irongolem Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 The Vehicle Visibility reporting system will show the vehicle "Sent to Plant" which is the start of the production process which is much longer than just the assembly process. The reports will show the various stages of production over a period of about a week until it's reported "Produced". Once it's released for shipment the average transit time is 14 days but the Flat Rock Assembly Plant is notorious for shipping problems and delays. I've had Mustangs get released and shipped immediately and other that sat at the plant for as long as 2 months. As such, don't try to micro manage your order placement trying to have the vehicle arrive at the dealership within a specific time frame! https://www.blueovalforums.com/forums/index.php?/topic/63667-ford-vehicle-ordering-scheduling-process/ Ok got it. Thanks for the link, lots of info on the process. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gthims Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Have they started selecting retail orders for scheduling on the 2019 Edge. When I went to the dealer two weeks ago he said mine still showed unscheduled/ clean, it was ordered 7/15. The last time you mentioned retail orders for the Edge was your posting on 8/25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gthims Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Thank You for the response. It will be replacing a 2008 Escape with a quarter million miles on it. The Escape has been a very dependable vehicle, and still is, but since I placed the order for the Edge I am getting very anxious to receive its replacement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ice-capades Posted September 19, 2018 Author Share Posted September 19, 2018 Has production moved up at flat rock? I just went in production over 2 weeks early. Doubtful but could be related to the Flat Rock plant's scheduled down time in October and production was moved forward for certain equipment configurations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubyStang Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 For a Mustang retail order (with a VIN), that says current EDD (to NJ) is 11/6, when should status change to "In Production"? Since delivery usually takes around three to four weeks, and it seems that a car is usually in production for a week before it is completed and ready to ship, I would think that it should change status pretty darn soon, right?
