Finally got to pick up my Premium, Space white RWD baby!!! I seriously could not have been more excited ?

Ordered 23 Feb
ETA was 25 July…actual delivery 2July!

Picking her up from dealership a NIGHTMARE! Arrived at 1:30 and salesman had lost the key. Waited 1.5 hours—but did go eat lunch that they comp’d.
Car was dirty on the inside but I knew they would detail her before I left.
Test drove her and FELL IN LOVE!
From following every post and forum the past months I was prepared for noise in the cabin and uncomfortable seats…but I didn’t notice any wind noise or buzzing and the seats are SUPER COMFY!!! Pano roof was aligned and I filled the checklist to make sure everything was good to go.
Then the nightmare…seriously no idea why it took so long because I was using X Plan, had Ford credit at 1.9% for 60mo already approved. GRRRRR…I still had to wait for the salesman to go back and forth to finance guy blah blah blah.
In the mean time she just sat there outside the window…I asked if they would start cleaning her up but the guy said they had to get her charged to 100% (She was at 81%) that it was a Ford rule before they sent her home with me. I argued and finally pulled up a thread (from this site) about only 80% and the battery efficiency but they still would not send her to get detailed till I actually owned her.

FINALLY, it is 8:15 PM and my husband and the sales guy and I are the only folks around as I prepare to drive off in the sunset with her…not So fast, my husband notices a greenish hue in the paint of the passenger door. It won’t wipe off and looks like it is in the paint. I am tired, hot and frustrated so we go home with her but know we will need to bring her back for the manger and service guy to look at her. I drove her for 2.5 days and absolutely could not be more impressed! She has been at the dealership getting paint fixed for a week and miss her terribly. They did give me an Escape as a loaner which makes me miss my MME even more!
I have attached a pic of the spot but it is really faint and hard to see which is why we probably didn’t notice earlier.

At least they're making good on it without whining too much. Hopefully, the car is back in your possession soon. The blemish should be all gone and you'll be ready to go.

Oh that is a good term to use “blemish”…I keep saying there is a “shadow” but that doesn’t really explain it ?

Yay that you got it, well, kinda. I'm curious as to what the paint issue is/was and how that happened...odd.
As for the charging to 100%...that is a thing. The dealership is to fully charge before you take delivery.

I hope you enjoy the ride.?

Dealership should prep the vehicle before you own it. Never waited for the paperwork on any purchase I've done.

Nice ride. Glad the Dealer is working on removing the blemish. Then again, curious why the process to do so is (was) taking so long...

I got her back on Tuesday and she is perfectly beautiful now ?. Been driving her around and so far everything seems to be working perfectly. The one thing I did notice was that the “rain sensing” function does not seem to activate. I have the option on in my settings…but I will mess around a bit more to see.

Are you putting the windshield wiper stalk up one from "off" (the traditional "intermittent" position)?

Congratulations! I'm glad the paint issue was fixed and that you can enjoy your ride. I wouldn't worry about any issues until a problem actually occurs. I suspect a large majority of us are enjoying a trouble-free experience with a wonderful but complex vehicle. Remember forums generally focus on negativity rather than the everyday excellence that most of us experience. Enjoy your ride!?
