Build date 10/11 delayed TWICE, now 10/25 - Now Tracker doesn't list my ride!

[Air Shootist]

Long story short:
Ordered Fully Optioned Lariat July 29th
Build date week of 10/11
Delayed to week of 10/18
Last week.... delayed again to week of 10/25

...Now when I enter my order # and VIN into the Ford tracking webpage....NOTHING...

Anyone know wtf is up with that? Starting to get a little pissed off with Ford over here. This is gonna mess up my plans for a Thanksgiving road trip. Hope I don't turn out like the Bronco pre-order dudes waiting like a year to get my whip....

The tracker has been wonky lately. Try clearing the cache on your computer/phone and pull up the tracker again.

And make sure your not including the . At the end of your VIN.

I had a build date of 10/11 and have been "In Production" since 10/7 with no change at all, but ever since then the tracker has been only been working on and off for me. Sometimes it pulls back my Mav, sometimes nothing at all and sometimes, I get someone else's F350 order.
I'm one of the folks that never have received any emails from Ford, so who knows what's going on?

Guess I should reach out to my salesman to see if/how many times I've been rescheduled at this point. I won't be too critical of Ford's timing, since I ordered with the understanding it'd be delivered "in the Fall", which is still a couple months away. But man, Ford's inability to send emails, keep their tracking online, stick to estimated dates and the etc. does get a bit old at this point.

Cleared the cache and internet history, re-tried entering my order number and VIN... and the tracker CHANGED THEM to some dude's F-250 Lariat order!

My Lariat was scheduled to build that week as well. I got an email Friday saying it was built and going through preliminary testing and getting ready to ship. ETA
11/10.
I know the Mexico plant was shut on 10th and 11th and again on 15th.
So, I don't know what to think. I was able to pull up yhe window sticker before now I can,t. Go figure!
Hope you hear something soon...

For what it's worth, my order tracker was working perfectly over the weekend, and now, when I hit track, it goes back to the same page and populates a random VIN and Order Number, so it is possible that they are updating it.

The last time this happened, my truck went from "Ordered" to "In Production". Keep the faith.

I'm probably one of the most impatient people on the planet, but I know it'll be worth it.

Odd... the tracker is now apparently working again.... and it says my Lariat is "In Production" even though the date was supposedly changed to next week. Window sticker still does not work...

The dealer told me that some of the orders would just kind of magically arrive at the dealership wayyyy early, not matching at all what the tracker said. Ford needs to get it together. Fingers crossed that I get lucky here. My Thanksgiving road trip from Chicago to Nashville might still happen...

Check also on MTC's tracker to see if you get the same results.

Same thing happened with the tracking for my Mav. Build got moved from 10/11 to 10/18. Then the tracker showed "In Production" Thursday of last week. I have a window sticker too. I am hoping for good things this week, but have not received any emails from Ford, aside from my order confirmation, the original build date, and then the rescheduled build date. I've test driven a Mav and really liked it. So, I'm trying to be patient and just let things happen. It's all out of my control anyway...

The tracker will show in production a few days before the scheduled build week. This normally is
the blend day.

What is this "blend day" you speak of? Is that where Ford blends my emotions into an amalgamation of anger, impatience, hopefullness, excitement, uncertainty, and disappointment?

Funny, but not sure if you're joking....but blend day is the day they get all your parts and pieces all in their places with bright shiny faces so each appears at the right place at the right time as they all move down the production line to become your new vehicle.

And when you do get your window sticker the blend date will be shown in the special order box. The blend date on mine is 9/29/21
