Replacement Mustang is in Production

[geep81]

My 2020 that is being built to replace my 2019 with bad paint went into production per the tracking site yesterday! It is advised as being at the body shop now, which my salesman says is where they do the final touches, so perhaps it's already fairly far along??

I am curious what kind of delivery times people are seeing right now for cars at this stage of production. If that is a thing anyone knows right now. Thanks!

My 2020 order went in production last Thursday (9/19) and changed to awaiting shipment today (9/27). Estimated delivery to TX is 10/10.

The steps I saw were body shop to trim line to awaiting shipment. I used this site to check it:

https://shop.ford.com/aemservices/shop/vot/api/customerorder/?partAttributes=BP2_.*&vin=

you need to append you VIN to the end of that URL.

Thanks for the info on timing! Looks like it may be coming sooner than I thought. Unfortunately your link doesn't work for me even with my VIN added. I am using https://modernmusclecars.de/tools/mustangtracker/index.php?vin= to track it.

That link didn't work for me either with my VIN appended - just got a bunch of code on the page. I ordered mine on August 26th and in went into production on 9/25. Delivery is expected by 10/19 according to the tracking site. Where do you see the different steps involved in the process?

Trim shop will be next, that took about 2 days, body shop took about 2 days as well. After the trim shop it was released and waiting for shipment. We just got our rail notice, it’s shipped today! Took about 8 days from production start to shipment.

Here is a better website to track. It gave better info and faster. I kept my vin in there so you could check out my dated....but just go up to the right and click on the box and hit check vin and it will clear my vin.

Sorry, that api link returns a json dump, but if you sort through that you can see the various statuses. On a phone it looks like hot garbage.

This is the site you want to track your car..........https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking#/ I found it to be about 90% from start to finish.

I only don't like that one because I can't save my VIN in the link to pull it up every time.

Have you asked your dealer for a Vehicle Visibility Report (VVR). This will allow you to track the car from Unscheduled Clean to Delivered. You will just need to ask your dealer for updates.

I have not heard of that before! My salesman does give me updates if I ask but I don’t like to be a bother.

This is my VVR from 2013. It may not look the same as the current one, but it should still have all the information.

For those following, my Mustang was delivered to the dealer today. That was ridiculously quick.

Nice - I love that blue! Mine has been built and is waiting on shipping. Ordered on 8/26, built on 10/1, estimated arrival date of 10/17/ I think that's pretty quick and is better than the dealer's 8-12 week estimate.

Mine was also a good bit ahead of that 8-12 week estimate! I assume they are just cranking them out due to new model year and looming UAW strike...

Yeah, I think you're probably right. The ETA for dealer delivery for mine was actually just moved up from October 17th to October 12th and according to my sales person may even be earlier. That will make it about seven weeks from placing the order to driving off the lot. Can't wait to get it!
