Probably no one in the know who can say how long it will be. Just hang in there. There's a lot of us who ordered as far back as January and still don't even have a scheduled date. I would guess most of us won't be seeing our cars until July.

Was actually thinking that too. Hope they didn't use the same supplier as GM (Toyota affiliated parts supplier ).

I hope cars start showing up at dealers before July... or I will most likely have to buy a different car.

I hope when it's fixed they don't just slap the cars together to get them out the door on schedule or try to make up lost time.

Mine has a ETA the week of May 4th. Hope it's on the way soon. This gives me more time to sell my 07 King Ranch vs trade in.

I am a bit of a pessimist. In my brain, I'm thinking this -- they won't have all the issues fixed and QA complete until end of April. At that point, retail orders will start getting scheduled for late May to early June. And I still think shipping will take a good month for many. That puts us at late June to early July.

I sure hope that isn't the case. I have a number of short trips planned, starting in late May.

Trust me. NOTHINGS ON HOLD. HAVE PATIENCE!!!!!

you clearly do no work for Ford or have one clue what the **** you are talking about. But thanks for playing!

Maybe you should listen to people who do work for Ford. Ford PR doesnt like to publizie that problems at a plant hapopen, so how EXACTLY are you going to hear from Ford Directly on this issue.

If Ford Customer Service was truthful I can confirm the hold.
I simply asked if they new about the Hold.

I asked too... my customer care guy didn't know anything about it or didn't admit it anyway. I don't really have a problem with it. If I was a manufacturer and didn't have a contractually required date to deliver product but knew there was a minor problem or problems that I wanted to take care of before shipment, I'd quietly do it, wipe the sweat off my brow, breathe a sigh of relief and send the product out to my customers who will ultimately be happier with a GOOD product in a reasonable time than a defective product fast.

What is the status of the hold on Brembo cars? I'd like the Brembos, but I don't want to wait forever for my car.
