...Should I Be Worried?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys... I'm just looking for some advice concerning a Mustang order I have pending.

 

I placed my order for an '11 GT a month ago. I still have not received a VIN # from my dealer. I didn't think to ask for a DORA, unfortunately. Is it typical to have to wait a month for a VIN #?? I just want to be sure I'm not getting jerked around.

 

Thanks for any advice. :)

A month doesn't seem unreasonable to me. Perhaps one of you dealer folks can chime in.

 

Hey man, my first ride was a Saturn SL2 as well! 1991, though. Tiny go-kart. Had to replace the plastic radiator four times because they kept cracking.

 

It'd be awesome if a dealer or salesman put in their .02 cents about the topic. :)

Ford's current allocation/scheduling system is hopefully a work in progress. Unfortunately, a one or two month wait for a hot commodity allocation is common. Dealers are asking Ford to reinstate the retail order verification program for all lines to expedite the allocation and scheduling of retail orders. Perhaps an employee at Flat Rock can provide more information about the unscheduled order bank. Personally, our dealership can't complain about the 2011 Mustang process; our last retail GT order was physically on the ground in less than 5 weeks.

Thanks for the info... wish I ordered from your dealership, lol.
