402A Deliveries?

[AMB_Tremor]

I think I found all of the Tremors that everyone is waiting on, was a quick photo this morning and I can try and get a better one this afternoon. Tremors sitting 7 rows wide and 5 trucks deep. This is not a dealership location, this is at one of the Roush buildings in Allen Park where Ford tends to stage vehicles before shipping out, or if they have a particular issue they are waiting for a rework ( I believe).

That's where all of the rust comes from I bet...

Ordered 11/22
Build date and VIN 1/12/23
Built Email 3/3/23
FordPass Activated 3/7/23
Shipped/Prep Delivery Email 3/14/23
Delivery Window of 4/3-4/9

Yesterday my FordPass app told me my truck was in Tampa, about 45 minutes from my dealer. I thought it was an error as that’s 3 weeks ahead of scheduled delivery window. Tracker still shows Shipped but Final Prep not complete. Window sticker hasn’t updated since Feb and completely disappeared for a few weeks.
Contacted the dealer who said they only saw what was on the tracker, contacted Ford chat who said that the vehicle only showed “Ready for Transit.” But she gave me the link to the tracker and said “It would be very helpful” (God bless her…just doing her job)
My dealer said if it’s true it’s in Tampa they’ll get notice today or tomorrow at the latest.
So I post all this to say that using your app to check in on your truck can be helpful, but as many others have said there’s no rhyme or reason to the trackers and often the dealer doesn’t even know what’s going on.

I had similar situation, I got an email saying that my vehicle was awaiting shipment. Same day I got a phone call from my dealer saying the vehicle arrived. He was just as surprised as I was.

I too had a similar situation, my truck was in awaiting shipment for over 3 months and out of nowhere I checked one day and it updated to being in "Final Preparations" I emailed my dealership and he said that he had not gotten any notification of it, sees the same thing I do and will check the back. Sure enough, it had just arrived. I never received any notification of it being shipped at all.

FordPass app correct, it was in Tampa and arrived to dealer late Friday night (3/24). I pick it up tomorrow (3/27). My journey through delivery was 4 months and 4 days, includes bed liner and bed cover.

Hi! New to the group and have been flipping through this very long thread. Ordered in late January; 402A, tow package, bed package, spray in liner, Unleashed. Supposedly went into production on March 5, but apparently is in limbo now because the dealer saw that it went offsite. No other information available. Window sticker has disappeared and the only communication I have had from Ford was when my order was scheduled for production. Looks like the waiting game begins! Can’t wait to get it in the driveway! I keep hearing a voice in my head telling me “patience young padawan”

Patience indeed. I am assuming it went off site for the spray in liner?

Might be the spray in that's holding it up. Some of the dealers that post YouTube videos advise to remove that and PPF or any accessories that can be installed later. January to March is pretty good. I ordered mine last May and got it in November. That was with my dealer working with Ford to move it to priority 2 because of something they did, they were trying to keep me happy.

I have no idea why it went offsite. My dealer hasn’t been much help and I don’t know where else to look. Dealer keeps saying that they can see that it went offsite, but there is no knowing why. They are also telling me that they can call Ford, but the people who answer the phone won’t have any more info than they do. The lack of communication it the most frustrating thing for me. I don’t mind waiting if I know why and there is some sort of ETA provided. But after looking through this forum I’m confident it will be worth the wait. I was sold right after a test drive!

I’m looking through threads on this forum to get a hint how I can find more specific info. Looks like there have been a couple of people that had access to better info. May try to pm them. I’m hesitant to bother them though, being brand new here.

Okay…Ford app just updated to show the truck is built, so 22 days to build it. The dealer confirmed. Now waiting for it to ship.

Just a little good news.

My loaded 402a went into production about 2 weeks early. Was supposed to go into production on 4/12 and I got notification yesterday that it’s now in production.

Update:

Well, I finally got my truck, it’s just not the one I ordered! . The truck I ordered arrived in Richmond, CA on April, 13. It was ordered January 27. It’s about an hour away from my dealer.

Long story short, last weekend a friend of mine who’s been with Ford for decades offered me an X code so I could get the friends and family discount, but my dealer refused to accept it and said they were sticking to MSRP. Fast forward to last Friday, I got a call from another dealer whom I had spoken with a few months ago and he said he had a fully loaded Avalanche Tremor that he’d discount for me and I could order all the accessories I wanted for his cost. After a little negotiation I ended up getting a truck with $2,700 more in options and all the accessories for about $200 less than I was going to pay the original dealer! So…here it is…let the mod’s begin!

Congrats and good work on the deal.
