Don't take this as gospel, but from what I've read, the most affected area was the container handling...so really couldn't see there being an issue with vehicles...unless they are manifested by the same shipping companies....

Fingers crossed.Don't take this as gospel, but from what I've read, the most affected area was the container handling...so really couldn't see there being an issue with vehicles...unless they are manifested by the same shipping companies....

Even if it was, they're the one that organised and has the commercial relationship with the transporter.
Exactly what I thought as well. Hopefully it impacts only container movements.Don't take this as gospel, but from what I've read, the most affected area was the container handling...so really couldn't see there being an issue with vehicles...unless they are manifested by the same shipping companies....

I can tell one thing though, I've purchased a lot of cars in past; never has there been a time where I had to wait anxiously for a new car apart for my MY now
Slightly OT but I had a similar interaction with a rubbish haulage company once.
I was driving down the road when a large piece of metal came out of a dumpster loaded on their truck and just missed my car.
I called them to complain, a simple “sorry we will try better” would have placated me as I wasn’t out for vengeance, but their reply shocked me..
“We don’t load the trucks so we are not responsible for things falling off them”
I suggested that the driver of the truck is indeed responsible for driving on the road with an insecure load, pretty sure there are laws about that kind of thing. The call taker was a pain in the butt for no reason so I reported the rego of the truck to the police and offered the dashcam footage.
Long story short, that piece of metal caused an accident later and the report and footage was helpful.
Long story short - while they will try and get of their obligations, if the Tesla was spoiled or damaged by the last mile carrier, you are spot on, this should be remedied!
Yep. But the only way to force the matter is small claims court. There can be a substantial gap between what a company should do and what you can realistically force them to do.
I really like driving EVs and there are good and bad things about the different makes and models. Tesla as a company can go suck it, though.
It's hard to remain hopeful since there's still no plan in place for GC on TMR QLD. The schedule from the NSW port authorities might face another reshuffling. It's best to maintain modest expectations for now.
Glovis Caravel is still off the sunshine coast pending resolution of the biosecurity issue. The Port Kembla port authority schedule has been bumping it back 24 hours each day.

I've always found Tesla very responsive to fixing issues with delivered cars. My own experience and plenty others. My wife works in car industry (another brand) and just cause its a "new car" doesn't mean anything to its condition when your car arrives cause "stuff happens", not unusual to have cars resprayed, repaired before you see it. But yeah Tesla do fix stuff and make right as far as I've seen. So definately report it if you see something shortly after delivery.
These schedules are absolutely meaningless (at least where Glovis Caravel is concerned).
It appears that GC might have departed from the "ship to ship transfer anchorage #1" area and could be heading to a different location. Does this seem like a promising development?
