2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

[Sbaimo]

Apparently they're more open to delivering in CA. No option for me here in GA. I'd gladly bribe tip a delivery person to have my car delivered haha

You only can find out if you try. I was at my wits end and td everyone I could speak with at the sc and it did show up

I want to say something in support of the way Tesla is communicating about Model S LR deliveries. I understand the pain of not knowing...I’ve been waiting over five months. But if I were running Tesla and knowing that any slightly negative news gets exaggerated, twisted and just turned into click bait by the unfriendly press, I wouldn’t release the slightly negative news.

Suppose the issue with the 19” wheels was as simple as a mistake in ordering...imagine the headline, “Tesla Factory System Broken, Forgets to Order Wheels.” Or if the issue were a late change in color. Then the headline might read, “Tesla Changes the Wheel Design, Is it a Safety Issue?” The article could say it isn’t, but the damage would already have been done.

So as a stockholder, I support Tesla’s policy of not communicating reasons for delivery uncertainty and delays...better no news than bad news. I’ll just wait for the car I want.

Ordered Model S LR white on white w/19” and FSD January 28...order # 1144 estimated delivery, blank...had been March, June and August

I disagree with you. They have a responsibility
To their customers. Take care
Of the customers and the stock will reflect it. And if it doesn’t , Tesla still need to step up and communicate what the issue is. Amazon and apple have good CS and don’t bs customers. Those companies and their stock are doing quite well.

Anyone on Canada have a delivery date earlier than August? Also any videos out there on a review or drag times of the long range?

Do it both ways. Control the narrative. Say outright that the CF is delayed until x/x/xx, and the 19" is delayed until x/x/xx, and the red/white is delayed. Because of our strict safety standards and need to put out the best car for our customers, blah blah : ) If you switch to different options you will get a car by x/x/xx
Don't have to be true reasons. Just give a valid timeline so customers can make choices.

Will keep everyone updated, account just updated to black interior now

Need to change you signature.

 

[Jjperron75]

Correct, but it is the first LR that we have seen it in. Previous LR delivery photos and even Plaids do not have it along the dash. Curious about others that got delivered if we are seeing an incremental design change or a one-off.

Yeah. It’s on the LR. It only on doors and arm rest.

Ok since there’s people in this thread that have received their cars, anyone figured out how to view the sentry mode videos? All of the YouTube videos and websites say to press the sentry icon top right but nothing is there. Is it not working in the refresh? No such icon exists even though it says it’s in sentry mode and I get alerts I can’t view. Sorry I know that’s not what this thread is about. Delete if needed and I’ll post in the main forum.

RN 114263XX MSM LR 19” Cream Ordered 12/05/20 Dec 31, March, May, June Now blank again
Thanks all for the pics of your new deliveries - Your cars are Super Cool!! & you give me hope - Congrats!

In case anyone in Tesla reads this please help:

• If switching to 21” arachnid wheels gets me a VIN - I’ll change my order.
• If taking delivery someplace other than Phoenix gets me a VIN - I’m up for the road trip! Say where
• I’m told by folks at the call center to talk to my SA about my order, but he won’t call me back.
  (BTW The guys at the TESLA store in the mall shrug their shoulders and laugh….really).
• I promise if you tell me the truth about the delay, when to expect a VIN, & how I can accelerate it I won‘t go to the press
• I am a shareholder and want you to thrive and prosper….but I also want the car I ordered 7 months ago.

Love your product, own your stock, and want to write you a six figure check. could you not make me feel like a chump.

You've been waiting so long, if the wheels are interchangeable, experiment a little - change the wheels and see what happens. If they don't give a VIN after a few days and you really want the 19", change it back. I changed my wheels last Sunday and crickets.... but, I also want the white interior. Lots of people seem to be getting their cream interiors.

This was only a no-win scenario for Tesla because they announced the damned thing to early. Like...a full quarter too early.

Do it like most of the big boys (Apple and the like) - you only announce when you're good and damned ready, and then suddenly it's here "next week!". They need to manage expectations better. Orders and hype don't really get them anywhere when the only metric that matters to Tesla's shareholders is deliveries anyway.

Correct. That icon isn’t there yet for whatever reason. Hopefully they fix it in software soon.

Someone in another thread said you could use voice commands - “Open dashcam viewer” when parked.

Hopefully, just hopefully, the running trend of a date range > blank > VIN will hold true for you.

I’m Canada, ordered mid April and it has said august for a while now. MSM/Black/19’s.

Same for me too. Back to blank.

Next stop, Vin

 

[Chrisatx]

Just got an update July 13th-July 20th, after being blank for one week. (It had been July 1st-July 13th for 2 days). Not holding my breath, I've been fooled too many times but hoping it sticks this time.

Ordered mine on 1/1 pre-refresh, black exterior, black interior, 19', no fsd, RN1143. Then changed to 21's and MSM a week ago.

Of course back to blank this morning. This is a brutal joke from Tesla.

There is ZERO excuse for how Tesla's lack of communication is beneficial to the company. They have the absolute worst reputation now for customer service. I've been waiting for 9 months for my car, I've been told I'm a priority and they are looking for my car and they do absolutely nothing except tell me what I want to hear. (Whenever they choose to get back to me.) If I even get the car when they decide to get me one, I will never go through this process again. Not with other car companies who will fill this void coming up on their heels. They are sinking their own ship with this behavior. Honesty is always the best policy.
