Mexico plant Maverick production suspended next week from November 1-5

[Guardian]

When I ordered my Maverick in June 2021...little did I realize that I was actually ordering my birthday present...for July 2023.

It’s not just the chips. You can thank all those people who decided, during the pandemic, that they didn’t like their jobs and wont be going back to work. Because of the PEOPLE shortage there are long waiting lines for everything, and employees-wanted signs in windows everywhere.

Don’t like the news, but it’s not surprising. Just like the Army ‘hurry up and wait’. I had a 11/15, 11/22, 11/29 build dates probably getting ready to have December or later date now. Oh well who wants a new truck in the dead of winter anyway.

Except it looks like a LOT of hybrid scheduled builds were moved to a week earlier based on reported emails from Ford early this morning. My husband's truck was moved from 12/13 to 12/6.

11/15 build pushed to 11/22.

I have my EB 2.0 scheduled for the week of November 8th....this does not look good...

same here, but i haven't gotten an email yet about a delay. Fingers crossed.

I was in the same boat and decided to buy a cheap mini cooper in the mean time

Praying you dont have to have any repairs on the MC before you get you Maverick - LOL

Just when it couldn't get any worse. I don't have a scheduled build date but I can bet it won't be next week by any means! This sucks! This damn parts shortage, chip shortage, and employee shortage is just killing the automotive industry. I never thought we would ever be in this predicament in the 21st century.

Well I hope mine is updated today. Been in production for a week now......

I went into Production over three weeks ago.

Mine did as well. Still says in production......

I also can't get this thought out of my mind with the recent shutdowns, etc. If my truck is just sitting there partially assembled and something will get missed or messed up. Would have rather had everything flow through nice and smooth.

Same thoughts...hopefully that is not the case.

Just talked to my dealers inventory manager and mine is delayed from 11-15 to 11-18. Not as bad as I expected.

Dangggggg. And I thought mine was bad haha.

Just giving you a update so now I have a date under my in production and the white part of my window sticker says 10/29 I guess it should be built today hopefully

Awesome! Now I still have hope....there's no movement on mine, still same 10/22 sticker. No modules active yet either. At this point I'm almost hoping they didn't start it yet or they can finish it before the shutdown. Certainly don't want a half-built with missed steps due to breakup in the flow.

11/15 is the build week, 11/18 is a build day in the future which is not possible as that is not assigned until the build week starts.

If you really were delayed you would have a build week of 11/22, 11/29 etc.
