9/12/22 Build Week Chat

So is it pretty logical to assume that the higher up in the batch number you will be farther in the week? Or is that completely random as well?

Nice! I feel antsier than a kid at Christmas. Can someone please post a screenshot of what it looks like when the modules appear?

It's a wonderful feeling!

 

[Spectre]

My modules just showed up! Yay!

So what is that showing exactly? Still a little confused.

Essentially, if the list is populated, there must be something for the module to be populated with and it belongs to that vin, meaning assembly has at least started.

Each line is essentially a part. They are updated while being built as it moves through the line.

There's nothing specifically that you can do with the info except get excited that it's almost done! I believe there are about 980ish modules - depends on the model. You can paste in excel to get the count and know exactly how many are completed if you really want to kep track.

From my understanding, these Modules are responsible for monitoring and controlling various electronic accessories in your vehicle. When they begin to appear, it means they are being installed and your vehicle is going through the assembly process.

Here's an old thread that details the number of modules installed for each trim:

Let's find out. Can those of you with modules populated post your batch # info as they begin populating so that the group can track?

8071 or 8056

Batch: 8156 1390/1441

09/12/22 Still no modules, which I assume due to my higher number may not be for a few days.

I'm batch 8071 - 538/1350 and mine showed up late afternoon on 9/12.

Pasting them into Excel, I l count 1,016 modules showing up out of the 1,812 according to this post.

I hate to be a Debbie downer here but…. Logistics may screw us all up. If you have not been watching the news (maybe this has already been discussed here, sorry) lately there may be an upcoming rail strike. The Brandon administration got the unions n railroads to take a six month delay which expires soon and 2 unions are still not on board. I was reading this morning rail lines have stopped accepting “dangerous” materials which can’t be left for long on rail cars or left unattended. Is anyone on here knowledgeable of this freight space who can tell us how our MME shipping from Mexico will be impacted? I waited 462 days from reserving to receipt for my Lightning and NEED the Mach E before 12/31/22!

Slow your roll man, not a political forum.

For those unaware, strike could start Friday:

Good news - I think your car is finished! I've read that the remaining modules come online later when certain software activations occur or the dealer runs an update before delivery.

The left hand column in the module link is the number of modules at production.

I don't spend too much time on all of life's What Ifs. It's like folks driving around in constant fear of a HVBJB failure - if it happens, I'll deal with it then.

Most of these big potential catastrophes have a way of working themselves out before it becomes a problem.

i think the govt will intervene on a railroad strike - the CPI numbers today were still very high and market is selling off on that. A massive railroad strike would only stoke more inflation
