Anything that isn't on Ford's build website will most likely not show up on COTUS since it probably uses the same system. I would suggest to look at the VOC/DORA and also the window sticker once you have access to it.
I was thinking about doing the same thing but I'm not sure if the dealer has any say. However, we do have to take away 4 weeks due to the holiday shut down and then the plant shut down. I myself would be looking at a total of 19 weeks. (15 not including shutdowns)
Yeah I aimed for an April delivery when I initially ordered. It may be a little later, but I would hate to cancel my order now and wait until at least July for a 2019.
Yeah seems there are a few people in the same boat. It could be due to a MagneRide backorder or the production plant being shut down for a little while, or even an allocation issue with my dealer. Maybe all three in my case, who knows at this point.
Very likely your order hasn't had any movement. I have been waiting for a VIN since 12/17. Plug in your order number and the correct dealer code into the COTUS checker and you should get an email confirmation afterwards.
It should send you an email confirming the info you entered but it shouldn't say invalid. The order numbers are always 4 digits and the dealer codes always start with an F and have I believe 5 digits after that.
I guess the only way to confirm if the whole MagneRide issue affects more than just Canada is if anyone who ordered a car with it has seen any movement on their order recently.
I'm hoping for exactly what your rep is saying but not knowing anything at all for almost two months is odd to me. Almost everyone has gotten a VIN within the first few weeks.
