Awaiting Shipment for over a month now

[Redsmoke]

So Ford Canada called me about this.
They said there was a problem with the window sticker that caused the car to go into a hold. The window sticker has now been fixed and my car is now ready to ship. Does that sound at all plausible, or is it a load of BS?

Can you take a screen shot of your window sticker if it hasn't updated in COTUS? I noticed that my window sticker has different markings than others and wonder if i have the same issue...

Mine looks normal as far as I can tell. I saved one a month or go and compared it to Cotus today...I don't see any difference

The window sticker on the car I originally ordered looks the same. Supposedly it has shipped.

Hey guys, i might also have the same problem. I was told by the dealer that my car was put on hold by Ford for a "Labeling issue". I noticed that i have a new window sticker (dated 4/13) with different number/codes along the top portion. Any ideas what this might mean?

Mine still looks the top one. Did anything in the EPA/crash rating section change?

Nope - no other changes except for the revision date. The main difference was the Blend date disappeared and was replaced with my VIN at the top.

I'm only at 3 weeks awaiting shipment and starting to get really frustrated. Contemplating if my car doesn't ship by next Tuesday (4 weeks) I'll cancel my order and just get a Jeep Rubicon..

Mustang > jeep lol. I'm gonna wait it out because I know that if I cancelled my order, it'd ship as a regular dealer order the next day.

I totally understand. i am trading my 2012 Jeep Rubicon in for this mustang, but at this point I'm considering just keeping it!!!

May have an update from ford service that pertains to everyone in here awaiting shipment:

"There are a few others in the same situation. Yours was released from the plant on 4/7, but has not been put out to await shipment yet. Any reason for the wait is proprietary info to the plant, so I recommend you keep checking with me for updates. It should get moving soon."

Basically mine is being held for a reason that ford refuses to tell.

I have considered canceling my order. Challenger's are kind of cool...

Your car shipped, you are good to go sir. I'd be patient with that one.

I am trying to be patient, but ford has given me several inaccurate delivery dates. Frustrating...don't tell me it's gonna be there on the 20th if it's not gonna be there on the 20th.

Yes this was basically what I was told...my car had been produced, but was still in the production stage and not yet awaiting shipment (although cotus said awaiting shipment)

So now that it finally is awaiting shipment, do I trust that there is nothing wrong with it....or cancel and reorder??
