Mully722 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Hi All, I was wondering if anyone had any inside information on the microchip shortage that is delaying the delivering of MY21 raptors? I originally had a blend date of 9/28 with a delivery date of 10/31. The delivery date is now 12/31 and dealership doesn’t seem to have any information outside of “we live in crazy times, hold tight and it’ll be here soon”.

akirby Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Please don’t post the same thing in 100 places. If you take the time to read through the forums you’d see that there are production delays on almost every model for various reasons, Yours is one of thousands in the same boat. Nothing to do but wait. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurgeh Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 ...and it's not just Ford. Every automaker out there is struggling with this common issue. Currently, Ford is doing as well or better than most in coping, after initially getting hammered from the fire that took out that Japanese chip plant that it depended on for a bunch of its supply. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnm Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Don’t know the answer specifically …. But after a summer and fall of many down weeks due to the chip shortage. Our facility ( an engine plant) is back to full 3 shifts working with no down weeks. I think they’re getting a handle on things. Not 100% yet. But I think the log jam is definitely moving. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
