EDD was 12/17-12/23. Last night got the schedule text and the earliest it would allow me to select is 12/23 so I did that.

Could be the FSD $$ (your sig doesn't indicate), and/or the fact that I had been listed as a cash buyer (because I forgot to change it when I decided to take out a 3rd party loan), or maybe it's because I'm local, or, uh... I visited the Fremont showroom for MS and M3 test drives just before the Pandemic started, so I've been on their books longer? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Hope you get updated soon.

I have a lot to catch up on, but there seems to be a lot of hassle clearly identifying the major revisions of the MS. Like I noticed some other sites (still) use the Model S Refresh or Facelift to refer to the 2016-2017 exterior changes. Nothing wrong with that, but...
From the Audi and Porsche world (and maybe VW?) I'm used to seeing things like a 1985.5 or 2005.5 indicator for a model that had major changes mid-year. I know Tesla is constantly making small changes, but it seems like 2021.0 and 2021.5 would at least clarify the 2017-2021 vs. 2021 Refresh.
Nothing wrong with "2021+" if it gets enough momentum.

This mat set from Tesmanian was the one I had mentioned in my post and is interested. Shipping is free unlike WT and little cheaper too.

Thank you for the insight. I just looked up the Tesla extended warranty and it seems only model S built before February of 2021 are eligible, so it may be a moot point.
Private message me. I am getting mine back from the detailer this week. Let's see if we can arrange something.
Other members did it for me, I want to pay it back.
I did not know that! With the rapid pace of change in the EV market, it seems really unlikely I'll keep my new MSLR long enough to need an extended warranty, so no biggie to me. I don't think Tesla really liked selling the warranties anyway, so it doesn't surprise me they have now stopped. There are definitely other warranty companies that still offer them, though.
Received the 14th EDD this morning. At least it narrowed a bit from 12/7-17 to 12/10-19. Really hope this is the final EDD range…
My opinion? It's not worth the cost, especially if you factor in the cost, but take that same amount of cash and place it into a conservative investment (I series bonds are over 7% right now) over that period of time, to use for potential repair costs. Also, the suspension system is generally speaking, not that uncommon to other cars. If a ball joint, CV boot, or even air shock or compressor needs replacement, costs arent necessarily as high as some fear. If out of warranty and if the SC has a high repair price, many independent shops can repair fairly easily.

You said that Tesla will refund warranty cost if you cancel anytime during first 4 years. I was under the impression that you could also cancel anytime once the Extended Warranty takes effect (Year 5). Is that not accurate?
While I wait for my new MSLR my current S is rapidly approaching its 4 year anniversary. I have to decide id I want to buy the Extended Warranty. I'll only do if I can get a refund
It seems like you can get a refund anytime by cancelling. But "based on your claim history" Extended Service Agreement
As you noted, this is only for pre-2021.5 (refreshed Model S) vehicles.

i was looking for stuff on thingiverse and quickly tagged some S refresh stuff (cubby holders, etc.) until i realized it was for the prior refresh. the 2022 designation should now make it very clear if it is for a 2021.5 and up model...

So I'm now 2 days out from my EDD, still sitting on a 3 week window with no VIN (and nothing in the source code).
What's typical for folks in this position? Do I need to see a date shrink to 10 days, and/or a VIN in the source code, before I officially get a VIN? Or could it just pop up?
I'm unlikely to get a reject / inventory car, as there are very few Model S being sold in my area, so the likelihood of someone rejecting my exact config during the timeframe is low. I therefore expect the "typical" delivery experience, where my car will roll out of Freemont and be loaded on truck / train to my location.

Historically - it was a shrunken window from what you are at then a VIN. More evidence to this, but not every case. There were VINs when people were at three week ranges. There were VINs after people shot to February (or later) and then back to this quarter with a range.
What I am trying to say is sadly, there is not a whole lot of consistency there.
I've entered the EDD range for the last 4 periods (14 day, 12 day, 12 day and 10 day ranges). The EDD would consistently get pushed out on the 2nd day during each EDD period without prior notice. I am now on my 14th EDD and the tightest range of 9 days (12/10-19). No communication, nothing in source code and no VIN.
It should be noted that for my '22 M3P order, once the EDD dropped to 9 days, I received a VIN the next day with further tightening of EDD window.
YMMV. Good luck!
RN1150 Ordered May 25 pickup in burbank. W/B/19 NFSD
I got a tightened window yesterday of 12/9/21-12/21/21 still no VIN
it was 12/21/21/-12/30/21 before.
funny enough that when my window tightened my 2018 M3P popped up with a message saying my 12V battery needs to be replaced and the car might not be able to start. please tide me over these two weeks
