Still no blend date and it is my build week. Should I be concerned?

Still, no blend date and it's my build week (4/10/23). Should I be concerned? Has this happened to other people?

Mine was built a couple of months ago. I watched it like a hawk and never saw anything about my blend date. I don’t think they include that info anymore. In a few days your modules will come alive and you will know. I received a notice from Ford about 10 days later that it was built. As I said , I’ve had mine about 6 weeks now and absolutely love it. My wife is kinda jealous!

Thanks! How long did the shipping take?

Same here. Original "build week" was 4/10, now shows in production with build "week" of 4/14 (Thursday). Been watching my sticker every day and evidently no blend info on there.

The only place you'll see your blend date is on the window sticker. This is just the date where all the parts converge for that truck to go through final assembly, but it is also an estimate and many factors can change when the truck is actually done and sent out for shipping. The tracker won't say "built" until after the blend date typically. In my case my blend date was 3/8, but my "scheduled week of" was 3/16 and it was "built" on 3/21.

This is the "invoice date". According to some more searching here, it looks like we won't get a blend date on our stickers. Just hold tight. Magic is about to happen.

I’ve got nothing to add except to say “hi” to my build week buddies. I’m 4/12 and furiously hitting refresh this week.

No problem here either. Got a build week and it moved twice during that week, then got a notice it was built and ready for shipping toward the end of the week. You should be good to go. Took about 2 weeks to get to the Dallas, TX area.

My current situation

*9/2022 new order*

My Lariat Tremor was originally scheduled for production week of 3/27.

I received an email about a month ago that said the production date was moved to the week of 3/30. Which is odd because the 30th was a Thursday.

Last week, I receive an email saying it is in production as of 3/30.

Fast forward to last Thursday (4/6/23) and I just got an email saying my build that was scheduled for production the week of 3/27 is now delayed and they would contact me again in 45 days.

Checked this morning and it still says in production.

I am an impatient person and I'm actually going to look at the vehicle I originally wanted (Jeep Gladiator) today after work. If everything goes right I may let the Maverick go.

We shall see.

I have a Hybrid XLT on order with a build date scheduled 3/31.

Listed as in production on 3/27.

Still in production on 4/5 so I called customer service to check status and was told it was at trim-line.

I also received an email 4/7 stating I was scheduled for 3/27 but my order was delayed.

Remains in production today (4/10) but modules populated late morning.

That is not the Blend Date. The blend date is not on 2023 window stickers.

Seeing that “built” date show up is a magical moment …

Just brace yourself for what may seem like the longest wait of all: Shipping to your dealer.

Could be it goes quick for you — hope so! There’s really no predicting how long that will take.

Our XLT was built 12/01/2022.

Didn’t ship from the plant for a full month after that: 01/02/2023.

Then another full month for it to find its way across the country to us in eastern Pennsylvania: Arrived at dealer 2/02/2023.

Just part of the fun, more waiting…

My dates and story are almost identical to yours. The only significant difference being the modules on mine lit up March 31. I may have misinterpreted, but I thought I read the plant was shutdown the week of April 2nd for holiday. At least, that’s what I convinced myself of to avoid clicking refresh every half hour that week.

I'm being built this week too. No blend date. I'll be checking for the modules later this week. Yes, the plant was shut down last week, which is why we probably all got our Window Stickers two weeks early. During the last week of March, they were looking at the week or April 10th builds since nothing was built last week.
