I've been reading this forum for months and have learned a lot about Ford Options, vehicle issues (quite a few :() and the order process. Reading about the order process has me wondering if anyone has seen the same issues I have as of late?

Order Date: 3/16/21
Est. Build Week: 6/20/21
In Production: 6/28/21

The week of 6/20, my vehicle sticker became available...but now when I use the Vehicle Tracker Tool (@TheSeg ) it goes back to the old Window Sticker not found page. If I use the same tool with the order number, the data does still pulls through, but nothing has been updated. However, if I use the 'Mach-E Order Tracker Tool' at the top of this page, I now get 'Can't Retrieve This VIN.' Palsapp shows a Freight Bill #, but status is 'pending.' So, some of these seem like progress (Freight Bill) and others (lack of window sticker and still in production) seem like a lack of progress.

I know this process keeps changing, and there is a lot of conjecture as to why. (Chip shortage, Ford not updating data, etc.)

Has anyone else with similar time frames seeing any updates or same/similar issues as mine above? I get that nobody will have an answer as to why, just seeing if the same issues are becoming more common.

Very similar situation here, though a couple weeks ahead of you. My window sticker loads fine, but here's where I am:

Order date: 2/1/21
Est. Build Week: 6/7/21
In Production: 6/12/21
No Built date/notice
No Shipped date/notice

Radio silence ever since. VIN pulls up in Palsapp but shows "PENDING" status. Origin is Kansas City, Desintation is "-", Destination name is "null". This has been the case since 6/12.

There are several others I've seen on here who are in the same boat (See the last few pages of the "Submitted Orders # Tracking List" thread).

Nobody has any answers so far that I've seen.

thanks! Since you’re ahead of me, I’ll check the other thread you mentioned and see what happens with your build!

For me…
Order Date: Feb 14
Scheduled for production: Week of July 7th

No Build Date
So clearly at least two weeks behind schedule with no updates.

Like many others, the delivery ETA for my January ordered MME moved from August to 10/31/21. Today that was changed to 9/7/21. I can live with that. I was in the process of backing out of the order so the new date came just in time.
