July 2022 Waiting Room

[Hooligan88]

Same info, different day “No missing parts, no quality control issues, it’s produced, your tracker will update once it’s shipped.”

I’ve been hearing the same thing since it went into production.

Same here. It is killing me not to contact ford and the dealer every day but i am guessing it won’t help. Seems so strange that the week of the 4th is the only week not updating.

There has to be a way to find out which train company it will be shipped with. Thoughts?

The pic I posted of the map is BNSF switching to CSX.

I think we could call one of the many people we’ve been calling (dealer, FordChat, customer service or relations) and tell them that “I know my VIN has been located on a BNSF rail car, but I don’t know which rail car it is. Can you look up the inventory on BNSF cars to see which one has my VIN/vehicle?”

One of us is bound to have some luck

I threw my rail item number into google and CSX came up, but I never created an account to try and track anything as it could have just been the fact that "Rail" was in the search bar.

What is your rail item number?

Yeah we ordered our BL on January 26th, and we knew it would be a long wait, fortunately, my fiance has a car that's in decent shape but it's just aging and it was time to upgrade. So we aren't in a huge rush but her Birthday was on July 29th so she was kinda hoping she might get it on that weekend, but it was not to be lol.

I was hoping the same thing on my birthday on the 28th. I’m predicting mine will be off the rail on Monday, August 15.

52-A11D O/T 1 is what's on my window sticker.

The A11D is also the order number from Ford.

Where is my BS??????

I’m predicting two weeks from today, possibly earlier if there are fewer stops/junctions and supply chain/worker shortage issues. I believe they left Hermosillo on July 29 the day after my FordPass updated to the rail yard and then went off the grid. I think it was at the border, waiting for inspection/permission to cross when my FordPass activated again Sunday night. My two week prediction is based on the dates from the photo I posted earlier of another owner’s experience. My FordPass went off the grid again around 8:00 this morning.

Edit:Just checked my FordPass again, it went active again around three hours ago and is still active. Maybe dropping off vehicles in Arizona?

Well if that's the case (and following that screenshot from earlier), mine would arrive in IL about a week after the 29th. And then hypothetically, it'll show up on that United Roads tracker as "awaiting pickup". Always up to test a theory!

I’m just going to go ahead with that theory because it makes me less anxious. If it gets here earlier, great. I’m sure I’ll keep obsessively obsessing, but not worrying on a day to day basis (until two weeks from today). I will, of course, be checking on here and I will post anything that seems relevant in my FordPass. One thing I know for sure, once it come off the rail car the odometer will change and the address will update because they will have to drive it off the rail car and onto the truck.

as much as I want to not check daily, I probably still will but nice to have some milestones in the back of my mind!

I’m assuming at this point. Just because when I put in my VIN, it has the load number and I could create the account to check status. It’s not confirmed by the dealer or ford or anything.
