That is ridiculous. I would contact Ford directly and see why your order is taking so long to receive it. When there are orders that were ordered after yours and they are receiving theirs way before yours.
Does your COTUS results page show the same order number that the dealer originally gave you? If so I'm wondering if you can search by that order number now and get the correct car.
Does the order number on your COTUS page match the number that brings up the truck?Mine still comes up as the truck. But I'm happy I can now track it!
Mine popped up a date last Saturday. I ordered on Aug 25th, priority code 1, and it says estimated delivery is 1/28/2018 but with a subscript "3", which says, "3Estimated Delivery date is a calculated date based on the current status of your vehicle which is compared against the history of vehicles in that status from the scheduling system. It is recalculated each time you access the customer order status website and will change as your order is processed, your vehicle is assembled and shipped."
It'll still come in... At least that's what my dealer said when I called to cancel it. Did you put a deposit down? I put $1000 down.
[FONT="]That seems like a pretty good guess. Make sure your dealer uses unique order numbers for each order. You’ve probably seen posts where guys discovered that their dealer used the same order number for multiple orders. If your order number is unique, Cotus will give you your VIN when it’s issued, and subsequent order status updates. If your number isn’t unique, you’ll have to get the VIN from your dealer to use on Cotus for updates. (Your dealer has a pretty good idea of when he expects the VIN to be issued.) I’ve been told that Ford updates their scheduling system on Thursday nights so I’d recommend that you check Cotus at least every Friday to see if your order shows up. Good luck![/FONT]
Like my order number was used for a truck. I had to go by after I threatened to cancel my order and they had my VIN waiting for me. So sometimes you have to be able to stand up for yourself. He even talked to me the Friday before saying no movement (27th). And I went in on the 28th. And they had a VIN and told me when to expect it. And even a build date.
It looks like I've been caught by this. I'm not sure why on earth an order system would create duplicate order numbers for the same dealer just weeks apart, but that seems to be the case. My order number comes back to an F150 ordered on 10/25.
