i definitely feel your frustration and I’m on the verge of cancelling due to the horrible customer service and lack of consideration for us. I have to leave the state this weekend on a family emergency and have been trying to get a response from my SA and delivery center in hopes to coordinate...

wish that was the case for me, the SA's seem to be just giving a generic "it will be ready when it's ready" status. wished I'd at least get a preliminary message about a potential pickup

same ordered on 10/21 and still no VIN :(

I'd try giving them a call to see. Might be some minor issue with your application especially if you've already made it to the final review. Seems like they were powering through apps through October so you never know but seeing as you have pickup tomorrow and if you aren't willing to wait then...

spoke to a rep and apparently they have many more orders than what they are actually able to fulfil so this is why they only give us the 3 day window and simply pass the VIN onto someone else. Still pretty shitty that they gotta do that, they should give us much more realistic time frames for...

called a rep and they noted that any vehicles we see in inventory are "pre-production" so essentially this is a one stop shop for people who don't want to custom build their order. Anything we see in inventory isn't actually at the location :(

still no VIN on a 10/21 LR white/black interior/18" aeros in Los Angeles. See a couple LR's for my configuration in inventory but so far have not been paired with anything. Will be calling delivery center today to get an update on the hold up since my SA is non-responsive

nice, keep us updated on your delivery and thank you! keeping all fingers crossed! :)

hopefully those of us waiting on VINs for buena park aren't too far behind in getting assigned, congrats! :)

Are they not offering the free supercharging for a year if you take delivery by 12/31?! :(

just checked still nothing... super bummed because I ordered 10/21 yet I keep seeing others with later order dates being placed with vins :( been emailing the delivery center and my SA but no one has really been responding or giving me much of an update just the generic, “we are waiting for you...

congrats! i have a very unresponsive SA but have luckily been able to get ahold of my delivery center's email and have been in contact with them. hopping to get a VIN and delivery soon

the delivery time at 12:01 am might be accurate but from what I've been informed it usually takes about a day or 2 for them to inspect the car before it's ready for pickup so the delivery window might be right.

also wondering how long it'll take to have this reflect on the Tesla account as my packet was just applied

Dang that's a huuuuge bummer. I know us Cali people get bumped to the very end of the delivery queue. Wish they hadn't gotten our hopes up earlier by setting a delivery date before Christmas. I would definately not mind picking up next week but due to my family emergency I'd have to leave the...

Out of curiosity, anyone set for Buena Park delivery location gotten a VIN yet? Particularly for for a white LR - black interior 18" aero wheels? Been trying to email my SA to get paired up as I'm in a bit of a crunch to receive delivery due to a family emergency where i have to leave the state...

Not exactly too sure but Im 90% sure Tesla fills this out even when financing with a 3rd party as they're the ones authorized for CVAP and they'll have all the info for your financing so they should be able to verify whether or not you are at this 12% or below APR

do you mind sharing the checklist? i wasn't able to find the one that's supposed to be floating around in this thread :)

ordered back on 10/21 still no VIN, and same configuration as you to Buena Park as well lol. have you gotten a delivery date?

Yep, in the same boat here. I'm actually trying to get paired up with a VIN by this coming Saturday due to personal reasons but hopefully they kick it into overdrive at Tesla and get us our VINs soon :)

Thank you! I kept checking the website over the weekend and saw my status change to "approved" yesterday. However, I just received the formal approval email along with the approval packet (2 separate emails about 5-10 minutes apart) today. I'm assuming they were approving people over the weekend...

wow you applied in November and already got approved?! they must really be moving quick, congrats!!

update, just got approved! notable dates: applied: 10/18 found out I was in the final review stage: about 12/07 approved: 12/20 Initials: YM

Congrats!! I applied 10/18, initials YM so I'm hoping I hear back Monday or Tuesday so I can take delivery this week *fingers crossed*

Wow that was an insanely quick turnaround considering you sent in the documents a few hours ago, congrats on the approval! If you don't mind, what are your initials? I applied 10/18 so I'm probably still a ways off from a final response but trying to get a better gage as it seems you're either...

Dont have personal experience but based on what Ive read here and what my SA has told me, seems like you just forward them the packet and they apply the amount to the down payment or MSRP, Tesla should handle finalizing the paperwork to make sure they are able to really get the funds

Took about 15 minutes for me to hear back but I applied during midday like 12pm PST. They might take a little longer now that it's night time but I'd say they'll probably reply by tomorrow

Pretty sure that everyone's portal says "under review," those of us stating that our app is in final review either got the status by talking to a CVA rep or received an email from them stating that (although I've been told the email is rare). I'd give CVA a call and check where your app stands...

Called CVA today for yet another update and the rep I spoke to said that they had moved into reviewing/approving mid-late October applications. She also covered herself by saying it could be a couple more weeks before those of us who applied the mid-late October get a final decision though...

Yeah, definitely have an SA that doesn't answer for days on end so I resort to using that chat feature to get my questions/concerns answered. Best of luck!

just completed my financing today. i asked them to pair me with a bank with the lowest rate (I gave them a list of various banks) and it seems BMO Harris has the lowest rate. I was able to get a 2.14% rate for 72 months with them. You can run loan applications through various banks all within 15...

I would try and get a hold of another Tesla rep. You can go onto the Tesla page as if you were going to place a new order and use the chat feature on there to get a hold of someone. They should be able to assist you in applying the grant or at least get you in contact with someone who should be...

there's a whole thread about financing on here, might want to check it out. they even have a spreadsheet for banks/credit unions: Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

Don't think you would, seems you can go back and negotiate. There's a whole thread about financing here: Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

Called for an update on my application today and supposedly, they have finally started reviewing October applications... hopefully that's true. Hang in there everyone!

I'd keep calling and emailing until they give you a solid yes or no on your application because that's just plain ridiculous. I'd ask to speak to a manager if they can't give you a straight answer because each time I call they say they're at the end of the August applications so if you lead with...

Pretty sure people are confusing the SoCal Edison Clean Fuel Reward Program with the California Clean Fuel Reward. They're both different rebate programs. If you get one, you can't get the other and the SoCal Edison one definitely expires this year on 12/31 while the California Clean Fuel one...

Still under final review here too. I definitely left a lengthy note regarding their work flow on that survey they sent out too, maybe if enough people express the same concern it might be address.

Has anyone else seen a change on the status of their application recently? I log on pretty much every day and it had the generic "your application is under review it will not expire....." but logged on right now and had the following message. Anyone else seeing the same thing?

Yep, got one today, guess they're just looking for feedback regarding the program and application process. I definitely let them know they should make their process the same across the board so all applicants are treated equally and are given accurate information given how much discrepancy there...

Another update in case anyone has been told they are in the final reviewing stages (i.e. you've called and someone told you via phone): I called this week on Monday and was expecting to receive an email confirming I was in the final review stage like the representative told me over the phone -...

Update in case anyone is interested. Called and asked about my application status an hour ago, more specifically, I asked if it was in it's final reviewing stages and they said that all they could tell me at the time was that my application was in it's final reviewing stage - great news...

Where did you find the program handbook? I wasn't able to locate it. Trying to see what my odds are now but I'm definitely under the qualifying income. Still waiting on a decision though, applied Oct 18, hoping to hear back soon.

From my knowledge there's no expiration to the $1,500 clean fuel reward, which Tesla applies directly to the price of the vehicle and should already be reflected on your account. Only the SoCal Edison $1,500 rebate is expiring Dec 31st

I've actually been told by my SA its option 2 ($53,490.46 - $ 5,000). So you pretty much use the $5K as downpayment. Maybe it's flexible?

Applied a day before on October 18th and definitely hoping for an approval before year end but looks like we might just have to wait until January considering they'll probably be off on the holidays.

Wanted to share this thread going on for anyone looking for information on the Clean Vehicle Assistance Program (CVAP) or the other incentives as I had a hard time finding information until I stumbled upon this: Clean Vehicle Assistance Program and Tesla Theres' info on the $5K grant, the $2K...

Adding their response here for reference :)

Would you mind sharing the credit union you used? I'm still about a month away from figuring out who I'll finance with and have been looking into different credit unions and banks

I don't think the password update prompt means you're going to be approved. Probably some sort of algorithm to get people to update every so often. I was prompted to change my password a few days ago and my app is still under review as I applied Oct. 18th. Congrats on the approval though!
