Yeah, I got that over the phone too but I was like, "they must mean they'll have ALL cars shipped by then... not that that's when they'll START shipping."
And when I was discussing my deal with my dealer and proposing a reorder they told me that even if they did, it would be August before I got the car because they're just now accepting July orders (June is full apparently.)
What I don't understand is that with all this production why aren't we seeing cars and if ALL cars are going to go through this more thorough inspection process, when will ANYONE see a car!

I sincerely hope that they're blowing smoke and just buying themselves a large window so that they can easily beat their new ETAs. If this is true, Ford is going to lose millions in canceled orders. Someone might say that they'll just sell them to other customers. I agree, but that "other customer" is just buying a car off a lot. Could have sold two instead of one.

Well if my dealer calls Monday, or his Rep. I will pose that question to him. If thats the case i will cancel my order Monday. June is the end for me. So what about all the dealers cars out west, and everyone who has got them so far? Do they have to have them rechecked? There must be something big going on. Ronn

Yeah when Ford HQ called Thursday, the lady said my car would be released within 2 weeks. Did things change that much in one day? Ronn

The Camaro I test drove yesterday is looking like my next vehicle more and more each day. Ford has 26 days to get my car here... not shipped by then, but actually here -@ the dealer or my driveway.

Here again, don't get all twisted up by what you hear from Ford BS. I'll bet it is a contracted call center service. They have access to certain computer functions, and when you call, they are just reading scripts and looking on screens.
When one of the call center peeps can't satisfy you, they say you're going to be refered to their supervisor. These are people who write e-mails rather than talk to you. That way they don't have to listen to you.
The e-mail that I received was full of bad punctuation, sentence structure, etc. The 'supervisor' refered to my car as a Mustang G-E-T. No ****.
Quit calling this place, they are as worthless as most salespersons in terms of reliable information.

But really, if final inspection takes weeks and assembly takes a day or two, there's something wrong with the process. Quality should be BUILT IN, not added after the car is built. Ford needs to fix this rather than running ragged with thousands of cars on the lot just sitting and waiting for this "final inspection."
