You must take infopass with local USCIS and then local USCIS will contact the service center where EAD extension is pending.If possible talk to supervisor of Local USCIS. Go with employer letter that if you don’t have valid EAD on date… you will not have job. If no letter then let them know that if EAD is not approved before date… you will lose job.(take the EAD filing receipt with you.

They will let you in, but they will not discuss or at least will not take any action or do anything before passing 90 days. It is very clear as one of the reasons why you want InfoPass (90 days or more pending application) many people try to get around that by simply pick that options even before 90 days, others select other options and so on. You have to have the appointment past 90 days. This is simply because most of the cases will have a decision by then. Being applied 89 days before expiration of the current EAD (not 120 days in advance as USCIS recommended) is the applicant's fault, not the USCIS. Your wife approval some time ago is not an argument to support your case, every case is different even if applied in the same day. The range between cases approval is very wide and I do not think there is any logic behind that, we just deal with facts.

You've got nothing to lose. Getting in shouldnt be a problem and as suggested, go talk to them and pitch in your case. These are unprecedented times and with your job being dependent on EAD that should be a good enough reason to request some expediency. You might have to be a little persistent - but not irritating - to get the seriousness of the situation through to them. If they oblige, good else fix up another appointment 18 days later. Good luck!
