I put in my request months ago but, unless I missed it, haven't heard or seen anything. Who can I contact about this?

Whaaaaaat?????
they haven’t been shipping? First we’ve heard of that.

lets see, looks like they shipped 6,300 of the ordered 110,000+. Ford estimating to ship 10,000/month starting in June.

now I’m not a mathematician, but correct me if I’m wrong, Ford doesn’t appear to be meeting their shipping goals.


gosh, was hoping they’d surprise ship some of us May delivery estimate, in August - just so they could say they shipped early.

Ask the parts department.

Shh, don’t tell him. :)

This is either troll of the year or a truly innocent man who lives under a rock looking for information.

Log into your account on Ford.com, go to your account page, and you should see this at the top of the page:

Click on the link to see your expected delivery date. It's likely to be pushed, but you can at least see they have your order. If you do not see the order status link, then scroll to the bottom of the page and look for this:

The reservations for the adaptor opened on the last day of February. Even if you had reserved yours on that day, as most of us did, and there were a lot of people reserving the adaptor and lucky enough to get theirs by now. I was slated to get mine sometime in June. In the course of waiting for mine you would have gotten couple emails from Ford telling you of the delays and updates of an estimated delivery of the adaptor.
Did you get those emails?
I did get those emails and I am waiting for Tesla to make them so they can pass them to Ford for delivery.
When we get them, for those who still waiting, is just a guess.
In the meantime, if you make lots of trips, purchase the A2Z adaptor to be able to charge at Tesla superchargers.
That is the reality at this point.
Calling Ford customer service or checking on the Ford.com website, would let you know where your reservation is doing and is still current in their system.
I use both my EVs extensively lately on long and short trips. I have two(2) A2Z adaptors now. Whenever Ford ships the adaptors I have reserved then I would add them to my adaptor collection.

One has to wonder why Ford hasn’t reached out to one of the after market companies. Must somehow be related to an agreement with Tesla

While y'all are waiting, make sure your address of record is current at Ford.com, as long as this distribution is likely to take, some of you might change apartments, condos, or sell your houses and move before it's shipped.

Thanks for showing how to find the link.
Can I assume my October date is not going to happen. Since my original reservation is 5/27 and there are orders months ahead of me.

Given the speed of the rollout, you may need to provide a cemetery plot!

At the rate they are going you might want to update your will so Ford knows which of your heirs they should sent it to.

Highly unlikely.

They last shipped in early June, nothing since then. Rest of June, and all of July and August orders moved to September. Order A2Z's Typhoon Pro for SuperChargers, and use the dropdown menu to pick the Stellar adapter for Tesla Destination chargers. It is only $67.50 more when ordered with the $193.50 Typhoon Pro. A combined 20% off with code FORDFORUM. https://a2zevshop.com/products/nacs-ccs1?ref=Typhoon&variant=43186507579592
