Thanks for clueing me in! You’re right, & there it is. Module data. Beautiful module data. It’s alive!

I don't see any... There should be a bunch of data.. lots between the blue header and the End of information

 

[MJE]

That's not module data yet. When the BCE modules populate you know the unit has had power applied.

Ah I see. Oops. Guess I got my hopes up just a little much…

Thanks. Here I was thinking that it showed anything at all was a good sign. Oops!

Still purgatory for you. What is your build week?

Still purgatory for you. What is your build week?

Last I knew it was 5/16. Still showing ‘in production’ though. Not sure how quick it rolls through the line. LOL been trying not to think about it too much & just keep using what I’ve got for now. After all there’s something to be said for every car out there especially the one you have.

I'm driving a 2001 mercury cougar and the transmission was acting weird tonight... First gear was like neutral.. actually rolled backwards in first gear down hill .. ugh... Not looking forward to dealing with this

Towards the top right corner of the window sticker is your line order. Mine was 1354/1710. I surmise that the denominator is the total scheduled units for the week, which would put my build towards the 5th production day of the week. Also, the current timeline seems to be 17(ish) days from the invoice date (found on ordertrack or special order box on window sticker) since the plant is running roughly 10 days behind schedule. Those data should give you a ballpark for when to expect things to happen with your build if you care to swim in the obsession pool with some of us.

How many times have you checked the status today? Only about 5 for me . After I got module data ... It was more than I can count...

I don't count in order to hide my shame. Now I'm on a 5P-5A shift basically watching paint dry, so I'm sure I'll need to donate to the tracker app to help cover the website hit costs.

Oh wow yeah you must be in a rush to make sure your order gets here! But…
Still, if you do fix it, those cougars were nice cars! Sad to think how long it’s been since I’ve seen one. I hate to think probably about as long as I’ve seen any Cougar left on the roads actually.

Happy birthday to me!

It is absolutely untrue and saying so just proves that lying is still hardwired into the DNA of car salespersons. I stopped by my dealership the week mine was scheduled because I happened to be in town (other end of the county, 35 minutes away, I happened to be in the area for other reasons), and after I got the salesman to look up the order it was scheduled to a week and had a VIN. The tracker didn't update and the email didn't go out until the next day. Dealerships have 24/7 access to the vehicle visibility report which has a real time status (date and time stamps) for every major action taken for a build. This thread has a picture of one. This is the information available at all times to a dealership. They are apparently just reluctant to share it with customers. Maintaining an air of mystery might have been a working paradigm before the internet, but it's a failure of customer service in the information age.

Thanks for showing the visibility report. So when a car is Schedule to Day, it means that’s the day it is target to be built completely. It looks that car in the report hit that day. And the schedule for week is basically the week they expect to start building the car.

well.. there is no doubt salesmen in the dealership doesn’t share any of this unless you go ask for it.

I got from my dealer (after the tooth extraction procedure) that mine was scheduled for 5/21. It was obviously not built on that day. I assume Ford is less communicative because they don't want to admit how far behind they are on everything.

Well happy birthday to your BL

you are right, looks like in May, the plant is running 10 days behind schedule. I hope they have already considered that for scheduling June dates so my 6/25 day will hold.

I wonder if it's the tow or the premium package holding mine up. It's wild that yours is built and ready to ship before I've even got a build week. Again, I wish I could understand Ford's process.
