Okay, I am officially FUMING. No email with my updated ETA, but the Visibility Report is showing October 19 to October 25. This has to be some sort of joke. I'm literally right over the border and now my fully built car is going to sit outside and rust for 2 months?
I love that you guys that have shipped are getting emails with a new ETA. I haven't shipped and Ford is still telling me it'll be here by September 18th with no new emails. ?
Here's a fun Ford Chat transcript for you guys after waiting an hour to talk to someone. Oh boy, did I get to continue to wait. Mine must've threw them for a loop. Apparently I'm "pending update," whatever that means.
Ashlynn: Hi Kristen! Thank you so much for your patience with our longer...
Yep. Bologna. Never shipped.
I was just reading about a similar shipping issue on the F-150 thread and noticed a similarity. My window sticker originally had a date of 8/31/22 along the very bottom. Just pulled up the sticker from the tracker and when I looked this time, that date is gone...
Anyone try to reach out to their regional rep via their dealer? Just curious if anyone has additional info as to why we might be sitting there. We'll find out soon if the Ford employee who pulled my VVR is right about me shipping out tomorrow.

Very different. We have black and grey. What do y'all think about white?
You might be right. He sounded pretty positive that Sunday will be my day, so I suppose there's nothing to do except wait and see.
I have a feeling that dealer allocation plays a significant role in shipping time.
Okay, HUGE breakthrough as of this morning. A helpful Ford employee who shall not be named offered to pull my Vehicle Visibility Report for me.
Even though I got the "Built" status on Sept 1, I've only been awaiting shipping since Sept 12. He says not to trust the tracker updates, as they can...
That's great news. Still noticing folks with recent builds shipping out as ours sit there. Wish Ford would be more transparent as to why. The rail strike is a nonfactor now.
Wanted to compile an exact list of folks who are built but "Awaiting shipment" for an extended period of time. In the past, Ordertrack has had an estimated wait time between "Built" and "Shipped" totaling approximately three days. I've personally waited 12 as of today and I know many of you are...
Just an update to this thread. I purchased a paint repair kit from Scratches Happen and it matched my A51 beautifully. Filled the chip and although it isn't perfect, you'd have to look damn hard to be able to find where this happened. My Badlands is built and waiting to be shipped. Once it...
Ford is telling me no rail carrier has been assigned to transport my Sport. @Meanderthal, I'm assuming yours might be in the same shipping purgatory with no carrier assigned and no estimated ship date. They aren't sure why this is, but that's what they told me.
Starting to get a little frustrated at this point. We're at 12 days of waiting for a train ride just over the border to AZ that will take one day. Going to buckle down and give Ford a call this afternoon to try and get some answers.
I've declined several wildfire assignments at work because I...
Welcome to the forum. "Scheduling" refers to assigning build weeks to vehicles. These tables generally have a list of dates which scheduling will take place for in a given week. Currently, there is no scheduling taking place, as Ford is wrapping up production on MY22 Sports. Theoretically, no...
Other folks who haven't shipped yet - Have Ford or your dealerships given you any hint as to why yours is just sitting at the factory still? Even Ford has no idea why the carrier hasn't loaded mine yet. Wondering if others have gotten any info at all.
RA36 in Arizona. There's no reason why a vehicle offloading in AZ couldn't hop on any train. They all go over the border to AZ.
I can only imagine the ones built most recently are getting loaded first because they're sitting at the front of the lot closest to the loading dock. Just a hunch...
