May 9th Build Week Thread

[Badfish]

Curious - new hear and just ordered last week in Canada. Do you need to sign up for these notifications? I hadn’t received anything from Ford that I am aware of.

Sorry to see your May 9 build pushed guys - do work in semi conductor heavy field and can attest to how hard it is to ship on time right now.

So far May 2 build week has not been pushed back. Hope it’s a sign of not months long delays and orders getting caught up

You’re dealer should have input your email for you to receive notifications. If you haven’t received a confirmation email from ford about your order definitely go back to dealership and tell them to fix email.

I ordered a F250 and the dealer never entered my email. You can call Ford Marketing and give them your order number and they will give you status (what I had to do with that)

Had a friend order through Granger on 1/13. Never got email assumed it was good . Contacted them 2 weeks ago-they didn’t input his order until 3/15. Needless to say he was a little upset.

Definitely make sure it’s been placed.

^^^^^ this. You should have gotten a confirmation email relatively shortly after ordering (could be different in Canada I suppose). I was in a situation with my bank once after I ordered a debit card replacement, they said it would take 2 weeks, after 2 weeks I thought I'd be patient and wait. After 3 weeks I called, they forgot to order it. Never hurts to double check.

From my experience in Canada the only way to get an update at present is via your dealer. With that being said if I don't request an update maybe I can keep living on the dream that my build date didn't get pushed haha

 

[leddzep]

same here... pushed from 5/9 to 5/16.

Just got an email myself....

Twice in 24 hours. I wish they would have given me a late June build date, and either surprised me with earlier or been on time. The delaying over and over again is an odd tactic haha

I have not received any emails pushing my date back. I’m still scheduled for first week of May. I would love to sit in on Ford production meetings.

When was your order date?

December 23

Well it's good to read you folks, it helps prepare for pain and patience. I ordered mine two weeks ago, guess I'll see it in fall for hunting season

I wasn't intending to order in December and planned to wait until March, but hoo boy so glad I ordered when I did.

Ordered early Feb in Canada, bronco and a tremor. Haven’t heard a thing from Ford and dealer has no updates for me either

Canada also and order3d 2 weeks ago, im calling tomorrow my dealer for order number and makong arrangement with Ford customer service. Don't want my dealer to forget or whatever keeping track

They got rid of all the incremental process notifications to reduce customer stress on missed milestones. Now they make it a single date and just keep pushing that one. Same internal scheduling, only now you only see the entire package delayed rather than each part.

Not sure I like this method any better. I didn't order until last month when I found out I wouldn't be getting a Lightning this year, and I need a new truck. I may have to start looking for any decent new truck on a lot I'm willing to pay a mark-up on.
