✅ 2/6/2023 [3/13] Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

[ChrisC]

The next step in the process is "BUILT" hopefully 7-10 days after production started.
Then moved to the spray in liner shop in your case.
Then to the shipping & staging lot.
Then onto a rail car.
Then off the rail car and in the KS CONVOY staging lot
Then arriving at your dealership!!

My dealership is actually shipping it to a dealer near me. I went with them because they said they would honor MSRP so I am hoping all goes well!

That is fantastic, I totally missed your location & delivery point mis-match!!

Status updated today to In Production with a date 03/16/23. Woo Hoo!

Originally had a 2/9 blend date, window sticker shows 557/847 trucks for the original build week (VIN 1FT6W1EV7PWG12108).

Crossing my fingers that our truck is in process of being built. Per @TaxmanHog's table that build date most likely shifted to 3/16, but haven't seen any modules populate yet. Hopefully next week!

Now my dealer did say they were showing usually a 4-6 week build to delivery timeframe, and they're seeing a 4/17 delivery week estimate in their system so... timing all sounds about right.

Production data on this build week seems to have stalled!

I talked to my dealer today and they made a mistake by not changing the delivery location.. I really hope they can fix it but their manager gave the wrong information that the delivery would be needed AFTER the order was placed but in reality it had to be done before. Is there anything I can do @Ford Motor Company ?

Yup, not seeing any updates on ours. No tracker updates nor AsBuilt/modules.

 

[TaxmanHog]

@rajurrk your modules are popping!!

Only 43 days behind schedule

Thanks I already bought a 22 lariat ER last week that also got me the tax credit
Thanks

Update: My modules have started to populate!

 

[TaxmanHog]

Several others are showing progress as well, nice to see some updates finally

 

[TaxmanHog]

@njaehner Progress!!!

This ~SHOULD~ have happened on or about 3/17 based on your original 2/9 blend day and the delayed start of the 2/6 trucks.

It seems there has been another hold in production amounting to about 10 days, either the line is very slow or there was a pause, nothing in the media about what is going on.

Yep! I just saw the 3/27 "In Production" date a few minutes ago/when I checked while drinking my cup of coffee this morning.

Funny to note that the Canadian version of the tracker has been updated, while the US version (the one I see when I log into ford.com and click "My Reservations") has not yet been updated with this new information

@Barrels Progress, she's alive!!!!

@TaxmanHog

Thank you! More than my dealer could/would tell me.

My dealer says it went on a train last week but there is no update on the Ford dashboard on my account. Still just says production scheduled for 2/6/2023.
Are you able to look into your system (or tell me how so I stop bothering you) and tell me the actual status?
Thank you.
