This is an ongoing problem…

Shocking those who haven’t been paying attention, Ford stated in a news release on September 19 it has between 40,000 and 45,000 unfinished vehicles sitting around. This has been a problem for some time, and not only for the Blue Oval, however the news rippled through the media. With the automaker’s third quarter earnings coming in about a month, some aren’t feeling so chipper about the outlook.

For its part, Ford has been painting a rosy picture with consumers gobbling up its electric vehicles and the Maverick, creating long wait lists. If you look past the corporate spin, the reality is Ford saw production dip significantly thanks to the chip shortage and other component constraints. At the beginning of Q2 this year, the company reported there were 53,000 unfinished vehicles waiting for parts, a number which dropped by about 18,000 by the end of the quarter.
