They've been shut down the past two weeks. Now, it sounds like the shutdown might extend through the end of this month.

I may be wrong but I think they are back on Jun 1

Thanks blokes. Have any convertibles been built in 2021 yet? I’m waiting

It's funny...when I asked my dealer about production shut downs on mustangs....he advised that they have not heard of any production stoppage. What world do dealers live in? Guess they don't think we've figured out this internet thing yet.

The Ford Order Status site has changed my delivery date from July 11 to "N/A". Sigh.

I guess they finally got tired of guessing.

I guess they finally got tired of guessing.

I took my car for a ride tonight and drove through the local Ford Dealer. I would guess they have 1/4 of the vehicles they would normally have on their lots. 1 Mustang, No Explorers, maybe 10 F150's. This chip shortage must be having a much larger affect on the auto industry than even I anticipated. I can't believe this isn't being covered more in the news.

Well, mine was!

My build date got pushed too: 6/25/2021

Figure that is a September/October delivery for Canada....unless it sits due to parts not being available.

My build date was April 15th. Still not built. Flat rock is shut down until 6/21. But will most likely be extended again.
