Seems like a lot of people understandably are excited when they get the built notification. It's kind of like congrats, your car didn't get held up in production and will soon be on its way. As much as we all hope they'd get delivered as quickly as possible, that's simply not the case. When your car is built it's slotted into a Ford delivery schedule which the consumer and dealer simply don't have access to or knowledge of. That said, How long did it take from getting the built notification to the car arriving at your dealer?

It is being shipped by "Convoy" to Lexington, KY dealership. The ETA has changed three times since last Tuesday. I knew that the dealership was not able to pick up the vehicle, but was hoping that I could. I am just worried that the vehicle was damaged during the severe storms we has this past weekend in Kentucky. Especially, in central Kentucky with baseball-sized hail. Hopefully, they keep the vehicles in a warehouse and not out in the elements.

It has been almost two weeks, and still, no update to reflect "Shipped". Too bad I can't drive to Louisville and keep up my vehicle, I am only an hour and a half away in Richmond, KY. Does it always take this long to ship a vehicle?

Getting closer!! Should only take a few days to be delivered to the dealership once it is complete.

Ordered on 4/1, and received an email update that build week was the week of 5/30. Just received an email and the build week has been pushed back two weeks to 6/12. Also, the tracker has reverted back to "Order Confirmed". I know that the production has ramped up quite a bit at the Lousiville Assembly Plant. How many times has the build week been updated for others in this forum?

Does anyone have Atlas Blue Metallic photos? I am hoping that the color is the same as the pre-production photos.

That you for the information, I was not sure when the window sticker was available. Hopefully, this vehicle won't have any issues since it is being built right after Memorial Day. The last Escape I got had a few issues that stemmed from the factory.

Finally, have an update on the tracking system. Went from "Order Confirmed" to "Scheduled" on April 28th. Still no window sticker, but I am able to verify that the moon roof and hands-free, liftgate are still included in my order and build. Fingers crossed I will have a window sticker soon.

I received an email last week that my vehicle is scheduled for production the week of May 29, 2023. However, when I track the status all I see is that my order has been confirmed. Am I missing something, or will it be updated the closer it gets. I have seen others that have checkmarks on each circle.

That was one of the colors I going to get, but went with Atlas Blue. I have heard it is a beautiful color.

That is great news!!! I also received an email a few minutes ago with a build date of 5/29. No window sticker is available yet, but I was able to check the order details and do see that the moon roof is still on, so that is a good thing. I hope that this is a sign that things are starting to pick back up with production.

I am a bit worried; I ordered my ST Select on 4/1 with the Vista Moon roof, Tow Package, and a few other options. I was not made aware of the Vista Moon roof shortage but keep checking with the dealership to make sure my order remains the same from when I signed off on it. I did get an email on 4/3 that my order has been confirmed and that I would be updated throughout the process. Do I need to worry, that my order will be changed without my permission? Also, if it is changed, I will not be taking ownership, as it is not what I ordered.
