Glad everyone is starting to get there cars. Sadly i'm back in the waiting game since my car is at an auto body shop after an accident already. She only had 400 miles on her! Be safe out there everyone.

how did you get into an accident already?

Guy was taking a left hand turn into a parking lot and wasn't paying attention, the left hand lane on my side was bumper to bumper but the right hand turning lane i was in was wide open. Guy says he never even saw me and came across both lanes of traffic in between 2 cars on the left side and hit me.

Bummer, really sorry to hear that Arngrim. Hope it all turns out well in the end and you get it back soon.

My GT Premium Convertible 50th Anniversary was built April 28. It has been sitting in a stockyard for 3 weeks with a delivery hold due to a glove box issue. No ETA on fix or delivery. Anyone else having this issue?

Wow, who did you contact to get that much detail? all i can find out is that mine is done being built but not yet released. I would like to know that mine only had a glovebox issue.

Dealer gave me stockyard delivery info and Ford Zone Manager gave me delivery hold info. It seems minor, but they don't have a fix yet. I have been told that they may need to send it back to the factory if it can't be fixed locally. Hard to believe.

Sounds like it has to do with the new air bags that are in the glove box.

LOL....I'd post a picture but can't seem to figure it out! Wow!

Love the car - strange thing though, mark on windshield that is neither inside nor outside of glass. It appears to be something trapped between laminates on windshield, so will be getting a new windshield!

Fit looks good although minor issue on trunk alignment, but very minor. Everything else looks good!

Went from dealer direct to Discount Tire for new wheels - black Zevens - and REALLY like them and the look!

Happy motoring and for those still waiting....hang in there it will be pretty exciting when your car finally comes and you take her out to the interstate to see what's what!

Returned car to dealer at 7AM on 5-26 to address windshield issue, trunk deck lid alignment, a paint chip on driver's side edge of hood, and to adjust right tail pipe which was hanging lower than left tail pipe.

Three days later, still no car! Windshield and paint chip addressed today, waiting for exhaust hanger (this pm) to adjust tail pipe and have to send to body shop for trunk adjustment to insure no air or water leaks after adjustment.

So, first week - great and 200 mi driven! Second week - shop! But want them to do it right so no worries! But frustrating! How is everyone else's car doing? Hopefully you are all burning up the roads!:ford:

been enjoying the car. mine has alignment issues with the rear windshield (left side) and doors. but since it's a lease and I dont really want to play the waiting game again waiting for it to be fixed. I can accept the margin of error.
pulled into a parking lot yesterday right next to a 15 Camaro and the guy was staring the stang. haha

damn, that's diabolical. glove box? you would think it would only require an easy, fast fix. sorry to hear that.

eatbread, Kipperman: Interesting. I'm on the "Build week 05/11" thread, and my Ecoboost Premium Vert is also in limbo. EDD was today, but still in Awaiting Shipment state. It has been in this state for almost 3 weeks, and Jeff and Deysha at FordService said my car is released, and awaiting shipment. I wonder if we all have the same issue (and thus the delay). I'm sorry for you both, you have been waiting an extra 2 weeks.

Update, 5/31: finally, my car moved to in transit state, and my EDD moved from 5/29 to 6/18. I wonder what was the delay? I just checked COTUS, and saw these updates, and I hope you also have some promising updates.
