Keep in mind that this update is for the unlocked version of the Moto Z, not the Verizon exclusive Moto Z Droid sold in the U.S. And because it is being sent OTA, the update is being disseminated in waves. That means it could take a few days before it arrives. You can try to manually download the update by going to Settings > System updates > Check for system update.
Once you receive notification that the update has arrived, make sure that you are connected to a Wi-Fi signal before starting the updating process. Also, be sure to have your battery charged fully before you install the new files.

The notification volume was borked after the first update after the phone's release and I kept going after Moto for almost 5 months now which shows they really drag their feet at fixing things compared to Apple and premier Android OEMs. I blame Lenovo for this. Sadly I still have yet to receive the update but got the Verizon security update almost immediately after it was released.

I received a new Moto Z Force on January 9, 2017, from Verizon. It is running Android 6.01. I have the low volume issue on this phone. For my case, the update to Android 7 did "not" create the problem. Other forums document a Security update issued last August is what created the low volume problem.
