Still had a 2/15 eta awaiting shipment.
if we can believe everything we're seeing on the tracker, most units to my area in Ohio are taking 42 days to ship from Mexico I am about 5 days from that window

Honestly it seems they’re holding Pacific NW and other region cars.
Don't think that's it. On my delivery receipt to Argentine Ramp, there are a few other vehicles that are destined for the PNW... Almost all of them were built the first week of January and shipped on Jan 22.

42 days once they’re shipped, or 42 days sitting there before they’re shipped?

Where was it when the status switched?
Still in Mexico. It was built on 1/19. It switched to “awaiting shipment” on 1/29 and I got an email saying it was built with an ETA of 3/17 - 3/23. Then on 2/3 it switched back to “in production” and the ETA on the tracker switched back to 1/1/1990.

Would it be possible to see that receipt (with yours marked out if that is an issue)?

Probably just a glitch as they organize the actual shipping. Give it a few more days.

I‘ll be delighted if that turns out to be the case. I’m kinda thinking maybe it was damaged when loading or something and had to go wait in line to get back into the plant to get repaired. Unfortunately, I have no choice but to wait. Even if there’s no update in a few days or a month, there’s really nobody to call.

Any idea what it means when it switches from Awaiting Shipment back to In Production?
Not clear but it might mean they have to re do something etc? Or may be a glitch

Seems like a long time. It's 2 weeks from Factory to KC. Surely it can't take another 28 days to get from KC to OH...

Since it was already released for shipping, I wouldn’t think it would be a QC issue. That’s why I was thinking maybe it got damaged. The few others I’ve seen that have had their status regress have been sitting in that status for a month or more with no new info. I was already looking at late March for the normal shipping time. The thought of it taking an extra month or two with no idea what’s going on during that time makes me sick to my stomach.

About 6 fctp's in 100 mile radius have shipped and eta is 42 days later ,1 about 30 miles away is only 32 days. Hoping actual delivery is sooner!
