Mine shows the same. It's missing the brain (PCMs) but shows all the BCE modules.Mine never showed any PCM’s but a metric cr*p ton of BCE’s. So in your case, you should be on the very tail end of production
Sorry to say, but you’re probably in the same boat. My sales rep at the dealer and Ford Marketing at corporate confirmed that August ETA.I see a few posts here about Aug delivery for those on chip hold since march. How did you all find that out ? I am also on chip hold since march; and I haven't heard anything about August.

‘23 order bank is supposed to open mid June with production starting mid September.I ordered a 302A Limited on 11/2. Been in production since 3/23. My ETA according to my dealership and marketing is 8/2-8/8. This is getting ridiculous. The 23s are gonna be taking orders by then I imagine. My sales rep said the 23s are gonna take just as long.
Remember, production will may be scheduled, but unless Ford's suppliers are back on a normal schedule, you'll still end up with delays due to supply chain issues. It's not just Ford, every automotive manufacturer is having these same issues. I live not too far from the North American BMW plant, and have heard of parking lots and fields near or on their test track filled with vehicles awaiting computer chips. Some chips do not affect driveability, in those cases, the vehicles may be shipped to a 3rd party holding facility until such time the chips are available from the suppliers, at which point, they will be installed, and the vehicles in question loaded on trucks, or rail cars for shipping to the dealers.‘23 order bank is supposed to open mid June with production starting mid September.
I absolutely agree. The 2023's will be essentially the same vehicle, with maybe a few little enhancements. The chip issue will continue for at least 2 more years. From what I know, every 2022 order that has been accepted in the order system will be ultimately scheduled and built, and that will happen before Job#1 2023.if anyone believes that 2023's will be produced faster than the 2022's, that's purely wishful thinking.
Production is supposed to start september for 2023's, unless some miraculous change happens these chip holds will likely plague them also. Maybe not the same chips, but I don't see any info that shows how ford or others will turn this around in 6-9 months, their current estimates state it won't get materially better until Q1 2023
