Lots of conflicting reports on this one. I did read the 511A thread, where someone posted a form letter that their dealer gave them. Quote below
" Heated Steering Wheel Functionality is projected to be available late 2023, however due to the global semiconductor chip shortage and supply chain constraints, this timing could be extended; and • I will be contacted when Heated Steering Wheel Functionality is available, and my dealer will install Heated Steering Wheel Functionality at no additional cost to me. "
I'm picking up my Lariat ER tomorrow, and of course the Heated Wheel is deleted. The dealer, which has been great through this confused process, doesn't believe that the wheel can be retrofitted in the field after delivery nor has Ford provided any clarity to them regarding this.
But other members of this forum have been told that it will happen as in the quoted text above.
I've seen numerous reports of customers being told it will be installed later, as well as some Ford Letterhead dealer notes circulating around the interwebs saying the same thing.
Is there any definitive or at least reproduceable answer to this issue that any one has seen?
