Teener Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Hi everyone! Wondering if anybody can shed some light on the situation I recently encountered. Ordered a Super Duty in October and had all the constraint items on it so I wasn't worried about waiting. Have buyers order with confirmed ford order specs/pricing along with deposit and copy of DL for submission to ford as a retail order. The dealer reached out to me last Friday and stated that they received notice from Ford that their retail orders with 5th wheel gooseneck prep (53W) would need to have that option removed if the customer wanted it built. Based on the email it referenced constraints at the mod center not so much material shortages. It affected 10 or so of their orders and they stated that Ford would not build the trucks if the option was not removed. In fear of having to reorder a 23my with higher pricing and longer waits, I agreed to remove the option. They offered to install it at the dealer or obtain the parts for me and I can install myself since I was a technician for years. Has anyone else heard of dealers receiving correspondence from Ford recently about this issue? Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sh6l9by Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 BEAUTIFUL truck. More wheels then the one I’m waiting for but love the color. Is that a bed liner I think I see? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just texted my sales rep to get update. Nothing back yet. You must live next door to plant ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt.Bake Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I'm in the same boat as most here: 2022 F450 Lariat ordered/ confirmed on 10/20, went into Production on 2/7/22, showing built on 2/11/22. As of this morning I received my fifth estimated delivery date. Originally slated to be delivered 2/24, then went to 2/20, 3/2, 2/21, and now 3/12. My dealer is about 25 minutes away from the Kentucky Truck Plant in Louisville. I was just curious to see how long most were waiting for delivery after your trucks were showing built. Thanks!

The community here is hungry for more information about the status of their orders, in part because the Ford.com order tracking is GARBAGE. I'd argue that if there were better order tracking information available, there would be fewer questions / calls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I won’t disagree with you, blowing up JCTs phone cause your truck is sitting in a rail yard isn’t a good idea. Taking the notes/restraints information and calling your dealer and changing your order 10 times to get your truck faster isn’t good either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
35FordTudor Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 My 2022 F350 was built on 2/9/22, waiting on the delivery between 2/14 and 2/20 as of today, no new information. I’m only 1-1/2 hours away from the plant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulling it down and stopping calls is a separate issue. I could call the actual trucking company that runs the local lot, but I won’t. Palsapp was just a way to try and see what it was doing without bothering anyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you used it how it was intended to be used by the public. There are people who were calling JCT wanting to know why their truck was just sitting in the yard and not moving. I’m sure they were getting hundreds of calls a day for that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yours is first that I have heard for an outright statement of ‘we won’t build it’. All of us know about ‘we won’t build it’ for stock orders, but not for confirmed retail orders. Was it just a ‘longer wait’ statement, or a ‘we won’t build it’? the dealer installed option is normally around $1200 or so, while the factory is half that. Did your dealer work out something with ford so that the dealer installed option is similar in price?

Did your dealer work out something with ford so that the dealer installed option is similar in price? Correct, the dealer told me that they have been informed it would not get built. Seemed a little weird to me, but I work for a heavy truck dealer and many things have changed in the last couple of years. I should also comment that I know the GM of the dealer I'm working with and I hope they wouldn't do me wrong. It shows retail on my paperwork, but if it wasn't submitted as a retail order they would be asking me to remove adaptive steering and the spray-in bedliner too. As far as installing the option after the fact they are going to research a part number and price to get back to me. Working at a dealer myself looking this up usually requires finding a VIN that had the option from the factory to locate part numbers. I really wanted it from the factory but am fully capable of doing it myself as I have a hoist and all the necessary tools. The downside will be having to cut the bedliner around the bed mounting bolts to remove it. Just want to make sure that the kit they look up is complete. It needs to include hardware/brackets, factory harness, and bed sidewall passthrough/plugin. In the build data selection, it references 12/7 pin ports. I believe the 12 includes the trailer tire pressure monitor wiring which I plan to utilize. Really hope this doesn't turn into a mess...

I’ve looked over all the schematics for adaptive steering on the 22 from what I could find the connector for adaptive steering is specific to the 22 only. My thought process was to get a wheel from a 21 or 20 but the connector is different. If ford can’t build the trucks with it, I highly doubt you can go to the dealer and get the wheel ordered. This is just my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
