Has my car been released from the plant yet?

[cbcarguy]

I ordered my 2026 Mustang GT back on 4/16 with a build week of 6/29 and I got the email on 7/1 saying the car was built

it’s now 7/30 and I still have no Mustang although it said ETA 7/10-7/16 and then it changed to 7/26-8/1 but it never once labeled as shipped.

When I look on both trackers it just says it’s built and waiting for shipment.

does this mean it never left the plant?

I called my dealer a while ago and she told me that they have stop sales on some mustangs on their lot because of the recall and they thought that’s what was taking mine so long to arrive but after running the vin she said mine is not affected and it only affects VINs built before 2/16.

but still she or her managers don’t know why mine has taken so long to ship.

she said if it was damaged they would’ve gotten notified about it or if it had a recall they would’ve been notified but she said she can only see what I can see on the tracking side of it.

VINVIEW is what dealerships have access to and it shows exactly what is going on or where is it at. I know our specialist reaches out to the rep as well as they can normally find out a little more.

Happy to help if you send me your VIN. If not, hopefully it arrives soon so you can enjoy it!

I’m in the same boat. Built 6/26, now estimated shipping is 8/15. Moved four times. Indianapolis is not that far.

Same mine is going to Kentucky

Isn't this due to the wiper recall (maybe?)

Mine is not affected, I ran the vin in the recall website and it only affected cars that were built before 2/16 to my knowledge

Sometimes shipping is just slow. My 2025 GT built mid-March last year just missed its train ride to Colorado and it was just over a month from BUILD to SHIPPED. Short truck ride plant to Railyard to Denver to truck to Colorado Springs. Some roll out of plant and get loaded on a railcar, but some like mine have to be trucked just a little ways to the Railyard.
