My car has been 'built' since 9/14/23 and I'm waiting for 'shipped' notification. Seems like after two weeks it should have gone out. Just hoping it's not another 3-8 weeks.

Complete opposite here. Slid to the right another week. No window sticker. Was 10/2, now 10/16. Is the universe trying to tell me something?
The same thing happened to me the other week. I've been checking my tracker like crazy hoping to see it go into production early lol

Wondering how many of you had your build start earlier than anticipated? I got an update today that mine started build two weeks early. Feel kinda bad for those that have had delays, but excited about the surprise I got today. Of course there’s no guarantee that mine won’t hit any snags.

In production means they are getting assemblies lined up, building the body and moving forward. Build date is when everything comes together to make the car. Like you I am scheduled for the week of 10/9. 9/27 I updated to in production. If you look on your window sticker you will see a blend date. This is the actual build date. Mine is 10/11.

Thanks for the additional details. I saw yesterday my blend date is 10/10

At least we aren't alone. This has been one helluva ride/wait.
Looks like you're in Georgia too. I'd say they're lining up cars for the same area to go at the same time for logistics, but not sure I want to give that much credit.

That sounds reasonable and would almost make sense. Mine is going to Birmingham, AL, (where my dealer is) but I'm willing to bet they process them at a railyard in Atlanta.

My salesman told me performance package Mustangs are sliding to the right for build dates due to part shortages. Anyone with the PP get an earlier build date than originally scheduled?

My build date has always been 10/9, and my window sticker has a blend date of 10/10 as of last week. Mine switched over to “In Production” on 9/25. I have PP, so unless something changes in the next 3 days, mine is right on schedule.

Congrats. I still have a status of In production, but my blend date of 10/10 has come and gone, so I’m anxiously waiting for my “built” notification email to hit my inbox. Hopefully it comes today or I’ll start stressing about production delays.

Edit: I know I’m not supposed to worry, but was hoping Ford chat would help me feel better. No such luck, as they don’t seem to have any more information than the online tracker does.

Thanks! I wouldn't worry about it, you'll get a date under "Built" when it ships

Same no window sticker yet either

Mine went to in production on Monday with a blend date of 10/16. The link to the window sticker still doesn't work in the tracker, but I can pull mine up if I try to go directly to it.

Looking at my sticker shows a charge for the red calipers when there wasn't a charge listed when I went through the build process.

Still isn't working for me, but I will try again next week. I saved the link for later. Thanks for posting it!
