    No. 2022MY Maverick production will balance out as scheduled on 11/14/2022. The Job #1 Date for 2023MY Maverick production is 11/16/2022.

    I get that this is the latest official date from Ford.  But I have this email from last night:

    The memo above references December 12 build dates moving to 2023, so not sure where that leaves me...

    How do they do that with the retail order banks closed for MY2023?

    Good question.  Also these MY 2022 orders have already been assigned VINs.  Would those just get cancelled / converted to new 2023 VINs?

     

    Aside from a few color changes, and the addition of cruise control to the XL, there are not many differences between 2022 and 2023, so anything is possible.  I was under the impression that receiving a MY 2022 VIN ensured production of a MY 2022 vehicle.

  3. It looks like many hybrids which were scheduled for production in October are being pushed back, with several people receiving emails that their production week is now November 14 (which is the balance out day for MY 2022).

     

    It seems like the hybrid engine is severely constrained.  What is the likelihood that the MY 2022 production will be extended past November 14 at this point?  And would that delay the start of the 2023 production, or is it conceivable that they would produce 2022s and 2023s at the same time?

    1. It's still too early to know whether all remaining unscheduled retail 2022 Escape PHEV's will be scheduled.
    2. I found that there was an error in the information Ford had provided for the 2023 Escape which was updated a week ago. Ford failed to highlight the correction so that it could be noted. Below is the updated/corrected information for the 2023 Escape Job #1 Date. The information has been updated in the 2023 Escape Production Information forum.   

     

    Per the FDNB (Fleet Distribution News Bulletin) released on Friday 07/29/2022, below is the corrected scheduling and production timetable for the 2022/2023MY Escape.

     

    • 05/20/2022 - 2022MY Fleet Final Order Date
    • 09/15/2022 - 2022MY Last Day to Spec Change
    • 11/23/2022 - 2022MY Balance Out Date

     

    • 09/19/2022 - 2023MY Order Bank Open Date
    • 10/20/2022 - 2023MY Scheduling Begins
    • 11/28/2022 - 2023MY Job #1 Date

     

    The 2023 Escape Order Guide will be released on or about the date that the USOB (Unscheduled Order Bank) opens and will be available for download in the Dealer Order Guides section.

    All dates are subject to change. 

    Is it likely that all 2022s will be scheduled before the 2023 order banks open?  Will Ford communicate if the order needs to be rolled/resubmitted?

  5. That's right, as of 2023 there is no battery size requirement affecting the credit amount. It's less clear whether the PHEVs sold between August and December of 2022 will receive the $7,500 credit or the $6,843.  The bigger question from the OP here is whether the critical minerals in the Escape battery are processed/extracted in the US or in a country with a US free trad agreement ($3,750 credit), and whether the battery is manufactured or assembled in North America ($3,750 credit).  I would happily take the $6,843 credit this year rather than unknown value next year, but that will come down to whether Ford actually produces and delivers my order in 2022.

  6. I have an Escape PHEV SEL on order since March, waiting for a scheduled production date. 

     

    Couple questions:

     

    1. Since it isn't scheduled yet, is there a chance my order will be canceled or rolled over into a 2023?

    2. It looks like the 2022MY Balance Out date is 11/23/2022, but the Job 1 date for the 2023MY is 11/1/2022 - will there be overlap in production for 2022s and 2023s?
