Default COTUS finally working

Just tried COTUS "AGAIN" and as I was getting up to walk away, "THE SCREEN" appeared showing "Awaiting Shipment". Last time it worked was like almost 3 weeks ago. It may not work again but it showed me something. The dealer today only had it as "produced" which was done on 8-17.

Wow, when does cotus usually show anything? I have my Vin number but it's not showing me anything right now either. So I guess I'll just wait and see what the dealer says when it gets moving along a bit. How long have you been waiting for your truck?

Order was placed on 07-24, the build date was 08-17. COTUS quit working about 3 weeks ago and everybody from Ford that checked on my VIN up to this morning had it as showing produced and that's it. So hopefully it will get transported in the next couple of days. delivery ETA is 9-16, I doubt it makes that, maybe, if its released tomorrow. I'm wondering if the whole tracking system was screwed up for awhile maybe with the 2016 change over.

Oh okay! I was thinking it would keep you updated from the beginning! Beautiful truck btw. My build doesn't start until September 14th. They did mention I should take delivery on October 5th. I have my vin number now, first time I ever done this sort of thing and the wait is killing me and it hasn't been very long haha.

Having COTUS working was part of the "fun" buying process checking on it everyday. Believe me if cotus gets back to working normally again, you will check it everyday! Have fun!

Hi superwarp,

Please feel free to shoot me a PM with your order number and dealer code; I'll take a peek on this end.

Red letter message at the top saying "experiencing difficulties... check back soon" right now (10:50am eastern 9/10/15). Still hasn't worked once for me.
