Had a similar thing happen with our raptor. Ford and my dealer were always two days behind in updates. I would trust the rail car companies more with location and timing. Ford was useless. Now mine has been sitting at the port of San Diego for a week(wheels on the ground). Took over a month to get it here from MAP. Hoping my wildtrak order doesn’t take that long but who knows. Hope you have some great news soon!
so sorry, that sucks.Just found out after 3 weeks of being “produced”that the raptor is on a @Ford Motor Company chip hold. Knew something was up since all the trackers show “in production” still. I figured @Ford Motor Company would’ve learned a lesson over all the other chip hold issues from the past, guess not. Here’s to having my raptor sitting all winter in Michigan
The really frustrating part is Raptors built after this build week are being shipped. Just like last time with ice mountain etc your bronco gets put in @Ford Motor Company purgatory while other Broncos built at a later date get shipped. Was here for all that so I know what a “chip hold” entails.
Wow! Really?! Where did you get this info? My Raptor has shown in production since October 25!Just found out after 3 weeks of being “produced”that the raptor is on a @Ford Motor Company chip hold.

Directly from Ford, another Raptor member with same build week told me Ford told him “chip hold” today so I called and was told the same. I’m sure @Ford Motor Company can tell you the same, just provide them with your VIN in a DM
Thanks for the info! That sucks!!! Their production planner needs to be canned!
Call Ford, see what you get told. I knew something was up cause every time we (other member) called Ford we kept getting told “produced” even though tracker etc showed “in production” and given the same ETA dates which for me was Nov 14 - 20 lol.
I received my built email on 10/26. Shipped email 11/2 and got the rail tracking from Ford Chat. When it was almost to Virginia I tried ford chat again because I couldn't understand some of the places the rail tracking was giving me. They told me it was still sitting at MAP. The next day rail tracking said it was at the rail yard. I talked to Ford Chat again and they confirmed it was at the rail yard.
That pick was text to me from my sales guy at the dealer… seem like the Raptors are all on chip hold. My buddy has one that was a week ahead of mine (but ironically the next sequential VIN) and he has the same no news as we do.
That is trash! I've seen several other Bronco models with build weeks after ours that have already been delivered. I just hope this doesn't turn into another ice mountain issue and they sit in a parking lot for 6 months!
Yes, trust the railcar tracking. I tracked mine all the way across the country. While the rail tracker said mine was in Kansas, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and finally California, the Ford chat people said it was in Illinois the entire time. Which it was not. Once it arrived here in Southern California,
