Production Purgatory

[Pastor_Zatx]

5/3 build date. Still in production. Even though it’s not shipped, Ford tells me the estimated delivery date is 11 days from now (6/8) even though it takes 20-30 days to go by rail…

No third party options.

My vehicle says shipped. Does anyone know what rail takes trucks to New England? Also where does the rail stop and get put on trucks to their final destination? Union Pacific I think stays west of the Mississippi so is it CSX? Also how do I get the shipping info? I’m told it’s about a month for my truck to arrive at my dealership in Salem NH?

Mine shipped yesterday and is also coming to New England so our trucks are probably on the same rail car.

I was in the same boat. I wonder how close our two trucks were down the assembly line? I think I was 36 out of 2900 or something.

Not too close. I was 1700 and something.

Our rig left the rail yard 5/25 and arrived in Nogalas that night. Now heading to industry which I assume means City of Industry/CA - Spent about 17 days in a production status.

If you find out how to track it let me know. I think the rail yard is in Worcester MA or if you have the Boston accent like me Woosta

Mine is still "In Production" with no dates on the tracker. Window sticker was first printed on 5/13 for a build week of 5/16 and nothing since then. Sounds like it could take up to 18 days to show a "built" status.

I kept thinking the window sticker would change with stuff like "Blend Date" and "Ship Date" and "Rail Car #", but it hasn't changed once since it was first printed. I wasted 300 instances of checking it from when it was first created (5/4) to the last time I checked it (5/27, today).

Yeah I wasted more time looking at it one last time to see if the rail car information had been put on it since that would be the last thing they'd add. Nothing new.

Anyone else stuck production purgatory? My build has said in production for 2 weeks now. Don’t know if this is normal or just another hiccup in the system. I have checked to see if my trucks computers have populated but not a one is alive yet.

I agree! Ford is really not doing well with communication or production at this point. Very frustrating, lucky to have this group to share experiences and tips.

Same situation here. In production since 5/19, no blend date shown on the window sticker.

Mine has shipped, and the blend date never populated.

The tracking site gets “stuck” sometimes. Either close the browser and then try again or try a different browser. Sometimes refreshing the page unsticks it, but I get best results by closing the browser and starting over or by using a different device altogether.

Good luck.
