Usally Ford allowed tracking their vehicles by this API
https://shop.ford.com/aemservices/shop/vot/api/customerorder/?partAttributes=BP2.*&vin=XXXX
(XXXX => replace it with your VIN )

It seems like Ford changed the API a bit, that it doesn't work that way anymore.
Update: Thanks for your input, got everything I need atm

But when doing that for Mustang, it always replies with Error 400 - Bad Request or 412 - Precondition failed. Anybody got an idea how get the API working for Mustangs again?

Your 2nd URL works for me, once I substitute my own VIN and order number. I do not know what to expect, but it returns some JSON with my name in the data and other stuff.

I can share my VIN and order number in PM for science.

Ok got everything I need at the moment. Seems like Ford is only reporting data for some cars at the moment.

The big thing is that Fords website is only available for north american customers. The second URL is a connector to the data that can be used by anyone. .

I got a fully working tracker for european customers including preview pictures, but it depends on Fords API actually giving back the JSON data.
