I had a similar issue. I ordered an Explorer XLT on 12/24/21. Built week of 2/1/22 and sat on a lot until early-May when it went back to the factory to be completed. Delivered on 5/16/22. I ordered a 2nd row bench seat. I received captains chairs. I had to point it out to the dealership. They were apologetic etc and told me I didn't have to take it and they'd order me another one. And I'd wait another 4-5 months. I took what was delivere, the dealership gave me $500. I then started complaining to ford. Eventually i received the premium maintenance package for 45K miles. I figure it's good for about 9 oil changes, $5-600 bucks.

I ordered an XLT on 12/23/21. I was going to FL for the winter and told the dealer i didn't need it until first week of April. Told me no problem, vehicle would be delivered by mid-March. I called last week and was told delivery is delayed until probably? June. When I questioned the sales rep I was told the explorer was scheduled to be built week of 2/1/22 and its been built. I asked why was the delivery was delayed. She stated "chip shortage" is this legit? does having the vin help me track the vehicle 1FMSK8DHXNGA98059 Thanks in advance
