CoolScoop Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) My GT order status was updated from Nov 11 build week to Nov 17 build day... that's a Sunday, how many shifts are they running on Sundays? But there's still no ETA, isn't that usually listed when scheduled to day? Edited October 30, 2019 by CoolScoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check with your dealer and let us know what you hear. I am starting to wonder if I should cancel my order and purchase at a later date or look at other brands. This is my first Ford/Lincoln product I have ever purchased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check with your dealer and let us know what you hear. I am starting to wonder if I should cancel my order and purchase at a later date or look at other brands. This is my first Ford/Lincoln product I have ever purchased. My dealership got me a free extension on my 2016 MKX lease and just today was advised that Lincoln has offered me complimentary scheduled maintenance plan. Apparently mine is still ‘in production’ due to the rear seat recall and I’m assuming mine needs the seats replaced. I’m told there are many sitting in the same boat. No ETA or even a notion of one. At this point I am giving up. I have a secondary car to get me through winter and I will re-evaluate things in the spring. I’m just incredibly disappointed. This would have been my 6th Lincoln in as many years and third factory order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nov 11 build week, Veterans Day week. As a Vet I feel this will be a special car. I also have hopes for it to make it home by Christmas. Christmas will already be special this year. My Daughter gets married next month and it will be the first Christmas with all of my children and their spouses together. The Mrs and I have flown to one or the other for Christmas the past 13 years. I'll miss Okinawa, Maui, Tokyo, Atlanta, Cape Canaveral, New York, Pennsylvania, but it will be nice to decorate the house and have everyone home. ? Our GTs are both scheduled to be built this week and mine is now scheduled to be built in six days, on Sunday. Did you get a build date yet? My status is still scheduled to day/in order proccesing with no windowsticker or eta yet... how many days before the build date is that info usually updated?

I haven't looked at the build day yet, the sticker won't populate until after the car is built and released from production to shipping. I just returned from my Daughters wedding. It was pretty amazing. I have to catch up on some work I delayed and then will check on the status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see in another thread that yours is in production now!! What was your "scheduled to day" date and when did your primary status change from "in order processing" to whatever is next... in production or sent to plant? Did you get an ETA yet? My scheduled to day date is this Sunday, is that an approximation of when it starts production or when it will roll off the line? It's still listed as in order processing. Thanks Edited November 14, 2019 by CoolScoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustangchief Posted November 15, 2019 Author Share Posted November 15, 2019 Sunday is usually the build week date, mine was scheduled for the week of Nov 10, then when the orders get sent to the plant for that build week they have a "build to day". This is so the commodities and paint schedule can be sorted for the week. I did not look at the "to the day" date. I don't want to get too wrapped up in it. I did that with my Mustang and it was pure torture checking every day and not seeing it move. I'll probably check tomorrow to see what day it was built and what shipping ramp it went to. I'm cautiously optimistic I'll see it by Christmas, but I was at a Lincoln event last week and overheard someone say they would not be getting any GTs until their power center was installed in December. My dealer doesn't even have tracking on his power center equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mine has slipped to 24 Nov now. I'm not sure how they are doing the build date, whether it is the top half or the bottom half, this should be interesting. It may just be the final assembly day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did some searching and it sounds like the "scheduled to day" date is the day the vehicle is scheduled to be complete and roll off the assembly line. It then updates to "produced" after passing quality checks. Somebody chime in if this isn't correct. Couldn't find anything on how many days before the scheduled to day date the primary status uplates from in order processing to in production... anybody have info on this?

mustangchief Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 The scheduled to Day is the day it is bucked and runs down the line. It only takes a few hours to build. The PHEVs are unique in that the chassis are being built a mile away and the body/interior is done at CAP. Day/shift it goes down the line is tracked in case someone installs something wrong, or a machine/welder produces bad welds. It will make it interesting since they are being assembled apart. Just wondering out loud if it will have two dates, or they are trying to run them at the same time. slipping is normal if a commodity doesn't arrive or doesn't pass quality checks, it is why I don't get wrapped up in the stress of "OMG, my date slipped, what is going on Lincoln" LOL those people drive me crazy.

CoolScoop Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 (edited) Looks like those on other forums who had GT orders with scheduled build weeks of 11/04 and 11/11 have also slipped. It appears OKTB hasn't been issued for the new hybrid line at the MOD Center yet... plus the GTs EPA ratings haven't been released yet either.

CoolScoop Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 (edited) It's finally been produced! The hybrids don't seem to be following normal status timelines, here's mine so far: 11/22 - window sticker released with 12/02 blend date, but no invoice generated 12/01 - the date near the center of bottom boarder on window sticker changed from 11/22 to 12/01, blend date remained 12/02 12/04 - dealer received the invoice 12/05 - produced date 12/22 - eta end date So it's looking like "my wife's" Christmas present will be arriving just in time!!!

Mine followed the same timeline until eta end date instead status changed to "shipped offsite" Maybe it has been selected to be a crash test victim?
