hotrod6204 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) We ordered our F-350 Lariat October 9, as of today we still do not have a VIN number or production date. I have been asking the dealer for updates every few weeks with little or updated information. I am not sure if the dealer is ill informed or if that is actually a fact that there are orders from October that are still waiting for VIN number and/or production dates. All I have been able to obtain is the order number and priority code (C13D, Priority code 19). Can anyone on this site help me figure out how to determine where this order is at in the production schedule? Thanks in advance!

Skidderz Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Hi. That is concerning. You really need info from a reliable source since I ordered an F-350 Lariat on Oct 15th and it arrived on Dec 21st. I was given the VIN ~30 days in advance of production (by my dealer), and I was able to track the progress at https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking#/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More information on your vehicle specifications would help in determining what the delay is in why you haven't gotten scheduling information from your Dealer.

hotrod6204 Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 I finally received my VIN number, and have logged into the Ford order tracking site (see below). Still no build date. I didn't think it was an odd order, F-350, Lariat ultimate, iconic silver, diesel. Vehicle Details Ordered On 10/13/2020 Order Number C13D VIN 1FT8W3BT8MED02381 Estimated Dealer Delivery N/A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Dealer can tell you what the scheduled production date is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am crossing my fingers and trying to be patient, but considering the order was placed in October my patience is being tested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any way to verify that they may be short on Power Stroke engines ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STDevil Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Enough people have said it that there is probably some truth to the statement. Until one of the old hats from the forum weighs in, I am going to consider this an unfortunate variable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
