Update: F-150 Lightning Fast Charging Tesla Adapters Start Shipping TODAY Per Ford!

[sotek2345]

Has anyone seen any shipment in July at this point? I know we didn't have any last week, but that was a holiday week.

7196 - nothing new. Still says July

Most of Ford shuts down and goes on vacation the first two week of July. I don’t expect to see any movement until sometime next week. Hopefully the adapters have been piling up on their receiving dock so they have plenty to send out the last two weeks of July.

The remnants of Beryl just rained all over them and they were ruined. So, they will have to reorder another 20,000.

Soon to say August.

It's been a few weeks for an update. A few pieces of data have trickled in about shipping being pushed out. I've updated those in the spreadsheet. A couple of reports don't fit in line with others.

Bottom line, if Ford has sent accurate updates and Ford can hit the dates, July will be a big month. Updated June orders pushed to July and July orders that weren't told anything different, they might be planning on hitting up to order number 25K this month. However, they could just be ignoring July updates for now, we may get updates they get pushed later in the month.

8260 is now July

Ford should remove these estimates. They obviously don't know when they will ship.

Nope.

Adapters are shipped by a 3rd party.

Has anyone heard any updates past the "We're still waiting on shipment from Tesla that is a week or two late at this point"

This seems like a case study in how not to manage a supply chain.

The silence is deafening for this and OTA updates.

From the start, back on Feb 29, mine said June.
When Ford sent its thank you for your patience email in June, I checked and it stil, said June.
It’s now July 19 so I checked and it says “by July 2024”

I’m not holding my breath I ordered the new A2Z version a week or two ago.

I also bought a destination charger adapter for Tesla Level 2 chargers. Like those at hotels.

This is the way. I did the same, and the shipping delays are infinitely less frustrating to me. If I never charge at a supercharger, it's still money well spent.

I also bought a destination charger adapter for Tesla Level 2 chargers. When I went to use it in a parking garage the charger was blinking red and did not seem to work. Happily I was able to use a CCS1 level 2 charger. Do the Tesla chargers blink red and I was doing something wrong or does red mean out of service?

I'm trying so hard to be patient with an Oct. 24 target date, but my trip to the finger lakes would have been more relaxing if I could have used Tesla fast chargers.

Yes, red is bad. If light didn't turn red until you plugged in adapter, then charger was locked for Teslas only.
