I have been waiting for the phone call from my dealer for 3 days now. The ANXIETY...
Really wish I get a chance to pick it up this weekend.

This makes no sense. My MME is heading in the wrong direction. I’m in Chicago.
It went from Mexico to KS. KS to Elkhart IN. South from Elkhart to Goshen IN.
now further south (said was on flat car and has crossed state lines)
And now intermediate arrival on train to Decatur IL
???
What on earth??
I’m 2 hours away from Elkhart.
Anyone tracking theirs and seeing weird journey/route?
Going from flat car to train then flat car to train??
oy!

Did your dealer send you updates or how did you track this info? Just ensure is accurate. I don’t track it but dealer sends daily txt updates. It seems each dealer gets cars differently, use different carriers etc. i would check with the dealership and see what is their route when getting new cars. I’m in Chicago as well, car was apparently in Elkhart like yours and got in Chicago a few days later i think. My delivery date is august so that’s when i plan to go get it.

The flat car is still at train car, ( as a matter of fact its still the same one it was loaded), I found out this week when I got the same response from Norfolk Southern.

Got it. So the car has been on a train the entire time but why is it going south to come back north when it could’ve gone across from Elkhart to Illinois?

Been tracking by calling Norfolk southern myself with my rail car #. My dealer rarely gets the MME and has 1 person who knows how to track and that guy is rarely in.
my delivery was moved from 8/14-20 to 7/22-28 so all good. I’ll just stop tracking and maintain my sanity and just wait for a call. I’m traveling to Cali any way all of next week. ?

So even though your car is in Chicago you’re still not getting it until Aug?

They had me wait so long now they need to wait :) no, for some reason the “complete purchase” is not available yet I’ll be waiting on that rather than go into the dealership. They’ll deliver the car at my house. Hope you get it soon, seems like there are different routes and transport services depending on dealerships

Just checked with Ford chat. My Mach-e is now 25 miles away, at the Burlington Northern Big Lift Automotive Facility in Littleton, CO. Still saying delivery date is 8/13 though.
Mine has been 15 miles away from my dealer for a week and still hasn't arrived.

Well, I'm happy if my Mach-e doesn't move for a while. Still trying to get the dealer educated about Ford Price Protection for those of us who ordered before December 8. They are talking to their Ford Rep. I'm hoping that works.

Who knows, is like mine, arrived in Jacksonville on Thursday and it hasn’t moved. Ford chat still says August 9th delivery date. It took seven days from KC to FL, and its going to take 15 days to get to Orlando? Its only a two hour drive. Hopefully on Monday they move it, and I can get it delivered this coming week, interest rates are going up August 1st, I want to get before then.

Finally was able to get UP automated tracking phone line to work last night. Appeared to indicate my railcar has arrived in Denver. Reached out to my salesperson at Phil Long who was only able to quote the same delivery window that I can get on my order page. :rolleyes:
