Build Week of 12/6 Production Purgatory

[NolaRad]

Maybe someone with knowledge who works for a reputable dealership can give us some answers? Mine has been useless.

Merry Christmas. After much wrangling here is the phone number to speak directly to a very nice lady from FORD who will look up your truck using your email address and tell you precisely where your vehicle is, the estimated VIN, Build and DEL dates. She can even see if there are any delays in your production (Spray-on bed liner, no longer a delay)

800-334-4375

Like a lot of other people during those dates, yours is sitting in a Mexican parking lot because of a lack of chips - hence the Micro Chip Hold status. It could be sitting for a long time.

That is what I am afraid of. I will wait and see if anything changes the first week of January since that is the date listed on the report.

Been in production since 12/03 with estimated deliver of 1/7/22 like others in this thread... I'm afraid to ask my dealer for an update because it looks like its gonna be a chip shortage issue.

My question is how are similar builds get started on 12/17 and shipped just days later? Did I not put enough money down for Ford to give me a golden ticket?

On my window sticker up towards the top right it has my build as 32/277, anyone else one of the 277?

Ordered 6/15, scheduled for week of 12/13, moved to week of 1/3…Patience?

Well I guess it eases the frustration to know I'm not the only one.

Misery loves company and all that.

No way in Hermosillo hell lol

UPDATE: there WAS a way. Turns out that the Ford website never updated with my ship date, but the truck did move out. Got to my dealer 12/24, Line-X is spraying in my liner today or tomorrow as a DIO, and I'm picking it up on Friday 12/31. A Christmas/New Year's Miracle.

I hope others with build weeks of 11/29 and 12/6 were equally as lucky!
