So, if they're wrapping up production of the MY24 models in October, there's a small chance that the people who ordered their trucks when the order banks opened in 2022 that were affected by the gas tank recall back in January may actually have their trucks delivered just before the end of the year?

As a general rule, anytime somewhere requires a phone number and email to get a quote, they're going to immediately sell your info and you'll get overwhelmed with spam. Solution: Setup a thrown away gmail account and use it to set up a google voice number, if it's actually something important...

Somewhat well known: If your dealer honors X-plan pricing and you're willing to wait three months, or even if you already ordered but it takes longer than three months to come in, you can join Mustang Club of America today for $35 to get X-plan pricing and save somewhere between $800 and $1500...

They started giving chat bots corporate titles now?

Far be it from me to spoil a good o' internet argument, but does it matter if Ford ever installed AGM batteries in a tiny percentage of hybrids or if the decision to swap to the cheaper flooded batteries was made between design and the first trucks being assembled? It seems like no one is...

Being it's a 2022, have they checked the main 300A fuse for cracks (SSM 51598) and replaced the wiring harness (TSB 22-2340)? If not, I'd start there. Give them those exact reference numbers and even the slowest tech should be able to find the correct procedures with mininal effort.

Final update: I discovered the recall on this forum, confirmed my truck was affected, ordered a replacement truck, and it was produced and delivered all in the time between Ford discovering the issue and notifify those afffected (which still hasn't happened yet) much less them actually fixing...

Ford's official recommendation has always been, if you get the deep sleep message, drive the truck more. Apparently an hour and a half a day still isn't enough to recharge the battery, as some people have experienced. Best in-depth explanation of why these issues are occurring and info on...

At this point, I'm going for the record. The longest time I've seen on here so far has been ~720 days, barring people who's orders never actually got placed because of one screw-up or another. I think I have a pretty good shot at it.

Counting from the day I put down my deposit, July 4th, 2022, to hold my spot so it would be submitted first thing on the day the order banks opened again. Not that it did me any good in the end.

Engine block heater and got caught in the gas tank recall. Had to reorder for a third time so my truck would show up before Thanksgiving.

I'm guessing replacing the battery with one that has more than the absolute minimum capacity the truck requires to function while running would help with this, but replying to bump the thread back up because I am curious if there is a way to turn off all the interior lighting as well.

I see your 460 days and raise you 700 days and counting...

Got it on the first guess. It's the engine block heater. It basically has to be installed at the factory. Technically, there's aftermarket ones, but even if you pay 10x the factory price to get it installed, Ford will void essentially all the warranties on the truck.

Got it in one. You're correct. I ordered a replacement truck because that one's not likely to be fixed until after Thanksgiving.

I hope you all have better luck than me... 698 days and counting...

I wouldn't count on anything rolling over into 2025 with the refresh. Being as almost everything I've seen on here is that people ordering ecoboosts since the beginning of 2024 have been getting scheduled the same week, I strongly suspect your dealer took orders well past their allocations and...

And to add insult to injury, Ford has never officially sent out any type of recall notice or so much as an email to the affected people or dealerships. Unless you search your VIN in the NHTSA website, there's no way of even knowing why your truck has been stuck in "Shipped" status for five...

I see your 605 days and I raise you... 698 days and counting...

Ford used up all their available inventory of gas tanks fixing the ones they caught before they were shipped and they have no plans of producing any more until the end of the model year run. The only way anyone who was affected by the recall is seeing a new truck before Thanksgiving is by...
