Happened 3-4 times with my 2017, mostly when it was new, nothing unusual. This shifter can "trick" you into thinking it's all the way in 1st when it's not. I just adapted by always shoving it firmly into 1st gear, then removing my hand from the shift knob before letting the clutch out to prevent...

Saw this today at Bickford Ford, Snohomish, WA, while picking up a part for my GT350. Sales person said ~$109K and they also had a second GT500 (non-CFTP) with 8700 miles for ~$91K. Believe both are now listed on their website.
It would be interesting to know how much involvement SAI had in developing the current GT350, I would suspect minimal at best. Guess I'm just an old school purist, as far as I'm concerned SAI's involvement with the GT350 and GT500 ended during the 1967 model year when Ford took over production.

I bought the Gorilla 61148CX for my 2017 several years ago from CJ Pony Parts but it looks like they don't stock them anymore. Summit carries them, https://www.summitracing.com/parts/gor-61148cx, and also saw some on ebay.
Consider yourself lucky if all you found was a nest. Little bastards chewed up a bunch of wiring harness and vacuum line in my wife's Cayenne causing over $20K damage. And they did it all in one night.
My first Mustang. 1965 Fastback, daily driver 1982-1987. Very early FB built 9/64 at San Jose, had several 64.5 features. Original C-code that had been "HiPo-ized". But, got rid of it for a good reason, bought a 66 GT350 which I still have today.
My old Mustangs...

Who did you talk with at Ford about the chassis plate?
If you haven't already call Ford Performance directly at: 1-800-367-3788, hopefully they can match your chassis number with the VIN. They were able to get me a new Owner's Supplement package when the dealer "lost" the original.
Good luck!
Shelby American is pretty excited about Carroll's 100th birthday. They just announced they are building 100 supercharged Carroll Shelby Centennial Edition Mustangs....
