Anywho, can anyone provide any insight as to why vehicles get delayed from the factory? Why might my car have not been released? Any info is helpful.

Thanks, all!

In what way is it stuck? Has it exited the plant to the yard? Is it still in the plant?

That is proprietary information from the plant, kawiguy827. Such info will not be released.

Not to be rude, but why not? It concerns a car that I ordered. I want to make sure that there isn't some inherent defect that would cause the car to be less than desirable? If you can't post it publicly, that's fine, PM me, but "it's being held for reasons I'm not allowed to explain" doesn't really cut it for me. Is there anyone else i should talk to?

Thanks for your time and help,

I don't know about your specific vehicle, but I can say that finished cars don't ship right after they're released from the plant. They're held until enough cars which are going to the same place are built and ready to ship.

Something like that makes sense to me, and i'd have no issue with that. My issue is derived from being kept in the dark, that's all. The "we can't tell you" is what bothers me. But thankfully, Deysha over there at FordService, has been very gracious in researching the issue and telling me as much as she knows. It's just a waiting game from here out. The car is built, now it's just waiting to get to my driveway.

it may bother you, but the information you want just might not be available.

Unfortunately no one will have this information, unless they work at the plant, kawiguy827. I know this if frustrating for you, but yours is already on a railcar. It’ll be there before you know it.
