    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Is Guide: Tesla Delivery Checklist - TESBROS BLOG still the recommended resource? Wanting to go over mine a little more thoroughly since it's such an old build date-- 4/23 (I'm anxiously waiting for my Tesla to arrive for our 4:00 appointment)

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    You and I are in the same boat. An alternative explanation which was given to me by the local SC is that these cars have been sitting in storage somewhere for a long-ass time waiting for charge ports. Not sure if I buy it 100% but it's what they said ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Hopefully you're able to get your...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    This is the bummer with Credit Unions. If they have a decent rate, (EDIT: I'm looking at you, BECU) they are not really falling over themselves to get people on the books. I imagine this is why DCU doesn't even bother with the concept of a rate lock? For those following along today 2.49% is the...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    This is perhaps a good time to point out that early on when speaking with 'your SA' many of us have noticed a pattern that indicates that questions are being answered in a generic common queue, probably by HQ or (gasp!) remote workers. Around the time a VIN is issued this seems to switch over to...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I love testing beta *sugar*, this is written from a nightly build of Firefox for example. I'd be 100% about FSD beta, especially with recent developments that bring it out of the completely-broken-outside-of-SF-Bay-Area bucket, but I'm always struck by all the folks who say they bought $TSLA for...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I didn't bother adding the FSD note since 1) none of us have it and 2) latest reports don't seem to indicate that it is being prioritized at the moment.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I had to ask my SA, they are able to see a lot of detail on their end. Sweet, updated the mini table. My 240-series VIN sticks out like a sore thumb, really hoping that there aren't any issues!

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Ugh I feel you. I just switched over to DCU from my own CU since they'll only do 100% LTV compared to DCU's 130% and I'd like to roll in WA Tax+Reg. Finally got stuff squared away yesterday. For others wondering, DCU needs to have a VIN/MVPA to proceed with financing, including rate lock. Given...

    Love all the PWM and MSM in there! Supposedly one of those is mine, had to bump delivery out to 06/17 due to work stuff.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Talked to a different SA at the actual SoDo location who told me as much, it’s a 4/23 build date (mis-typed 4/26 the first time, oops) that’s been waiting due to the charge port issue forever. Must be why I had a late April EDD at one point? Still a lil skeptical. SA looked at the config and...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Just today my EDD had pushed out to the end of June; not a few hours later I had a VIN and delivery date. Given your proximity to Tesla I’d say there is still a fair chance you’ll have your car this quarter! See some of the FAQ:

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Haha, you must be new here. Yes, it’s bad behavior, and yes we are all still here despite it all 🙄 My OD’s 3/13, most of us put it in the signature for easy reference (turn sideways to landscape orientation on mobile) once you meet TMC’s 5-post threshold.

    Non Tesla Wireless Power Bank Options?

    Yo with Tesla’s portable charger perennially out of stock I’m interested in alternatives too!

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Well, scratch that. Just got off the phone with the SoDo SC (Seattle proper) and they informed me that VIN and MVPA are updated and scheduled home delivery for Wednesday 6/15. VIN# 240XXX, Build Date 4/26/2022??? SA "This is not a demo car, it is a custom order. You will have the most...

    Ah, right, your EDD window starts today, so any VIN/Change will be tomorrow probably. End of the quarter is still fine for me!

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    The wait feels long for us who ordered after the invasion of Ukraine, hard to imagine an even longer queue you're looking at. Condolences. That being said, the 11 day difference between your SR order and LR change is probably going to be lost in the noise of delivery logistics. I wouldn't sweat...

    Seems unlikely based on other's experience here, how did you go about changing your order? EDD updated yet?

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Looks like you, myself and @SailDrive of the SEA crew are seeing EDD push up to/crossing the end of the month. Curious about @Guy Maughan / @Pryze / @QueenSundodger ? I think I've followed all the folks with similar ODs.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Woke up to a fresh push, 4th 2-week window 06/16-30. I seem to recall some posts from last quarter that looked like the VIN-to-delivery for Seattle was pretty short, have been halfway expecting end of June delivery. SoCal folks are even closer to Fremont, not sure why it’s looks like the VIN...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    As @JB47394 and @T-J- have been highlighting recently, 90+ days Order-to-VIN has been the average lately if you munge the spreadsheet for orders after the 2nd half of 2022Q1. I was looking at this data when I ordered and should have internalized that expectation a little better. “Your first EDD...

    Ok, it’s the 8th today. Making a mental note to check back here once we have build dates on these VINs!

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Love the optimism! I’m on my 3rd 2-week window so I guess I’d forgotten that a VIN was a likely outcome— was expecting another push in a few days. Given the VINs popping up in SoCal and BC perhaps our time has come? There are several of the Seattle folks hovering in the 90-days-post-OD now… CC...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    If you want to go digging into the (long) history of this thread in late April there was a widespread pushback in EDDs as well. We joked that it must have been 4/20 related.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    This is a huge bummer, looks like many of our Austin friends are all seeing EDDs get knocked out to Q3?
  27. C

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Not sure how obvious this is in @JB47394’s previous plots of orders, but the spreadsheet shows a massive spike in orders beginning on 02/28 and peaking in March. If we thought EDDs were broken before March, it is likely hard to get useful info from more recent ones. I’ve been assuming a 90-120...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Forgot to mention— it appears when the system throws out a huge 2+ Month EDD window likely it is confused/missing information and a more specific/hopefully sooner date will return in a few weeks.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Day 2 of the latest 2-week window, pushed out to 06/10-24. My sweet rate lock expires on 06/13 🤷‍♂️

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    What’s your config/latest EDD? If all your tasks are complete it wouldn’t be unreasonable to expect the date to be getting closer now? Unfortunately @Not That M3 switched to M3P so we no longer have that data point for Austin.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Plenty of time for it all to change again 🙄 probably once we get this close, color doesn’t factor in as much?

    Hmm, we had the same EDD for a moment, mine updated to 06/05-18

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    To speculate wildly: If your EDD was going to update it could take a week or two. Not that any of us have much insight, but assuming Tesla chooses to honor your original OD that EDD range doesn’t seem too far off the mark. Reading through a day or two’s worth of posts can give you an idea where...

    Forgot to check yesterday, but as of today I've gotten my 2nd 2-week window! 06/09-23!

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Not sure what this comparison is worth but I run the ST H735 version on my vintage Benz in 205/70R14. It's quiet and hard wearing with respectable all-around grip. No way to comment on handling since my aspect is so high.

    @DrChaos Ok, the Model 3 is heavy, but not that heavy. Just for quick reference: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/m3p-tires-load-index-on-18-size-vs-20.174522/

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    How was the rate communicated to you? I haven't followed up on my approval email which didn't contain any details. Besides, still a little too far away from a VIN to be bothered at the moment, just curious if they are still hovering around 2.24% ?
  41. C

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Star One Credit Union in the Bay Area, I've seen some banter here about them but they are a closed CU. Nice to deal with, but probably you can find a similar rate locally with a little sleuthing. https://www.starone.org/membership/who-can-join/

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Holy cow this thread moves fast! @Not That M3 / @SkunkApe I assume you're right; thus far I've only filled out the (very short) application form. My mid-March OD means I'm obviously still waiting on that VIN. IJust thought that they might quote a rate for me as part of the approval. I have...

    Check your email. I didn't get any notification outside of the credit pull until this showed up-- planning to give them a buzz to figure out what my actual rate is.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Checked the app on a lark today; EDD pulled back in to a more reasonable ~June timeframe. Odd, since up till now it seems like updates have always come on Sundays for me.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Mine pushed way out this weekend as well to Aug-Sept. I just assume that means the system is choking again and will right itself eventually?

    2022 Model 3 Lift gate opens halfway and now will not open or close

    Sounds to me like they scratched up your trunk during alignment and now they're choosing to replace it.

    2022 Model 3 Lift gate opens halfway and now will not open or close

    Interesting that the mobile service tech tried adjusting the hinges; I've seen some rumblings about 2022 liftgate hinges being delivered loose, which could certainly cause the sub-flush misalignment seen in your photos. Are you able to show some pics of the hinge with the trunk open?

    I've heard that some folks are receiving their cars w/ mud flaps and ppf installed, depending on the market. On that note, curious if anyone has shopped around for rear mud flap options? Only OEM fronts available AFIK

    Man, really jealous of folks who order after today-- now they get to track two separate EDDs! Sorry, I had to make an account just to post this.
