Sounds like more previewing and re-balancing of work load is happening today/Wednesday.
Maybe we will see more scheduling later this week!
As noted above, I have been bumped from 9/19 to 9/26.

Still 8/15 for me. I would assume for us in 8/15 it would only push to a later date not earlier.

I called my dealer yesterday to inquire about the removal of the smoked quartz color. They were unaware before my call but I did have to change my color. They also noted I may have to move to MY23 for my 6/17/22 order. I'm not sure why the potential model year change though. I guess we'll see.

I was just able to reach my dealer contact and he told me my order status is showing "Unscheduled Balanced Out." I pressed him on what that meant (implication is that I'm being bumped to MY23) but it seemed that it was all new to him and he didn't really have additional information.

I'm told they are going to reach out to Ford to get clarifications, hopefully I hear something soon.

I am willing to change colors (currently Smoked Quartz Metallic) if that gets me built earlier, but that was not suggested (I will propose it though).

This is Ford's definition of Unscheduled-Balance Out


Unscheduled - Balance Out

The order will not be produced because the model year has balanced out.

It will be interesting to see if another round of scheduling happens today or Friday or early August, there are 133 members on my tracker still waiting, with 116 being prior to wave-7!!!

Dealer says his Ford contact confirmed that SQM was the issue, and also that they “don’t know yet” if price protection will be offered for orders bumped back to MY23.

I had him change me to Carbonized Gray, and now I’m told my order is in “Unscheduled Clean” status.

I have updated your color on my tracker after generating the report above.

What was your original build date?
