Order #?

[FauxOperator]

I went to my dealer this past weekend and ordered a 2022 Mach-E.

I got an e-mail from Ford that they received my order, however, I created an account with that e-mail and it's not in my Account on Ford's website under Orders. I figure this is probably because the dealer "built it" and ordered it through them.

I asked my salesperson for the Order # so I can keep track of it over the next handful of months and he said it's "P519". That doesn't pull anything from Ford, and looking at the list here on the forum, it looks like an 8 digit number that starts with 1.

Is that correct? I just want to know what to ask for when I e-mail him back.

Thanks!

As far as I know, if you order through the dealership, you won't be able to track or complete the order online.

Gotcha. Was going to order online but went to the local dealership to test drive one and get pricing sorted out so they did the order right there for me.

I know someone in this very painful and lonely boat. He was able to get a four digit order number from the dealer, so the one you have may be good. He was also able to track by calling Ford with the order number and the dealer code, which for our dealer was “F”+zip code, which also has to be obtained by the dealer, but Ford really couldn’t tell him anything until the VIN was generated. Once the VIN was generated and he would find the right person, he gives them the order number and the VIN.

Our dealer always has the best info from the VVR. But like many of us he was impulsive and impatient so he wanted to also call Ford for updates.

Good to know. I noticed the Order Tracking topic on here that had an 8-digit number and I was confused.

Thanks for the heads up.
