Ford Ordering Program Switch
Hey all, got a question I wanted to see if anyone else has heard of. I ordered my ‘21 Lariat Sport back on Feb 19th, and have not received a VIN or build date yet. I called my dealer today to ask them if they had seen anything come through, and they told me that Ford had just changed up their entire ordering system and that was causing delays with the system generating VIN’s / build dates. Has anyone else heard of this recently? With the recent plant shift reductions / shutdowns, I would imagine this wouldn’t be a good time for them to overhaul their system, but then again maybe that’s why I don’t make the big bucks. Also, is it normal that I ordered a little over 2 weeks ago and haven’t seen anything yet? Thanks!
I ordered on Dec 1,2020, just got a confirmation of the order acceptance by F on March 1. I now have a VIN and a production schedule date, week of April 5th. Just waiting to see if that happens. BTW I do not have a window sticker yet.
Check for a window sticker on or around 3/29
