Safety6 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I’ve had a 2022 F-250 on order since 1 June. The dealership I am using has been completely above board and transparent from the very beginning. At the time I ordered it the best guess was at least 6 months. Here was the original order: Rapid Red 7.3 Godzilla Tremor Lariat Ultimate Blackout Winch Adaptive Steering Tonneau Cover Up fitter Bed Step No Carpet Console Safe Moonroof A few moths ago I dropped the Adaptive Steering and Tonneau cover in hopes of getting a build date. That didn’t work. I have received one email from Ford showing they have received my order. A phone call to Ford confirmed they had my order and wanted to know If I’d be interested in a new car……that they hadn’t built yet. Ice-capades has been dead on the money about how dealerships and Ford do business. I’ve got the right priority code and regional manager for my area involved in the process. What I don’t have is a new truck. For those of you who ordered within the last couple of months and don’t have a build date ………get in line. The amount of accurate and timely information that ice-capades places in this forum should convince anyone that it’s going to be a long wait. It’s not your dealerships fault and and it’s not Fords fault. It is what is. These are unprecedented times where both tech and commodities are in high demand and shot supply, and Ford can’t always get there hands on them. So enjoy the ride, kick back and wait your turn……like everybody else. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ampmal Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Hello everyone!!! can someone help me understand what's going on here? My truck was built 12/10 and said it was going to get delivered to the dealer on 12/31, so i called the dealer and they told me that my truck is on hold for a microchip.so this morning I get an email saying my truck is built and they are going to ship it to the dealer, and it should be there on 01/05 to 01/11. so just got off the phone with the dealer and they told me it's still on hold because of the chip. So, what do you think is going on? is it ready to ship or still hold up for a chip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a F450 Platinum on order as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it is. Dealerships who won't communicate, don't know how to manage order scheduling, input an e-mail address into a text box or complete COVP... whose fault do you think it is?!

Ford communications are not sent out in real time. That's interesting. I wonder how much delay there is from what's really happening until the time you receive an email. Perhaps a week?

Also makes you wonder how up-to-date the dealers vvr is.... does the email get triggered by a change in the vvr? My dealer shows the same status 2 weeks in a row on their vvr... that it's built, but on a chip hold. And I've never gotten any emails, even tho I've asked that my email is there and accurate and I'm told it is. The single email the dealer forwarded to me did have my first and last name on it.

Believe the VVR wont update until the truck gets its part. My VVR has an estimated delivery date from 12/25-12/31 but its also "micro chip at plant on hold" Doubt the delivery date will change until the truck starts to move again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well…..if every major manufacturer of automobiles and those dealerships who sell the major manufacturers automobiles are ALL going thru this as well then? I believe it’s safe to say that if Ford was the only company with these kind of problems then we would all be buy Rams, Chevys, Tundras or GMC’s. So given that we are not buying those “other guy’s “ trucks there must be something that outlines the truth in my original post…….. Close examination and research as to why person A gets beat out by person B is simple……Not the same bells and whistles. For the record I clearly understand your frustration……that being said we have two very simple courses of action. 1. Cancel your order and take your business to another manufacturer…..then get in a new line. 2. Stay in the line your in and wait your turn…..just like everyone else. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know if there is anyone working at the plant to load these for shipment?

The Vehicle Visibility report gets updated every time there's a status change. If the vehicle is on microchip hold the Vehicle Visibility report won't change until the vehicle status changes next. Regarding the e-mail, there's no way of knowing how the information sent in e-mail communications is handled or processed internally at Ford. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottWW Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 I was able to pull up my truck and it’s in production stage and pulled up window sticker and the spray in bed liner is deleted off of it and price reduced for that amount. Tried to have dealer do it so it would not be delayed but they can’t once production starts so hopefully seeing ford removed it there will be no delay. Does have adaptive steering still on order so hopefully that won’t bite me in the as. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quakersmacker Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 My truck's estimated delivery date was updated today from 12/31 to 1/19 on fords tracking page. Does that mean the VVR was also updated? And if so does that mean my truck has moved at the plant? Thought it was currently shutdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh_tree50 Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 The tracker shows my truck as shipped. My window sticker indicates it will travel via convoy. How do you guys track the convoy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tweedr182 Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Does this mean it’s coming via convoy or does Jack Cooper Transportation do rails as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim58 Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 (edited) Palsapp.com makes no sense to me. I can look up my VIN and it shows like the above picture. But for one my truck is on Chip Hold and number 2 my truck will be shipped by rail to Kent WA then placed on ship for transport to Alaska. Then Wrightway will truck it to dealership 5 miles from port. As far as I know Jack Cooper doesn’t touch mine.
