Pretty sure this thread is exactly that lolThis follows the standard ebb and flow for a new model plus a sprinkle of covid flavored salt in those sore buttox.
The answer is mostly that there are too many variables to give you a solid answer.
And as with any globally sourced JIT assembly line operating with tens of thousands of new components all impacted, units will be built based on what content is on-hand instead of on a set shipment date.
You can either hang in there and enjoy your life or let this get to you. Having any uncertainty in life is new to a lot of Americans and causes an array of emotional responses. But you won't have an answer until you have an answer and not before. Just the way it is.
Also: regarding Ford not communicating well enough with each customer at a granular level: My signature applies to this as well.

A shame that Ford apparently doesn't share your assessment of the state of the world and take it into consideration when making timeline promises. Nobody is arguing that it is not challenging. They are simply unhappy at being in limbo and stating the cold, hard fact that Ford knows their process better then anyone in the World and still hasn't fulfilled a single timeline promise they made long after the current production difficulties started. You speak as if people are idiots for believing the subject matter experts, FMC, when it is Ford themselves that self-inflict, either intentionally by willfully misleading or by incompetence (Or a blend of same) the damage in the trust that folks have with them. Ford doesn't seem to understand this brave new world of complications you speak of, why are you not chastising Ford for that? While a rhetorical question, one that pondering might make you understand what many others think and feel; would you personally make timeline promise in this climate without caveat? If the answer is "of course not", then why should you or anyone else who believes the same be puzzled and disappointed that Ford has chosen to do so over and over again. Perhaps it is your perspective that is the outlier, not those upset with Ford's choice to promise things they obviously cannot deliver ...They literally just started rolling off the line TODAY. This launch is possibly the most unique and complicated launch of a new vehicle in history, with a heritage lineage so to speak no less. Most of the world is barely creeping towards semi normal, including auto manufacturing plants. Give it a minute!
Otherwise, Jeep is waiting to take your money if you want something sooner
I've been on hold for 10 minutes now, dead silence, no music. Par for the course I guess.Call 1-800-334-4375, wait a few minutes to chat with someone and have your name, email, and order # (should have been provided by your dealer) ready and they'll be able to tell you any relevant info.
Hmm, I just called today to receive my bad news of a 6 week push back on my build date, was on hold for ~5 minutes. Just the occasional "we'll be right with you" or whatever it was.I've been on hold for 10 minutes now, dead silence, no music. Par for the course I guess.
Do you seriously believe someone at Ford is saying…”hey let’s make them wait longer”?A shame that Ford apparently doesn't share your assessment of the state of the world and take it into consideration when making timeline promises.
