  1. Officially 5 weeks in to this "Micro Chip Hold". Continue to watch more and more be delivered to dealerships all over the country, that have the same things as mine, that went in to production weeks after mine. None within 500 miles of me, and prices are anywhere from $5k to $10K more then mine, with the same stuff in them.

    Yep, last week I began tracking a few dealer orders that I found in my area, and found a few that went from order to production to in transit in the span of a few days, all within the last three weeks. Mine is sitting with yours, on a lot waiting for chips. I was told yesterday that mine is scheduled for chip install 4/23-4/29. Hopefully they'll get these off of the lot and onto a train quickly!  

    Those are the dates mine has said since the beginning. Originally I was told those were my estimated delivery date. My Sales Manager told me yesterday that those are actually the start and end date they expect for the chip install. I keep seeing more and more people saying they are being given those dates. Hopefully that is a good sign, and all of ours can start getting shipped out in the next week or two.

    It’s funny how the dealer i work for that has stock units ordered after mine are built already and 1 just got delivered and 2nd will be here next week. But mine Is on chip hold. Was built 3/25 but still sitting waiting for chip

    Definitely Interesting, isn't it?

    Damn I was hoping we were past some of the chip issues on these scheduled vehicles. Any idea which chip is the hold up currently?

    Well, different people seem to tell me different things. Possible a chip for the HD Tow Package for the breaking. Not 100% sure though. I can't even track my truck right now on the Ford Tracking. It comes up and says Invalid VIN.

    Mine is scheduled to be built April 26, hoping it arrives by week of May 15. Very tight for sure but have trip planned and has been on order since November. 

    Mine was "Built" 3/24 and been sitting waiting on a chip. My ETA for delivery just got bumped from 4/29 to 5/18. I have multiple trips planned the next 2 months. My dealer told me Thursday to just plan on driving my current vehicle.

    I honestly believe there is more to chip hold purgatory than wiper motors. I have been in the parking lot for over a month now. At 2640/week, there should be way more than 3400 waiting on motors

    Yes, you are probably right. Seems way to easy to just be wiper motors, and they have to be just stacking up. I am also sure, as they are getting the parts/chips in, they are not going back to the older ones in the lot and putting them in those first. If we are at the back of the lot, who knows how long they may sit there. Seems like you may be towards the back of the lot if you have been waiting that long. Hopefully you have a dealership that's more cooperative then mine with helping you. 

  7. Thanks for the info. I’m assuming mine is one of the other 2200 that didn’t get a motor then. Is there any talk when they are expecting more? Or how often they plan to get them in? If you all are in full production, seems like more and more will just keep stacking up unless there is a steady supply of motors coming in. Hopefully mine wasn’t put at the back of the lot somewhere, lol. 

  8. Got an email from Ford last night. Says although my truck is in production, they need more time to finish it. Seems like a lot of people got the email who are waiting for cars from the KTP. Was hoping for better news this morning, and not that it’s been delayed more.

    @Cadet7263 did you get the update about build complete and micro chip hold from the standard ford status update or did your dealer have to get that info?

    My dealer told me by checking their system. But my dealer said they do not have a contact at the factory to inquire further as to what exactly it is waiting on. I’m only hoping at this point it is a wiper motor and they do come in this Friday.

  10. Glad to be part of this group. Currently Drive a 2016 Ford Expedition EL XLT. I have a 2022 Ford Expedition Max 303A on order since 11/5/22. Appears to be built and moved offsite waiting on a "Micro Chip".
