Thread for people who haven’t got their Lightning yet to be grumpy in

I also was moved yesterday, for the first time in over a month (and only time since fordpass has been active), to lot near train tracks off Eureka and Jackson. At least they are aware of my truck! 5/6 production, no built or shipping emails yet....

I was in this lot for a few days, I believe it is lot G. Then I was moved to the new vehicle development center and today I received the built email and a delivery between July 4 and 10.

WOW!
Congrats.
Delivery in a week ? Are you close to MI where it can just be trucked over and avoid the rail ?

Nope. Northern NJ so I think the delivery window is not accurate.

another week another bunch of cricket's. I think i am going to take a week break... you may now return to your regularly scheduled programming. Congratulations to all on your trucks builds. @Ford Motor Company love the silence....

THAT is what bugs me, the SILENCE. You emailed me in March telling me my truck is scheduled to be produced the week of 5/2. Then not a SINGLE official pro-active update since. Dealer is in the same boat.

If I didn't come here, I'd have even LESS of clue what's going on than I do now. It's July, why the hell is the truck still in Michigan?

@Ford Motor Company this is bad business. Leaving customers in the dark for months at a time. What is your obvious fear with some transparency to your loyal customers??

Have a build date of 7/11 for my Platinum Lightning. No word from Ford on the truck but the Mach E GT I ordered in early March received its very first email today with a commitment from Ford to communicate better and at most no longer than 45 days between updates.

Can you post or PM the message? I am curious…

Here’s a screen shot the Mache E GT received Friday, 7/1/22.

Results of the Tuesday morning scan of Auto Trader VIN's, no updates except a few more customer deliveries. No action on In Production, Built, Shipped.

We are hoping to see updates Wednesday as a result of todays back to work at the Rouge, our assumption is that the logistics folks will be pushing a LOT of trucks onto train cars this whole week!

I drove by the various Dearborn lots last week and noticed there were still TONs of Lightnings still parked around. So here’s hoping for those trucks that are for the members on this forum, they will be shipped out soon.

Mine is definitely moving more. Not any nearer to me, but its moving lot to lot to lot, every couple days (with the milage to prove it ). So maybe Ford is working through those of us Left Behind this week as was predicted by the forum.

Damn, that’s a distance away, but satellite shows other ford trucks in that lot whenever that was taken. Maybe you’re being prepped for shipping. There‘s a building for something.
‘how many miles on odometer?
