it.

Helpful, thank you.

I have not heard a word from my dealer since I ordered back in Nov.

My dealer told me my exact build day was 5/18.

What would be hilarious if my 5/16 week Mach-E gets built and shipped before my 4/18 week (built on 4/20 and stuck in part hold)... I was supposed to take the first one that arrived but I'd rather have the GTPE... lol.
Mullinax Kissimmee told me mine was 5/17. Iā€™m a little before you in batch at 85. I honestly thought he was just making stuff up but if you were told Wednesday and I was told Tuesday that kinda makes sense.

Does anyone know when something changes on the modules and random other checking sites/things that donā€™t tell me anything yet?

Iā€™m getting mine from Mullinax Kissimmee too! My guy told me 5/12 was my build date last time we talked. Iā€™m batch 5992. I was scheduled 5/9 build week but it looks like weā€™re lumped in with the 5/16 build week now.

My sales guy twice now told me I was on his list to call when I called him. Not sure if that meant sooner or later. I was a little bothered that I would get "something changed" messages from Ford but there was no practical way of telling exactly what changed.

I chatted with him last time and he said with most of his sales being long-term orders he can't keep up. Giving him the benefit of the doubt I suspect that has a lot of it has to do with the volume of incoming status-update calls.

I am in the same batch, but my production date has been more consistent and is 5/16. However, I have not gotten any updates that there is progress yet as far as production goes.

Same here.
Iā€™m keeping an eye on the 5/2 gang chatter and it seems some have not seen dates populated for ā€˜In Productionā€™ or ā€˜Builtā€™ milestones yet.
Iā€™m still hopeful today is the day for our batch!

Iā€™m in the 5/2 build week and Iā€™m still showing as ā€œIn Productionā€ with no modules, as of 5/17 at 9am PST :(

Any reason I wouldn't have a VIN or Window Sticker yet? I'm 5/16 build week too

If I were you, I would contact the dealer and / or ford customer service and inquire about your vin. Customer service would need your order number and dealer name & location to look up your order and provide a vin. Once you have that, you can look up your window sticker on the ford order status website.

Good luck!
