✅ 8/1 Lightning Build Week Group

[JediGamerCT]

I wasn’t being pranked. After 476 days since reservation I thought that might be a real possibility lol but the vin’s match. And most of the paperwork is done.

I’m glad the VIN matches, otherwise I’d be worried they brought you my truck! Enjoy it in good health build week doppelgänger!

@TaxmanHog does your order tracker make predictions or is it factual data only

Still not built .

I am now assuming I have some sort of major problem happening. My in production date was 8/1.

I'll get an update from Ford this week and post what they say in case others are suffering the more than a month build time.

I'm wondering if anyone has come across this situation and can shed some light?

I've not had great news from Ford. My build estimate date of 3-9th September came and went so I contacted them today. They told me that my vehicle was "Built" on 08/07 but it currently has a "Micro Chip At Plant On Hold" delay.

They can't provide me any further info on estimates etc... they directed me to my dealer who since Aug 16th has been unresponsive .

I suspected I had some sort of unusual issue, I'm just wondering if anyone has seen/heard of this before?

Cheers

Vehicles being on "chip hold" has been an on/off again issue throughout the F150L and Ford's ICE vehicles production. The silver lining is that you probably won't get a feature cut, which is what some people are experiencing.

Well, she’s home at last!

Glad other people from the 8/1 build week are finally getting their trucks. Just got the charge station pro in the mail today. For other people in CA, ask your dealer about the carpool lane stickers. I had to send in the application on my own but it may be something they can handle for you. If not here is the link: Clean Air Vehicle Decals for Using Carpool and HOV Lanes - California DMV

I'm pulling live data from the public facing trackers, or manual reports from other members as the speak up, what you're experiencing has happened many times before to others, part of the new world order.....

Same, got my charger today.

I think I'm going to put off ordering the stickers and plead ignorance should John Q Law want to stop and talk about the . Eek a couple more months out of the carpool lane.

 

[ExCivilian]

I've read it suggested to wait until the new year for your HOV stickers because this year will count as the first year even though you only get a few more months of '22.

That's a steep ticket and CHP salivates over them so pleading ignorance won't help on this one.
