I feel like I want to call ford for more details but what's the point... it won't change anything.

@TaxmanHog do you know if Ford updates the trackers as things get completed or just once a day? Or some other cadence?

Been a busy week and just checked my ETA for the first time in a few days. ETA has slipped from 9/10-9/16 to 9/27-10/3 despite being shipped and having a railcar assigned already. Will try and figure out what's going on today with Ford chat. As far as I can tell I never went in to microchip hold, was definitely in Shipped before those started cropping up.

I showed shipped yesterday but when trying to do the Rail tracing for Canadian Northern Railways it tells me my Rail car ( number provided from dealer and same number from Ford chat ) is empty and has been released by the customer BNSF in Portland, OR on May 8th.

Strikes me as odd for a rail that needs to go from Michigan to Wisconsin!

Chat from a few mins ago. Hopefully they are done with the chip holds.

Have you been tracking your rail car? It's possible it's been shipped already and waiting for a car hauler.

Tracking the railcar that Ford gave me indicates that it is down in Perryville, MD as of 3:30 AM. I think that's going to be past the Wilmington, DE stop where it should have been unloaded. I don't know how to track it now but I'm hoping there is a carrier ready to go.

I tried my rail car number too and it says it was released June 2 in Arizona... makes me think they recycle car numbers and that's still tracking the previous delivery

That's my guess to, but you just would think this information would be a little more accurate / up to date in the year 2022!

I was crazy surprised we couldn't track it like a UPS shipment. I tried after I was built one more time to active my fordpass but was denied again wah wah
