What's funny is that no one can give me a VIN but keep getting told my car is coming, my dealer called me on Monday saying the car should be ready for pick up on the 04/02/2017 previously told 04/01/2017. Yet they can't give me a VIN either, so when I asked ford service via FB about this yesterday there response was to listen to the dealer and you should have your keys in hand by February.
That estimated time of delivery on cotus is the approximate date to get to the dock at Baltimore so expect another month or 2 from that. Takes about 3 months to arrive in Aus after build.Thanks. Went onto cotus and I now have an ETD of Feb 10th. Very encouraging. Don't have a build date yet but I doubt it is end of Jan as per Ford AU.
Seems odd to me as well which is why I try to keep in constant contact with Ford and my dealer, but still sceptical on the information provided.
How do you find this info out? Ours was built 17 Nov and was told it was on its wY to Baltimore about 2 weeks ago. But heard nothing more. Is there a way you can find out rather than waiting for Ford telling you after the event?:shrug:
Thank you Mick, I will go and check now
Thank you Ross, You guys are much more helpful than Ford. Thanks heaps!
Cheers everyone! I am not showing up yet so I will check daily from now. Not that it changes anything by cehcking all the time but it has been such a long wait you just want to know.
The early cars had all those problems too and the US guys still talk about it in theirs so I think it's just the standard of production. If anything people seem to say those problems are becoming less frequent, however I suppose we hear about the bad ones! Hopefully that's the case.
I really hope so. Alignment issues can mostly be fixed but its panel damage that would be annoying. But as you say, you hear mainly about the worst cases.
