Talked to my dealer on Friday about adding adaptive steering because I had read that was a potential hold up for production. I have a 22' Platinum PB with BAP ordered 11/9/21. He told me that my priority code had been changed from 19 to 1 and that they could not change the order. They had no VIN yet. Is there a general amount of time for production once you get priority 1? Just trying to figure out what to expect. Attached my order below.

My first question would be why was the priority changed? Not that anyone would complain about a priority 1, but these days it doesn't seem to matter much.

And if there is not VIN assigned, you should absolutely be able to make changes.

Priority 1 is great, but if they don't have the parts to build the truck then it's not going to help. From what I've read and other experience it's likely the BAP that's holding up your build. Might be the AS too.

Platinums also generally take longer to schedule, but if you're at priority 1 and not getting scheduled then it's probably a safe assumption that it's some option holding up your build.

When I was at priority 2, I had my dealer change my order. It can be done but they had to jump through a couple hoops.

Adding some info for comparison here; ordered 10/22/2021 Platinum Powerboost with BAP. Got VIN and build date of 3/07/2022. My dealer priority code is 10. Seems like materials are sparse but tricking in enough to get some orders scheduled.

I think my priority was changed because the 21' PB Lariat that I bought last year was a lemon. I am waiting on the ordered truck to arrive at which time I will surrender the lemon. I asked the Ford buy back people if they could change my priority code and so I am assuming that is how it happened.

That is what I had heard as well. I am just hopeful that they are overestimating the time to build and the BAP will actually start to be built earlier.

What made the 21' a Lemon?
