Automotive industry is highly competitive. Manufacturers have to effectively control very complex production process in order to fulfil on time customers' orders for customized cars. The automobile assembly plants are the high stabilized production systems. However uncertainty is still inherent in such systems. The aim of the paper is to propose a method that might be applied for quick scan of the production flow in an assembly plant. Authors present briefly the theoretical background of the research and they discuss main problems that have appeared by analyses of the uncertainty influence on the manufacturing operations performance. The classification of disturbances' sources is provided as well as the detailed description of the case study and numerical example.
