Nope, they want to make sure that Ford has all their ducks in a row first.

On the 2018 owners manual, the only thing I read is that: the brakes and clutch to avoid heavy use for the first 100 miles on in town driving, and 1000 miles of freeway driving. and to avoid driving too fast the first 1000 miles, vary speed frequently and change up through the gears...

Of course not. Lol. I went to the dealer yesterday, signed all of the paperwork for the old and new car, put $2000 down. The GM of the dealer and new car manager want ford to confirm everything with the finance aspect before they will release the car to me. So, they called whatever...

Yea my 17 had like 5 miles on it when I test drove it. 15 Miles officially on the paperwork. My 18 had 163 on it when I drove it on Monday. At least it’s got SOME break in mileage on it. I was really hoping to make a track day this Saturday, but there’s no way I’ll have 1k miles on it by then...

Yea.. but still lol my 2017 literally came off the car carrier and I bought it And took it home a few days after. Not sure if it saw rain in transport, but it didn’t look like it had after it was offloaded. No one drove that car other than the ford assembly plant and the offloader lol. My...

Trust me I know haha. The shitty part is it’s supposed to rain all day tomorrow. My blue car NEVER saw rain. Ever. I guess the first thing I’ll be doing once I get home is giving it a nice bath. Followed by a clay/polish/sealant lol

It does, but they wanted a day to be able to verify the payoff with RAV, which I can understand. I’ve already been approved for the amount unneeded to finance, so it should be an easy process here on out. “Should”

Well the car didnt happen today. I was told to be there tomorrow after work (3:00) or so, and we will get all of the paperwork done and I can drive the car home. So, HOPEFULLY tomorrow.

The communication between Ford RAV and the dealer is absolutely terrible. So heres the fun I've had so far. Got Page two of the worksheet yesterday. I was supposed to get page one, which shows the customer breakdown. The dealer got both pages so thats semi-ok and that can be pushed through...

Same thing happened with my 2017. 4900 miles, and they replaced the short block and ONE cyl head. Pieced the rest of it back together with old parts. Once I found that out, I filed with ford to buy the car back. Hoping to have the new car today.

Any word on whats going on yet?

Yea, actually getting someone to answer is a chore. It normally took me calling all day, 30+ calls a day to finally get through to someone. I hope its an amazing car. I got to drive the new car on monday, and I am amazed at how different it felt than my 2017. I just keep seeing threads...

This is the problem that I had with my 2017. If they would have replaced the long block, factory sealed, I would have been OK with it. They chose to replace the short block and one cylinder head. My car dropped a valve, and had a rocker arm and spring jumping around in the head. At that...

Got some of the paperwork today. The dealer had to write up the financial information and send it back to the RAV department. The finance manager and new car manager actually had to call the district manager of ford credit to find out how to get the paperwork done. (Apparently the new car...

Went and saw the car, and of course got to drive it. I’m impressed with how different the 2018 feels vs the 2017. Feels like a whole different car.

I'm persistent and unhappy haha. I hope they have caller ID and can see how many times I called and my calls weren't answered. Its ridiculous that you have to go through all of that to get a hold of someone. The bad part is, its supposed to storm wed-fri, but, that would at least give me...

Well, after 30 phone calls to my caseworkers supervisor and no answer, I called the main number, and was able to speak to the manager of the RAV department. He physically went to the financial department, pulled my file, and it is at the top of their list. He told me that I WILL have a...

Nearly two hours and 19 phone calls, still nothing. Sigh..

14 phone calls placed to the supervisor. No answer yet. Ford needs to get their act together, and I best have a car this week.

Yea its pretty terrible honestly. Its bad knowing the car is 20 miles away, Ive done everything I need to do, the dealer has done everything they need to do, and now its just a waiting game on ford. Ill probably call the supervisor in a little bit and throw a fit.
