So apparently there is another hold...

My sales guy just called up the chain as far as he could go within Ford trying to find what the holdup with my car is at Ramp 5m. He was told there is another hold on all mustangs. They wouldn't tell him what it was. Looks like my car just missed the train to freedom this go around.

Anyone else heard this today? Sounds like from others on here that they still have bugs to chase in these cars.

That can't be it... they let mine through.

Of course, some QA guy at AAI read my post since I had a 5 day, 2200 mile "test" and could only come up with a weird WOT relay A/C problem and an incorrect window sticker. So it's probably my fault. It usually is.

If there's a recall on the 6-speeds I'm ignoring it.

That is interesting because I called CS yesterday so they could tell me my car has not moved and she did say that they had a double hold on all mustangs. I didnt think much of it at the time just thought she read the screen wrong.

This doesn't mean anything without a build date/order date/released date

CS really inst much help at all, you have to pry information out of them, especially the holds. When they do decide to give it up it will be a standardized written response.

Who knows what it could be...seems like the ticking noise from the passenger side is the most common issue so far.

Oh well...next Friday I get another paycheck to put towards that down payment =)

I don't believe there's a hold anymore. We've already sold and delivered 9 '11 Mustang (mostly GT's, and both transmissions). And, we have 12 more '11 Mustangs in stock right now, so we've already rec'd a total of 21 '11 Mustangs. We rec'd several of those yesterday and many over the past few days. We have quite a few more in the queue already on trains heading our way now. We are receiving a tsunami of new Mustangs from the factory, so they are coming fast now!

Tired of waiting for an '11? Fly up to my corner of the country and drive one of ours home. Click here to see our current inventory and sale prices.

I don't think there is a hold. My dealer got in 3 V-6's and 2 G.T.'s on July 7th.
