    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    Learned something again today.....had wondered why mine too was green....and yes, I have RWD instead of 4 wheel drive on the one I ordered. I just found out one I'm watching at a Dealer....thinking about maybe buying....that still isn't there, was ordered back on 22 Sep! They've been waiting for...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    On the fractured rear bolt/recall thread (elsewhere on this board), FordMatt (who works for Ford I do believe), says the "fix" for the recall has been out there since 11 May I'm pretty sure, and yes, it should be just programming the PCM to do the electronic brake "fix". That said, when I called...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    My dealer says Ford is having a "Town Hall Meeting" for Dealers this coming week. He says one of the top topics listed on the Agenda.....is.....why the big delays on shipping Explorers. I'll be interested to hear/see if anything of value comes out of the meeting. But I'm not holding my breath...

    Thanks for your enlightening us with your wisdom. So noted............... here's a thought......if you don't like reading it................DON'T...............or as I tell people on the Motorcycle board I run....hit the IGNORE button on me, if you don't like reading my posts. There....fixed it...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    Unfortunately, this tracks with the alarming things I saw when I went on the ordering process last night on the Ford website. They're removing things like the multicontour seats on special orders....even though supposedly they weren't going to do that.....and.....the prices have gone up....as...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    My dealer is small town.....low volume. They've gotten a total of THREE vehicles since I started tracking their vehicles via the website. That might be part of this equation....what volume of cars they order/get? I know another small dealer in the area has an ST on order.....ordered BACK IN...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    Oh I won't be reordering. I just wanted to see what the process and details look like now....today.....almost 5 months later! I'll NEVER order through Ford again. This (and my wife's F350 order last year), have ruined the ordering experience forever for me. I have ZERO idea why they won't ship...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    i went out to the Ford site last night.....just for the heck of it, and tried to see what all the ordering process was like now (vs 8 January when I ordered). First, there is the disclaimer that pops up and warns some features are no longer available. Then, I noticed you CAN NOT order the...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    Well....as predicted.....Ford has done it again....for the FIFTH time. Before the old (4th) window of 14-20 May has even come to an end....."ta da".....what a surprise, they've moved the carrot a little further in front of me to see if I'll chase it some more......now 9-15 June is the latest...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    In another thread on here, I read about the recall and fix. I see where the recall AUTOMATICALLY applies the electronic parking break every time you put the car in park...and then AUTOMATICALLY turns off the electronic parking brake when these three conditions are met 1) driver door is closed 2)...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    So talk to me about the recall fix. You're saying the car automatically puts the parking brake on when parked, and you just have to make sure you release the parking brake before driving every time?

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    Good news for you! Ford still doesn't want my money for that car built back on 14 March. So I did a Durango R/T build today with local Dodge dealer. They swear it will come in NLT end of June and maybe much sooner. So now, it's whoever gets off their butt and gets a car here first. Ford....who...

    you can order the mudflaps and have them installed (or likely do it yourself)? I have the mudflaps ordered on mine, and it shows that is dealer installed.

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    Digging back through the posts on this long thread....I found the posts about United Road. I went there, put in my VIN....got a LOAD number. Also saw that WHEN it finally gets to my dealer, the BLUE name of my dealer listed in destination would become a link with more info. Pretty sure many on...

    was it the one you had ordered, or one on the lot? Last week you said the one on order was in production I thought?

    My 2022 ST has landed !

    Ordered mine 8 Jan.....not a sign of it. Get ready for the LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG wait...................... Every time I complain, many on here tell me until I've waited 5 months, I just need to "get in line". I'm thinking.....yours would be like early October....if it's like most the...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    Wow, another person with the same build date (14 March) in the same boat.....the dreaded "awaiting shipment". Mine says (of course, as noted...this is my FOURTH window.....3-9 April, 24-29 April, 2-8 May and now 14-20 May).....14-20 May. But unless it ships SOON, i seriously doubt this fourth...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    Well, that ended quickly. Got an email first thing this morning after they opened. "Due to low inventory, we are not processing ANY out of state sales". They won't sell it to this good ol' boy from Alabama. Still STUCK.....waiting until Christmas or Hell freezes over.....or Ford ships my built...

    Ford Explorer ST Vehicle Order Tracking

    I'm checking on it now. My wife is from Ann Arbor. We could drive up with our tradein.....and drive home a new ST. Their price....is in the ball park....really the only difference is paying for 4 wheel drive (my order is RWD). We bought our F350 with 4 wheel drive even though originally we...
