Australian Model Y Waiting Room

[Davemcd]

That's a strange way of framing it. My read of that situation is "international shipping corporation Linx has breached it's health and safety obligations and there now needs to be an investigation by the Victorian OHS regulator so that people who work in isolated environments aren't missed in an emergency and injured or killed". Fires on ships (even small ones) can be very dangerous and injure people badly.

The further implication of this is that if anyone is responsible for holding up all our Tesla deliveries coming through the port in Melbourne, it's the Linx company who should run a safer operation (as they are legally required to do).

Not disagreeing with you about Linx.
Although they could have moved the boat somewhere else for repairs in almost 3 months.
Taking 1/3 spots does hold up unloading from the port.

I have the hidden VIN and then it disappeared. Lucky I screenshotted but it seems pretty useless now.
What can I even do with it since I don't know whether or not it's really "mine"?

I must of had a hidden vin as well as I have an empty rego form now.

 

[brend0s]

I tend to believe it’s the port delay which caused Tesla to have done what happened yesterday to provide more accurate EDD once they know for certain when the ships will unload

That should explain the date - but why retract the assigned VINs?

 

[beam]

80 was the last 2 digits of my VIN from yesterday that disappeared - if everyone else VIN ended with that as well, then maybe it is "B"

Mine was 43. looks legit

We have exactly the same order. My last 2 digits were 78

I must of had a hidden vin as well as I have an empty rego form now.

Mine has error loading the Rego form now.

Did anyone manage to find out from Tesla whether the glitch yesterday was:

a) Website issue, still ongoing; whereby the VINs and EDD were correct temporarily BUT now the website won't display the rego/dates
[or]
b) They incorrectly assigned phantom VINS that were never meant to be assigned to us....and we're no closer to delivery than this time last month.

I find "B" hard to believe. Not because I don't want it to be true, but how the VINs were created/assigned in the first place?
Unless they doubled-up and assigned the same VIN to multiple people. Bah!

The only thing I can think of is maybe they were the LR VINs of the same colour/interior/wheels and they were mistaken for RWD VINs.

Did your VIN start with LRWYHCEK or LRWYHCFS?

I just spoke to them. It's B.

They cooked it and assigned people a VIN that they should have never got.
The website today is correct and most of us haven't moved forward at all from 72hrs ago.

The issue was across M3 as well. My M3LR was assigned/dated and then evaporated.

Surely they can move the boat whilst carrying on their investigation?

Spoke to who exactly? I doubt the sales rep would have that level of detail.
I didn't receive a VIN/updated EDD yesterday.

 

[catham8]

That's reasonable, but remember that some people need to complete the transaction before the end of financial year. Others are keeping an old car alive while waiting for the replacement. Some have sold their old car, and then the replacement is delayed... There are a lot of reasons why it can be difficult to "just get on with your life" when the delays are longer than indicated.

Hey I was just wondering why some people need to have the transaction completed by eofy? Is it something to with tax?

 

[Power Hungry]

The 'Manage Order' page is out of action and I can't access it?

The call centre. They said it was an "allocation error" and gave that level of detail.
They didn't say the words "cooked it" - but yes if you also call you'd get the same response presumably.
...or not it's Tesla.

@borgsta - you may have. It was a window of about 3 hours. No email/text - just updated on App/Website.
To know for sure, if you were impacted you'd still see a rego form (although it's broken)

 

[brend0s]

But "Tesla is a software company"

(They're in for some sarcasm today after all these stuff-ups)

 

[Elite Display]

LRWYHCFS - I'm curious, though, what's the difference between the two?

Hey I was just wondering why some people need to have the transaction completed by eofy? Is it something to with tax?

Yes. I want to know if this applies to Novated Leases as well.

 

[alvintiong]

Yes. Me2. Cant access that page now.

If buying through a company you can write off the value of the car to the car limit (around $67k). This expires by the end of June, hence some of us want our cars by then.

Doesn't affect Novated Leasing

 

[Elite Display]

Yes. Me2. Cant access that page now.

Same. Maybe they're removing all the Rego Forms.

 

[SocialDropkick]

Yes. Me2. Cant access that page now.

Ah, thought it was just me. Frustrating as I was halfway through uploading photos for a trade-in.

Yeah unfortunately I checked in that magical window and had no updates and there is still no rego form on my account pages.
