✅ 7/18 Lightning Build Week Group

Now the question is when will they ship? Stilll showing in Production…

Could show in production while the truck is in your driveway.

I got some good advice to check my VVR on the 7/11 thread. Mine was built and on the ramp for shipping while it showed in Production - 4 days after the in production date.

How do you access VVR information?

How do you access VVR information?

Only available to your dealer sales staff (managers)!?

That’s what I thought as well originally but was having trouble with the dealer

@Firestop told me to call “Ford New Vehicle Support Team 800-334-4375 and ask for the Lightning Team at the 1st voice prompt.”

Then…
“could look at my VVR a provide me the latest Primary and related Secondary Status of my truck”?

I did extacly that with an extra polite tone and some extra “please” and “thank you” and was able to get mine as well.

That's good, I would think a national level customer service center has global access to the data.

Modules should be popping and might have tear tags on all 7/18, 7/19 & 7/20 blend days!
Except @knot_another_won I looked yours has not popped yet

Need manual reports from @Bmann @HJP @olliegator

My modules have popped but no tear tag yet. I'll keep checking day by day. Currently still showing "In production" with a date of 7/22/22.

Modules popped overnight. 7/22 blend date. It's alive!

Just checked again and the Tear Tag is now there. 1 baby step at a time....

Same here. What does the Tear Tag actually mean and how does it relate to the Built Status?

Leading speculation is that it's a check or quick reference code for the configuration, it appears a few days after the code modules begin to populate below

Tear tag appeared and hundreds of module numbers showed up.

My sales guy told me that my truck is sitting at Ramp 51 in Michigan as of Saturday at 9:51 PST. However, the rail issues may end up sending it to Portland before coming to me.

After the modules populate and the Tear Tag is generated, what's the next step? What do we monitor to track progress? At this point are we looking for a Built status in the Ford Order Tracking system or from the ordertrack.app site?

What was your blend date out of curiosity?
