Now how do I interpret the data?

See the pink highlight on the example, look at your sticker in the same area to determine your order code.

This shows you that Ford-Service-Info your truck is alive once the tear tag is listed, not much you can do with the programming codes

This shows you dates of production Ford-USA as it progresses through the various stages.

Thanks for creating this space! XLT ER here scheduled for the week of 7/31. I wonder if this is the first build week after plant shutdown?

my XLT ER has a build week of 7/31 as well. They did update the system on 8/4. I’ve heard nothing new.

The next communication will be when the truck has reached BUILT status, another when it has shipped, finally one to let you know that the truck is ready to complete the sales process at your dealership.

My XLT ER Build Week was originally week of 7/31/23. It was changed to 8/4/23. Although it is currently “In Production“, is it safe to assume that the build dates are pushed back to coincide with the shutdown?

How long does ”In Production” normally take?

Thanks!

The change you seen is that your BLEND DAY of 8/4 was determined when your window sticker was issued for week starting 7/31 (MONDAY) on July 20th.

Hopefully you can see the program modules and tear tag now at this site: Ford-Service-Info

My tear tag # was issued last night. I’ll be tracking the timeline to be delivered to the Pittsburgh region. I assume they will truck it (vs. rail). ?

IIRC Pittsburgh is within reach of CONVOY runs, but the east coast bound rail passes by also.

I'm still showing "Scheduled for the week of 7/31" on my order page, I've been able to pull my VIN out of the network requests, but when I put that in the order tracker it still tells me "We're sorry. We are unable to process this Order. Please enter a valid Ford Order/VIN."

Did they actually start production last week, are they delayed, anyone know what's going on?

Make sure to use the 4 digit ORDER code from your sticker, which is not the same has your 8 digit reservation/order number. I can try looking up your info if you would like to DM your VIN to me

Is there a guide on how to get my window sticker?

Thanks! I can see that it started production on 8/4 and I have a window sticker, modules and a tear tag. Exciting times! What is a Tear Tag? can I do anything knowing that data?

FWIW I'm truck 675/696 this week. Hopefully they worked out any new kinks in the production line on the first 500 or so

Not much you can do with it, this information is what your FoMoCo service technician would need to program the truck if a module needs replacing. We just use it as an indicator of production progress.

I hope so too!!
