2018 Mustang Production Information

Recommended Posts

As most are aware, the Mustang changeover has been in the February-April period for a number of years ago. About a month ago I met with our Ford Zone Manager and asked her if she had any information on the changeover timetable to the 2018MY Mustang. At that time, she informed me that the 2018MY Mustang Job #1 Date was set for 04/28/2017. Ford still hadn't published the changeover schedule so when I met with our new Ford Zone Manager a few days ago I asked again, especially as Ford's been saying publicly that the 2018MY Mustang will be available in the Fall. The new Ford rep told me that the changeover will be in September which is very disappointing as it means we won't see the new models until November at least which is really outside the biggest part of the selling season for Mustang. Perhaps someone from the Flat Rock plant has more information.

that's not entirely accurate. During those weeks only one shift will be laid off, alternating every 2 weeks.

The 2018 Mustang USOB (Unscheduled Order Bank) is due to open on Monday. The 2018MY Mustang Order Guide should be released by then but a number of the 2018MY order guides for other vehicles have been released late this year. I'll upload the 2018MY Mustang Order Guide as soon as it becomes available.
