So what was your final blend date on your sticker?

11/24 but I learned it wasn’t only waiting for a chip and it was finished in the 12/20 week.

Thanks for that link - I've not used the My View setting - is that something that can be disabled if it causes issues (like your black screen and such)? Given your (and others) issue with it, I'd not want to set mine up, have the issue, and then not be able to reset it.

Gotcha - When do you finally pick it up? Also - I can add you to the tracker here if you want and you send me your info for it.

Example below since it's been a while.

User Name	Dest	Plant	Trim	Ordered	Build/Built	Shipped	Del ETA	Delivered	Picked Up
effjoeb_iden	MI	DRB	XLT	10/4	12/15			12/20	X

Oh and a belated Congrats! on finally getting it delivered.

So by what I’ve seen and read their is no disable feature in gauge cluster. It’s ok to just go in and put your screen back to the way you had it especially if you only add or change a few things but it’s just the point that you have to do it.

Called ford again this week, still giving me a 5/17 complete date, wtf! How are trucks in March build weeks being completed before mine?

Good question - did you order anything that was outside of Ford's normal setup? (Regular cab/short bed, snow plow , HDPP, etc.)

I didn’t add much to the truck really this is my sticker

So I have no idea why that build would be held up unless you were unlucky and had a particular part/option not being available as yours was being built. The bad thing being that Ford is not communicating the specific reasons for each truck being held other than to give an ETA 2-3 months out.

Some folks have found names and contact info of a random Ford rep here or there via Facebook or Linkedin and contacted them directly and that seemed to help in their cases - but others have reported no discernable help. This is just one big mess all around.

Apparently the only thing holding it up is a wiper motor

Seriously? Wow...

I'm putting in my weekly call for the status on the heat exchanger that went bad on my truck. Last I was told there were 149 on nationwide back order and ~50 to be sent out "soon". Last I heard (from the forum this week) - there are now 500 on back order.

Just to let everyone know their is a recall for the trailer brake control module. I scheduled to have the recall done next Tuesday. It’s just a reprogram of the module.
I also ordered the “flush style” tremor rock/stone deflectors for the rear.

Thanks Josh - did you get an email or something on the recall? I checked my FordPass app and had not received a notice.

Do you have a pic/link of the deflectors? I got mud flaps and hadn't heard of these.

I received it through the ford pass app. It was a notice at the top of the app when I opened it.

 

[TN Rotty]

Thanks - no FordPass notice for me. And the deflectors are at the front of the wheels - cool!

Hey folks, a good update of sorts, my build now is in a convoy delay and should be here by mid April. I say this is good because its left the plant. The best part though is my dealer offered me an early allocation on a 2022 Bronco Raptor. Lets see how long it takes for that to come in. hahaha
