I would be concerned, especially since the 2023 order banks have been closed for over a month now. Was it FORD who confirmed your order or your dealer? In almost 3 months I would have certainly expected at least a VIN by now.
Ford confirmed the order and has continued to reaffirm every 45 days.

If it were me I'd get on the Ford Chat and start asking some questions. You are running out of time for the 2023 MY production. Seems like they should have most/all of the orders scheduled at this point I'd think.

So my MY23 order was place on 09/02, it was delivered to the dealer on 02/24, and I picked it up on 02/25. almost 6 month wait was the longest 6 months of my life. but I am in love with this thing!

I cant wait to get all my planned mods installed! Hang in there everyone still waiting! Your time will come soon enough.


It barely fits in my garage spot. just a few inches on both front and back. Might have to switch spots with the wife!

I just chatted with Ford Chat. It was not much helpful without a VIN. Did not get anything new.

I never talked to them when I ordered but my understanding is that if you have your order number they should be able to help you. What has your dealer said? Time is really running out....

Yes, they were able to find my order from their system after I provided my order number. But they are not able to provide any more information such when my order will be scheduled or VIN.

My dealer told me keep waiting, don't worry, there is another Lariat order (mine is also a Lariat) 1 week before me still waiting and there is another order (XLT) after me but it has been scheduled.

Weird - I can only surmise it has to do with the chip shortage - they are now removing ASS as well as the on board cell modem in order to save chips. I wonder if that makes remote start non functional?

Yes ASS and on board cell modem were removed by my dealer when my order was made.

Interesting. I placed my order Lariat Tremor 501 on 1/19. It was confirmed on 1/24. My build date is 4/17. At first I thought my build dates was good (only 3 months after order) but, yours is really quick.

I did get on Ford Chat. This was the response:

"I see the status as In order processing and Unscheduled- Clean. There is no eta, vin or build date yet.. I understand that you are concerned that you don't have build date yet but it take times and also depends on what plant it going to be built at. Yes it is being built with 2023s I'm not sure what plants it will be built at. We can only see status like built date , current location and eta"
