Tracking

[suzziecanozie]

We recently got our vin# and order # and a build date week. We've tried tracking it through the Ford tracking site, but keep coming up with an error. Am I missing something?

I think that site is pretty hit-or-miss. And the dealers give inconsistent information. Mine says I have a firm build date (2/16) and order number but says no VIN yet. Who knows?

 

[suzziecanozie]

Interesting! Thanks for your response.

How long did it take between placing the order and receiving your build date? Just got home from the dealership after placing my order for a Timberline

I placed my order for a Max XLT 4x4 with cloth seats back on 1/3/22 and got notified on 1/26/22 by my dealer that the car had been scheduled for production. I know some people got theirs in a shorter time frame than me and others are still waiting. The dealer didn’t give me a build date but did say my car should be delivered between the middle to end of March. The tracking system is giving me the same error as well saying I’m inputting an incorrect VIN or order number. No telling what the issue is.

I get the same error with my VIN and order number

Awesome, thank you. Dealer told me to expect 3-4 months.

I figure the guys and gals ordering higher trim level vehicles and abnormal components are going to be expecting a longer wait than me. My order was pretty plain Jane which suits me better anyways. Dealer told me I was lucky to get my order scheduled as early on as I did.

I ordered in Dec and found out my build date a couple weeks ago for March 9th. I also have tried to track my order with no luck

Try this tracker. Sometimes this one works when the other doesn't. When my Superduty was on order last year everyone was begging for information and there were like three trackers everyone was following.

I tried it and it came back to a 1908 Model T showing delivered haha

 

[Mxer0022]

Haha seriously? How is that even possible? Did they even have VINs back then?

Mine did the same haha

We may get a working tracking system by the time we get our cars delivered. I did do a VIN decoder and all the details of the vehicle come up so there is that I guess.

for what its worth, the tracking system may not feature your car for several weeks. I ordered a Mustang Mach one in October and had my vin in December as well as an estimated build date of week of jan 10. Despite having the vin, nothing showed up on the website for weeks with the tracker. Eventually it showed order confirmed and nothing else even when I had received an email about a week earlier that the car is built. It now is up to date with built and shipped, in fact, the shipped status came up on the tracker the day before I got the email. It is fairly accurate but not perfect. Be patient, the truck shall get here. I believe the emails would be more definitive than the tracker. Once built, you can get the Monroney sticker via the link on the tracker

I ordered a '21 stealth edition at end of September and vehicle never got built so it got automatically put to a '22 officially end of December. Only thing I have received is that the order is confirmed. No vin or build date. I have no idea when to expect it.

Thanks but didn't seem to work for me. The window sticker doesn't show up yet so may have just wait until it does.

Can’t wait till that Model T shows up!! Thanks for the info. Guess I’ll just have to be patient!!

One of the quirks of the tracking system is that the VIN has to be tied to a “Special Order.” If it’s a “stock”order, it tends not to show up.
I had this issue and when the dealer changed it to a “Special Order”, it showed up in the tracker right away.

So do we tell our dealers to change it to a special order for us??
