Thanks!

The code the dealer gave me was different than that web page says. The dealer told me F71174C but the web page says 71C174. So the dealer was wrong about every single character! But if you throw away the leading F, what was left had all the right characters but completely jumbled!

Unfortunately, COTUS still can't find my order even with the dealer code from the web page. Maybe I need to enter the letters in my last name in every possible order and with a random character thrown in. SMH

I feel your pain. I also noticed that the dealer code number was different from what the dealer had written on my order preview (smae letters, different order). So I am not sure why they are doing that.

Still, I tried that and nothing. I have tried every single combination, nothing. This after three weeks. When I called them two days ago they gave me a VIN number. I entered that and THAT worked, BUT it was for a car delivered two months ago. So you got to ask yourself if they are incompetent, ignorant, stupid OR dishonest. Because it's got to be one of these.

What bugs me the most is not the wait, but not knowing if this has even gotten through...

Hi guys just a FYI, I was able to track my 16my on the wwwqa.cotus.ford.com website. It did not work at www.cotus.ford.com

Thanks for the heads up!

I checked mine (also a 16) and it worked. I had completely given up on this site. It still comes up all messed up, the top of the page never loads correctly, but it indicated my car was on its way!

It won't cough up the window sticker, and it does not show the racing stripe on the list of options, so I hope they did not screw up...

Didn't work for me. I have a 2016 on order. Used order ID, dealer ID, and last name. Dont have a VIN yet.

Ya I had to wait for a VIN before it worked for me. Also for the window sticker [MENTION=22307]ZuluEcho[/MENTION] you could try http://researchmaniacs.com/VIN-Number-Lookup/WindowSticker/Ford.html

Just put your VIN in the bottom.
[MENTION=22840]Libertas[/MENTION] I would contact your dealer for your VIN.
Ah, thank you sir, that did the trick!:hail:

My car exists!!!!!!:clap2::clap2::clap2: Race red, silver racing stripe:D

Delivery date is scheduled for the 18, less than two weeks (if all goes well). I remember feeling like this when I was a kid, the weeks before Christmas!

The thing is, I don't know what came over me, I have never been interested in Mustangs... this one, though, I just felt I had to have it - new!

The mustang has been on my bucket list of cars. Not a big victory but still a blessing to accomplish. Enjoy your ride dude!

FWIW I ordered 12 days before you and have had the car for two weeks now. Also in Phoenix. It got here about 2 weeks before their estimate.

Well that's good to hear. My wife and I will be in Europe, leaving May 8th. Car due May 14th. If it came in a couple weeks early, she'll be a happy camper.

I've been checking my car on wwwqa.cotus.ford.com almost daily. Was able to check it yesterday, but today the site gets redirected to a page requesting login info.

Was really enjoying being able to track the progress of my car ... oh well, fun while it lasted !!

It was built last Wednesday and was still in the "Awaiting Shipment" stage yesterday, and estimated delivery date was still 5/9.

Same issue here. Mine was ready to be shipped. Why can't Ford figure this out?
