The sequence seems to follow:
1) Ford tracking site has the In Production button filled but there is no date about 7 days prior to actually starting the build.
2) Within a day or 2 after that you should be able to pull your window sticker
3) When the build actually starts a date will show under In Production, just like it shows under Order Confirmed.
4) When the build is complete the In Production button is checked and the Built button is filled - usually there is a date that also shows.
5) Then you wait for shipping.
A second way to see if it is being built is to look for modules using the ordertrack.app site. If you see modules it's being built.
So, you might check for modules in ordertrack.app. If no modules yet (given the amount of time passed since it went In Production) who knows what has happened and you should probably contact your dealership or Ford Customer Relations.
Yeah, that all sounds like what I'd mostly been hearing, but as with some many of us, things don't seem to be going quite normally.
Never got a single email from Ford, so apparently my dealer screwed that up or something, but this is what I've been able to get from watching the tracker, OrderTracker, and Marketing:
- 3/5 Ordered Limited Max Stealth Performance 4x4, w/ pretty much everything but rear seat entertainment.
- 3/24 Order Confirmed per the tracker.
- 6/16 Tracker says In Production. OrderTracker site says Invoiced.
- 6/17 First window sticker issued with hands-free liftgate delete.
- 6/20 Scheduled Build Week per Marketing
- 6/26 Scheduled Build Date per Marketing
- 7/7 OrderTracker site changed Invoiced date to 7/7.
- 7/11 Rechecked window sticker and some of the text strings at the very top had change, most obviously from "9-Normal" to "4-Rebill." No apparent changes to options or prices.
My dealer has acted like he has even less information. Not sure if he isn't given me the whole story, isn't really trying, or what, but yesterday the word from him was just, "It is still at the plant". Still no modules listed. Still no Blend Date.
