Decoding the Vehicle Status Code

[DebbieEF]

I have been part of the 12/20 build week and spent a lot for time tracking my build progress. While doing this I built a handful of tools to automate the status page checks and also found a "vehicleStatusCode" in some of the data on the https://www.ford.com/buy/manage.html?reservationId=xxxxxxxx page. I started tracking this and it seemed to show more granular progress than anything else.

This vehicleStatusCode changed over time to show status, but I don't fully know what the different values mean, but as a group we may be able to decode the values and track progress of future builds more effectively.

The status is alway 4 characters long and I saw statuses in this order: OSEQ, STRT, PROD, GRTA, VITR

I am sure there are more statuses, but I don't know what they are...

My guesses for their meaning (based on timing):

• OSEQ (being sequenced/scheduled?)
• STRT (read to be started/ready for production?)
• PROD (in production)
• GRTA (in QC?)
• VITR (vehicle in transit/shipped)

If you want to help compile a full list, check your status and let us know what it is and where you are in the process of your build.

How to get your vehicle status code (sorry, it is a bit technical and might not be for everyone):

• Navigate to https://www.ford.com/buy/manage.html?reservationId=xxxxxxxx in Chrome (where xxxxxxxx is replaced with your reservation number)
• Right click on the page and click "Inspect" in the menu (a frame should open up in the bottom of your page with a bunch of technical stuff)
• In the very bottom of the screen there is little blue ">". Click next to it and paste the text below in and press enter
  • alert(JSON.parse(JSON.parse(window.sessionStorage.getItem("persist:dataModel")).orderData).order.vehicleStatusCode)
• A popup will display your current vehicle status code

Here are a few screen shots to help.

Vehicle Status Code

Thank you for the tips! My code is PROD still, which is has been since December 24.

I got nothing. Just says undefined. Pizza tracker shows as built and awaiting transport.

BWKA

My guess: "Build Week assigned?"

I am currently showing a build week of 1/24 (after showing a 1/31 week for about 48 hours last weekend). I am originally scheduled for 1/24.

STRT for me. 1/11/22 build date per dealer. Week Of 1/10/22 on tracking page.

Mine says: BOTUT
My guess: “Bend Over Take Up Tailpipe?”
Sorry…couldn’t resist!

I'm thinking those values correspond to the 5 steps at the top of the page in either the "In Progress" / Blue or "Complete" / Green check format

Effectively it's the JSON values that the front end uses to determine what values to show the user.

Mine reads "PROD" and it's been in production showing a date of 1/3. I've been told that it has been produced, mods show and had a WS. Today when I called Ford they said the ETA was 1/23 - 1/29, but nothing I see seems to correlate. Rockstars again. I'm not an IT guy, but for the life of me I don't understand why this is any harder than bar codes updating the systems automatically as the parts and then vehicle move through the process. That said, this was cool to see, so thanks for posting. Plus, it gives me yet another link to check.

Same here, BWKA, build week of 2/21/22.

VITR, my Bronco is on a railcar in Dallas.

I am built and released, and mine is GRTA.

Vehicle In Transit by Rail ?

That page looks updated.

But still says "undefined"

 

[Mtns2Climb]

Just did mine, says PROD, which corresponds to the In Production bubble i'm seeing as well as the one on the pizza tracker bubble with a 1/04/22 date underneath. Thanks!

I just got my built email this morning and this method shows GRTA.

Anyone have a similar view solution for those of us without a res Id/order id ? Ive tried the manage res link with my VIN, my order ID from my build sheet (4 alpha num) with no luck. The only link that works for me is the order tracking but it still shows TBD for delivery when my dealer tells me I’m a 2/14 build date, so not sure what to trust on that page.

Undefined, not surprised and losing hope...
