Maybe our Maverick community could help me with my issue. I have a Maverick XLT that has been in transit over a month and the ETA has been moved back trice. I called Ford today and they told me it says "delayed, non-normal event" and they didn't know what that meant. The agent said he's never seen that before. Does anyone know what that means? Sounds like an accident or maybe chip shortage. My dealer told me it is in Chicago right now. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

FordVideoGuy, in Salinas, mentioned that they had trucks stuck in Kansas City with no semi carriers to ship to their dealership and they aren't allowed to go get them. I suspect there is a delay in finding a transport out of Chicago.

Reminds me of the infamous "damaged in transit" Maverick going to Gary Yeomans Ford - Daytona Beach. Very tragic...

I hope you are right. It has been in shipped status since February so my fret is warranted I think.

That would be tragic. I ordered it 7 months ago

As long as it gets here safe and sound is all I'm worried about.

There are 38 pages of postings regarding the infamous "damaged in transit" Maverick and Gary Yeomans Ford. If you have some spare time, do a search of this forum. It's an interesting read...

Will do. Thanks. Thankfully mine is not going through Yeomans

This may help

Thanks for this. My Maverick shipped 05/11 with a 06/05-06/11 ETA. 06/06 it was received in Dixiana SC, 3 hours from my dealership.

Now its 06/14 and I called Ford and they told me the new ETA is 07/05-07/11 due to a Plant Hold???

it’s been shipped across the country and is almost at my dealership, but there’s a plant hold? My dealer rep has no idea why or what that means and said he can’t find out.

If anyone else has experienced this I would love to know what it means or how long the delay actually is.

Wonder what that is all about. Mine is only 2 hours away from my dealer. I contacted Ford yesterday and they said June 18th was expected delivery. Wonder if I would get the same plant hold response as you if I contact them again today.

Yours is in Dixiana too?
Mine is going to Kernersville, NC, about 3 hours north. If you got an ETA from Dixiana for 06/18 I’ll feel slightly more optimistic.
