I've never gotten recall notices until after it's been in the press. Maybe stop sale, then press release, and by then owners would get notified...
My 2.0 Lariat was shipped also on October 9 with projected delivery of November 9. I received the following email this morning: “To ensure your complete satisfaction, we will require additional time before your 2022 Maverick LARIAT is delivered to Leith Ford. Your vehicle’s previous estimated delivery range of November 3, 2021, and November 9, 2021, has been updated to between December 6, 2021, and December 12, 2021.” I will try to find out the rail car number. It may be that something happened to our particular shipment.I've been watching this forum pretty religiously in anticipation of my truck arriving. I've mostly been trying to be on the lookout for quality issues that multiple people are reporting, but it's seemed generally pretty positive.
My truck shipped 10/9, and was scheduled to arrive today. My dealer, when I reached out to them, reported the same as my tracker was showing. This morning, I received the following email from Ford. For them to suddenly bump delivery on a truck that is built and should already be here, I'm suspicious that there's an issue with current builds that they need to look into before they release the truck to me/the dealer. Has anyone else received a similar message or heard anything that may be related? I'm grateful for a built truck, but it does nobody any good if it's just being stored someplace. I'm kinda pissed that they waited till the last possible moment to send this update along, too...
Between what I've seen here and reddit, it seems like, at minimum, there's a problem with a week or two worth of Lariat builds from early October. Shame we'll prolly never know what it was unless they do a piss poor job of addressing their second attempt at building/QCing them.

The rail car supposedly carrying my October 9 shipment is in Norfolk and I am waiting for it in Raleigh. My dealership says the holdup is that there are not enough workers in the rail yards.
The rail car on which my Maverick supposedly left Mexico is in Norfolk and I am waiting for it in Raleigh. My dealership says the holdup is because not enough workers are available at the rail yard. Maybe a month delay is n overestimate.
If such is the case, it's weird that emails read "To ensure your complete satisfaction..." That implies there is something they need to do to the vehicle before it is delivered.
Or just wait a few days assuming that Ford and dealers also want to move your car and get paid.
Maybe, except mine wasn't (isn't) a lariat. Maybe it shipped with only high class brethren.
I was in the same boat. Shipped 10/8 and delivery ETA kept getting pushed back. This past weekend I got an email that the new ETA was 12/8. Then bam! Yesterday my truck shows up. Stay patient. You're close!
