Totally unacceptable. Another typical handjob from FMC.
Glad you got a car. I am still waiting for mine with a due date to arrive late August, as it is being built on the final run of the 2019MY. "Paint feeling like sandpaper" is something very familiar to me. I ordered a 2018 F150 in Shadow Black and it sat in a rail yard, with all the rail dust and stuff blowing, rain and everything else floating through there. When the truck got to the dealership, it had more bumps and blemishes on it than you can imagine. I refused taking delivery three times and the dealer had to send it out for a professional detail service. I have gone on record at the dealership if my GT350 comes in with the same condition, I hope they are ready to have a stock unit. I will not accept it.
Speechless. The car is frigging beautiful. Enjoy the car!Finally arrived and picked up. Must admit Ford managed to ruin the whole experience but after all it’s a first world problem only. Lol
Congrats, beautiful car, what was your build date?Finally arrived and picked up. Must admit Ford managed to ruin the whole experience but after all it’s a first world problem only. Lol
I wouldn't put much stock into what they say. The one car I was waiting for that I gave up on....says it was supposed to deliver 2 weeks ago.
Not sure if you think that "Convoy" specifically means that your car was going to move OTR from the FRAP to your dealers location in S.C. but based on my experience I have never seen a car shipped strictly OTR from FR to locations in South Carolina unless we are talking a Ford GT then that is another story.Ok...so here is a weird one......my car which up to this point has been right on schedule showed the other day that it was already in transit by "CONVOY" schedule to arrive on 7/14 in South Carolina. This morning it is now showing that it is in transit by "RAIL" and arriving on 7/15. Honestly, I am just really excited it got built and released without any kind of major hold and on its way so it's not a big problem of any kind like a lot of poor people have had already . Has anyone had this happen with their car? I know the tracking sites are screwy although this one seems more accurate than Ford's which is all over the place. The only thing I can think of is that it was switched to a rail car but again that seems very odd. And for reference my window sticker does say "CONVOY"
BTW Fords tracking site reminds me of this old youtube clip from the movie "airplane" which is a classic. Yes I am that old....
Not putting much stock in what the tracking says has been my experience.
Where are you in SC? I am in Lexington....I ordered the car through a dealership down in the Aiken area which means if the holding yard is outside Columbia then the car will literally pass by my exit off of I-20 on the way down to the dealership. If I can find out exactly when it will pass I can sit on the side of the road and wave....Not sure if you think that "Convoy" specifically means that your car was going to move OTR from the FRAP to your dealers location in S.C. but based on my experience I have never seen a car shipped strictly OTR from FR to locations in South Carolina unless we are talking a Ford GT then that is another story.
Regardless if your window sticker shows either "Convoy" or "Rail" if the final destination for a car destined to a dealership in South Carolina it will be moving via rail car.
I have ordered numerous Mustangs over the last 20 years while residing in S.C. and not in one case did any one of these cars move strictly OTR from the FRAP..
The railway holding yard for South Carolina is located just outside of Columbia and once your car arrives into Columbia it will then finish the final leg delivery with a local OTR carrier.
...or better yet follow it straight down to the dealership!
