A question to those more experienced with the Ford ordering process. I have a DORA document confirming my R order, does that then guarantee that the car is going to be built at some point or is there a chance that it could still be rejected?

Meaning, it would by like my first order where the dealer thought they could order a R but in reality they could only order a GT350.

I never got a DORA for my first order so I'm HOPING since Ford received and acknowledge the current order, it's actually going to be built. Per FP on my current order: This means that your order has been received, successfully edited, and is awaiting scheduling action.

Thoughts?
No, Grunholle. That is simply a Dealer Order Receipt Acknowledgment sheet. They have to have an allocation in order an SVT vehicle order to be picked up.

Talk to your dealer. Tell them you have heard a lot of horror stories of R allocations not panning out, ask to see the email from their local Ford rep confirming their allocation. If they cant/wont do it, raise an issue with Ford Service on here (Deysha) and see if she can figure out who the local rep is. Better to be proactive about it than sit and wait IMO

In the 2nd full year of production I cant see why this would still be happening
Deysha isnt from FP, she is from Ford Service,. She might not be able to release it directly to the customer, but she might be able to do something else to help/
Thanks for the mention, krt22. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to advise who any dealer’s Zone Rep is.
