Bullitt Ordering

[OldPhart]

There was a wildcat strike at a bunch of Mexican suppliers in January. As a result, Ford extended the planned 1 week shutdown of the Flat Rock plant from 1/17 through 2/11. From 2/11 through 2/23, all the Mustangs that came off the production line (up to 8000 of them) were made withouts steering wheels and parked in holding lots. Cars coming off the line from 2/25 were built correctly. Ford is now working through the backlog of steering-wheel-less cars to get them shipped. It is unknown as to how long this will take.

Touch base with Ford Performance chat with your VIN number. They can give you the current status and the date of the last update.

Maybe they just took a long siesta... Bruce

By the way, thanks for the explanation, I don’t think my dealer even knew that

that’s even much later than my dealer’s order... and at least you have got a build date!
By the way: how can you have a build date without a VIN??

I actually fear that even if I have got a Ford order number and construction is confirmed (with no date), it might actually not work... this whole thing is taking too long..

Is there anyone here that from a Ford order number, dealer code etc could check the order status?

Howdy,
The last day that a dealer may submit an order for a 19MY Mustang is 05/03/19, and balance out is 08/09/19. If you have placed your order already you should have nothing to fear. If you want, PM me with the information that you have been given so far and I will see what I can find. Because it is not for the North American market, I will most likely have to reach out to a member of our Global/Euro team.

Current lead times are roughly 14-16 weeks from order to delivery.

Good morning,
I've just come across this thread. I too am experiencing a terrible lack of information from my dealer regarding my Bullitt order placed 12 months ago.
Although the order status screen started to show up order movement at the end of May 2019. I've had a partial VIN which has since been deleted, I've been 'serialisation' and now 'confirmed', build date was 24 June 2019 but now 'calculation currently not possible'.
I think it is only my order that has 'slipped' at the dealership, (9 other orders changed status at the same time, but I should think data protection prevents sharing all info with me).
Ford Performance chat can't help as I have no VIN, but various tracking sites etc suggested my order is completely cancelled, which is not what my dealer says
I wondered if it's ok that I reach out to you, given your helpful suggestion to PM you with order details to our Swedish & German members above, to try to check up on their car orders.
Thanks
