It depends. Some of them say arrived at intermediate point XXX, others say passing XXX. On my VV printouts, there are not any entries that say leaving intermediate point XXX.

Ok, I wish I could get a CSX railcar number. Can you call them with a VIN and get results?

If your dealer used VV he should have been able to get your a railcar #.

Can you call him back and get one? Then you can track your railcar with CSX!

OK I got a rail car number I think. Does ETTX820327 look right?

What's the number for tracking?

So it should have already arrived and being unloaded in Jessup but the system hasn't been up dated yet.

Jessup is spitting distance from the dealership so if they continue to move the car it will be there tonight

Take a look at the picture I attached above. Apparently it was sent offsite, then back to the plant, then back to RAMP5P. Your guess is as good as mine as to WTF is going on.


Ugh, my soul is crushed.

Joker,

That status shows that your car was moved from "offsite" to New Boston, MI (Ramp 5P) for transport via rail. Cassens Auto Transport moved it via truck from AAI to New Boston, MI railyard.

Edit:

They are fixing it. Remember your car has still only been built for 15 days. Mine was built over 2 months ago. I understand your pain but now we have more information about what's going on. It's being fixed, it'll get to you much faster than you think.

My recommendation is to go to your 3 nearest dealerships and drive their 5.0's. It will pass the time and slake the thirst.

It says Ramp 5P is in Flat Rock. New Boston has Ramp 5M, which is where I WISH my car was.

Look at this other dude's history.

That sounds like something other people here experienced while in ramp 51. It sounds like they ship some of the cars that defects are found on to a specialist site that can fix whatever the problem is. When they ship it back it prob goes through a final check then gets shipped. I can't see the image you posted because the Navy blocks image hosting sites, even the embedded ones so I'm just going off what you said.

Your car is a pawn in what's called 'Flat Rock Chess'.

It's a game they play up there with the new cars.

Nobody knows the rules.

Jokerstars, I thought everybody here knew this. "In Transit" from Ford Customer Service does not literally mean it is in transit. It just means it has left the factory and made it to a parking lot. Why they use this phrase is beyond me. I got excited over a month ago when I called and they said it's in transit. Called my salesman, then he called back the next day and said it would be at least two or three more weeks. That was maybe five weeks ago.
