Default 2013 Mustang order ON HOLD!!

Has anyone run into an issue with a vehicle that you've ordered being placed on hold because of a "compatibility error?". I've got an order in for a '13 mustang GT base 6 speed manual. Two options: Track pack and Recaro seats.

The dealer contacted me today and indicated that the order is at the factory, but they can't manfacture the vehicle because of this error.

From the tone of the message it sounds like there's an option or a part that is out of stock; and because of it the vehicle is on hold...

I also contacted Ford customer service and they indicated the same..Has anyone run into this before?

maybe they weren't ready for the volume of recaro seats they were going to need.

sounds like your options are to either wait or remove whatever's out of stock from your order.

Did Ford product support say what the incompatibility was, exactly? I ordered a 2013 V-6 with Performance Package and cloth Recaros two weeks ago and so far I've heard nothing about any production delays.

^^^^^^ THIS!!!

I was going to say the same exact thing. Everyone wacked off to the recaro seats when they saw them in the boss (not gonna lie, including I), and I doubt for was ready for the amount of people that were going to order their 13 with them. I know if I ordered a 2013 that would definitely be something I'd want, and im sure plenty of people agree.

Almost certain it has to do with an item out of stock. Be patient, they will get it done.

I'll try...With the unusually worm weather here in Wisconsin for this time of year it doesn't help the situation.

I talked with the dealer this morning and they think that it's the track pack; so I would definitely be interested if anyone else is getting this same message....
