Have VIN for my new car and want to track it's build in the Canada plant but when I go to the VEHICLE TRACKING Forum I am not afforded the opportunity to ask for that TRACKING -- RED MESSAGE ON PAGE SAYS I MUST HAVE 10 POSTS TO POST ON THAT FORM.

I think you need 10 posts on blue oval forums in general, not only that specific forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabulousWu Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I think you need 10 posts on blue oval forums in general, not only that specific forum. I really want to track my new Edge so I am going to assume you are right and you need 10 overall! Hope to get some info. over there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustang-92 Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Get involved in this forum and maybe someone will take pity on you... I think I am the only one on the other forum that requested tracking of a vehicle and never got a single reply. I don't mind getting involved in a forum IF I have something relevant to contribute, but just to add to my reply counter seems counter productive. I have been very excited looking forward to my new MKX and hoped to add to that excitement with a status update, but it is not going to happen apparently. (vin: 2LMDJ8JK7BBJ03835) I guess I am destined to wait for the salesman to call me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one date that I is for 01 Sep 2010. If it is anything like the Explorer that I bought last year, it won't be built until sometime during the week of 27 Sept. Now, I don't work for Ford, I just have learned to read the on-line window stickers. So I would say you won't be seeing it until mid to late October.

Wondring if you know what the codes on the top of the window sticker mean. I have a 2011 Edge on order and have received vin and printed the window sticker. At the top there is an area divided into 10 spaces with words underneath and a code above as follows - CERT (UTC), CERT, CERT, TRD (U), RAMP ®, BUMP (BM), CAMP, BOOK, AFV, FSCP (X)) . Do you have any idea what these codes mean? CRC told me vehicle is "In Production" but nothing else. Thanks for any insight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your dealer can give you the same information that Cyberdman can and you are paying them a commission when you buy your car - make them earn it.

samsmkx Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Your dealer can give you the same information that Cyberdman can and you are paying them a commission when you buy your car - make them earn it. I've been in constant contact with my dealer and so far they are no help. All they can seem to tell me is that it's in transit. I find it hard to believe that with a VIN they can't get more information than that. This whole process has been very frustrating to me and that's why i'm looking to alternate sources for information. I've even called Ford customer service directly and they haven't been able to help either. This is my first Lincoln/Ford purchase and so far i'm unimpressed. If I didn't love the MKX so much when I test drove it i'd be tempted to buy something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to at least put your VIN number here, we should be able to look up the window sticker on-line and give you an idea of where it might be in the process.

harddrive747 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Thank you for any help you can provide. VIN : 2LMDJ8JK6BBJ03339 The window sticker can be found here. The vehicle was invoiced on 13 Aug 2010 and I would assume that it is in transit, since it has been over a month. I see that you have 12 post, so you can go to the vehicle locator and have cyberman look up the rest of the information. I don't have access to Ford's internal tracking system.

dreamss Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 I've been in constant contact with my dealer and so far they are no help I think that is the general consensus I've been reading, I to also tried to find out my VIN from the dealer, they told me I would only get it around 4 - 5 weeks after they submitted the order...I've read that people were getting their VIN's in less that 2. I almost feel like I'm bothering the dealer when I call for an update. I hear cyberman is the man, just need to get my VIN and 10 posts!

Tony Someone at your dealer can get the same information that Cyberdman can get - it is just a matter of convincing them to do it. I got my Vin after about 4 weeks.

harddrive747 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Thank you, Hardrive. That was fast. Can one tell the build date from the sticker? Thanks again. No, because it isn't printed on it. If it is anything like my truck from last year, it will probably be built the week of 01 Nov 2010. Cyberdman would have more information, but you need to post a lot more on this site so that you can post there to get full information.
