Support group for those waiting for their Ranger MY22

[DakotaGuy]

I feel your pain. This is crazy. I called Ford Customer care and still can’t get a answer. They told me to check with dealership or call them back next week.

I called them today and although the nice gentleman on the phone couldn't do much he was a good listener. He said he told his boss he wishes he had a big red button that said "ship" on it with all the calls he has been taking about it. He did put "Customer would like their truck shipped" in the notes on my account. That certainly will not help, but oh well... It was a nice gesture.

I agree, they'll ship when they can and they have software that optimizes the entire process because, at the end of the day, they're about making money and that means going from order to customer. The faster we get it, the faster they get our money.

After calling Ford today and getting a build date of April 15th the status is now changed to 'In Production'. Still can't get a window sticker. Says it has not been released yet.

Yes they will ship when they can, but at some point whether it’s one month, two months, three months… a human needs to take a look at the system and say we’ve gotta get these vehicles that have been sitting forever shipped and hold ones coming off the line a week or two before they ship. Right now they have a pile of month old holds and are shipping ones coming off the line right away.

I am currently at 1 month and 1 day and my built Ranger Tremor is still just sitting at MAP not shipped. The bumper to bumper warranty on my lease extended 19 ends in 5 days. Nobody has any answers. It could ship next week or sit for another 6 months. So frustrating and people that have been built after me already have their trucks.

Have you tried reaching out to Ford on twitter?

I haven't tried that route yet, but I am open to any suggestions at this point.

I haven't been waiting as long as you but I totally agree. I'm starting to get a little discouraged and my eye is starting to wander. I jumped ship on a Bronco because of that whole ordering fiasco just to throw myself into another Ranger ordering fiasco. Like you, I have a feeling that they're getting buried in the holding lot by vehicles flying off the line that are getting shipped out ASAP.

What I'd really like to know is, what caused the initial delay? My blend was 3/17 but wasn't built until 3/25. I think that delay is what started this whole awaiting shipping thing. That started mine getting buried in the holding lot I think.

First time vehicle orderer here. I ordered a 2022 ranger last week. Xl, supercab, stx package. I’ve been stalking this thread just trying to see if anyone has any info on production times at the moment. Right now the only email I’ve received is the confirmation email for the order. It seems like the super cabs are taking a little longer to produce? Any info would be very helpful

The week of 2/14 Ford released the production scheduling for end of March and April, and If I understand the scheduling that would mean that the week of 2/18, they would have been scheduling those 5 weeks.

I was a week late for that round, and for whatever reason was not included in this latest round, which was announced on 3/25

Based on what I have seen, I would think that the next round of scheduling may be announced the week of 4/15 (meaning they will schedule the week of 4/18) for June Production dates.

However - I have seen the stray comment that someone got a scheduled for production email randomly during a non-scheduling week, so who REALLY knows.

Tracking my details in my signature below.

Finally got my window sticker. Have the Auto Stop Start delete option without ordering it. Wasn't available at time of order.
At least my truck is in production and being built. After 5 months of hearing nothing this is good news.

Well, my est email was 10th to 16th.. I have zero faith in ford's ability here, but here's to hoping anyway.

Have the same dates on mine too, but got built email 3/26. Can get any good answers out of anyone.

There are no answers and I am currently at 1 month 3 days stuck on delay - rail carrier. I am holding out for it though even though I have a feeling I will be setting a new record for delay from built to shipped.

I got my actual email on 3/26 but the Ford tracker says 3/25.
