Yep. 11/21 order, reordered this past September. Truck is built but stuck in a rail yard. It has been there weeks now.Anyone who placed an order in 2021 still waiting for their maverick?
That actually makes a lot of sense lolWell...here's my take:
In Ford's wisdom, they had a bunch of folks rollover their no-VIN 2022s in September because they determined they couldn't be built as 22s. They told dealers to prioritize them at PC10 (GROUP A), and enter any new order taken during the stupid 5 day, way-too-early open order period (GROUP B) at 11-19.
Some dealers didn't pay any attention, so NEW 2023 orders got PC10s and GROUP A and GROUP B got thoroughly mixed.
In a stroke of genius, Ford realized they couldn't even build the 2022s that they had already assigned VINs and build dates to. So they had to figure out what to do with these, (GROUP C) to get them at the front of the line, where they were previously, with their assigned yet now cancelled VINs.
While figuring out how to deal with GROUP C, Ford realized that the production lines were going to be empty, so they needed to START building from GROUP A orders (well mixed with GROUP B orders). So they did, about 11/23/22...while dealers were given until 11/30/22 to fix the GROUP C orders.
Then Ford started dealing with the GROUP C orders, pushing back GROUP A and GROUP B orders.
If you were a GROUP B order who got a truck built already, Ford helped you seriously jump the lines. If you are still unbuilt as a GROUP B, you may be a while,
Looks like January is going to be a big month for us with Ford playing major catch-up. Myself included, I'm on my second VIN. At least I have one, sorry you VIN less folks hope you get yours soon.Anyone who placed an order in 2021 still waiting for their maverick?
