Here at the Fremont Delivery Center. So excited. Said the wait was maybe 30 min and would take about that long. We drove up via McCarthy Blvd to Fremont Blvd and saw an amazing amount of Tesla Model 3s in a roped off office parking lot. Then even more when we arrived at the DC. Busy here. Won't be long. Can't wait to see all of these driving around. Husband said last night he saw transport trailer sending some off down 101 S.

You live in an extremely affluent area. You only saw two? Tesla put a show room not 20 miles from your home. How many S and X models are in the area? Of course not everyone in that area can afford an S or X but a 3...likely most if not all.

I see at least 3-5 Model S’s on my commute alone. Model 3’s are still trickling in though. That being said, I recognize this area is saturated with Tesla’s but that just makes the wait even harder.
 
So let me throw this out there and see if it tracks with everyone's experiences (a guess based on what I have been reading in here and on other forums/social media).

I am seeing two cases, one where delivery is assigned at seven days out but there is no VIN or MPVA. The other case is where at seven days out the VIN and MPVA show up. In cases where the information shows up there is no delay in delivery date. In the cases where no VIN or MPVA shows at seven days the delivery is delayed. Has this been pretty true for everyone?
I got my VIN and MVPA on 9/10 and delivery was scheduled 9/22 in NJ. Delivery now pushed to 10/4. I wouldn’t try to find any pattern to this chaos :)

the delivery center rep told me on Friday that the car is already in Newark, NJ but would still keep the delivery date 10/4 for now.

What disturbed me, the guy yesterday who's account was languishing and after human intervention it was discovered he hadn't provided his driver license number. There have been two instances in the last 4-6 weeks where if I hadn't serendipitously looked not only at my account page but drilled into each > section I'd never have known the system was waiting on me for input. I suspect a lot of the angst is due to missing information in one's account.
1) I was never notified Tesla was trying to schedule my delivery
2) My trade-in transitioned from needs pictures to accept offer.
If I had never opened up the section I never would have known. And how many people that go into their account page open up all the subsections? So this places the Delivery Advisor on the critical path to every transition in the state of one's order. If they are overwhelmed by workload or incompetent we, the customer, suffer the consequences. This is an unforced error and inexcusable. So, have someone go through your order status line by line to make sure you didn't forget a period or comma or your insurance company hasn't verified your coverage. It's clear, any of those and more will stop your order in its tracks.
 
Who left on these forums still doesn’t even have a delivery date?

As in you made a reservation and subsequent deposit but have heard nothing since... Zip. Zero. Zilch.

We need to stick together.

Oh, in my case it's worse (matter of perspective). I HAD a delivery date, I had a car enroute to the east coast. They were sending it to the wrong place, another software failure of imagination. They gave that car to someone else rather than put it on a flatbed for a 2 1/2 hr trip to NY, just over the line. So now I got nut n honey. As this is a Tesla issue you'd think I'd have gotten the next MCR off the line.. Apparently not. So count me in bro!

I’ve expanded every section. It’s all there and accurate. I’ve also called twice now, I’m not one to pester and would prefer to be patient at this point.

At least until October...
 
Been hearing of a lot of delivery delays but all of them seems to be in other states. Has anyone that is taking delivery at the Fremont factory been delayed? Just want to figure out what the cause of the delays are, are they all transport related? Seems that most people show up and were told the car isn't there.

I'm picking up from Fremont next Thursday.

Yeah, me too. But in my case the state the system thinks I am in is waiting on a deliver that will never occur. Allegedly my DA asked logistics to find me a car. That should take a matter of minutes. If they placed me in the back of the queue for a MCR, that's insane. He also said something interesting as my next steps had said Tesla was drawing up my contract. Is there a darkened room where lawyers with green eye shades sit reviewing Business Law Contracts and hand writing them per customer? No, I think not. One document with appendix of state variations. But last conversation he let slip he would approve them producing a contract for me. So, again, the IDA is a human intervention into an order workflow transition where none should have been required.

It says there are no products linked to your account
OK this is a little weird. I just got into mine and it went to the video guides. I closed that to go to the other page and black background with what looked like a gray cumulo-nimbus cloud at the top. I hit the back button and it said no products linked as well. I resupplied login and I am back to videos page.Rinse repeat. My guess it's trying to show you your car but there is none.

I have a delivery date but no VIN and my edit page works. I called the service center today and they said they don't see any way I'm getting a car next Saturday given their schedule and the state of my order.

OK, jury is back. Whoever designed their order entry system with links to manufacturing, didn't know what they were doing. WAY too much human intervention required.
When is your delivery date relative to today, it officially is next Sat, 6 days away?
Do you have an IDA assigned to you yet?
I suspect if you were assigned a delivery date there is an IDA assigned. Tomorrow, call them.

Took delivery of the car yesterday. At delivery center everything went smooth. I didn't get an extra key that I want to buy. They said card stock ran out.
It is a very cool car. I am getting used to regenerative braking. Like many mentioned in earlier posts I am bit annoyed by the blinkers. It doesn't automatically reset after turns. Seat belts have sharp edges. EAP is functioning.

We had to drive 120 miles to Rocklin CA to pick up the car. ISA never contacted, replied to e-mails or calls. We never given DA's name. At 9:30PM previous night to delivery (was planing to leave Reno NV at 7:00AM next day morning for pickup) we received an e-mail from Sr. Delivery Experience Specialist with DVM documents attached and we are suppose to take a color copy of DMV power of attorney documents signatures witnessed by a notary. We were in panic and finally managed to find a UPS store nearby Rocklin after we reached there.

I Looked online it said you have to have your vehicle registered to you before it will show up in your Tesla app. I did not know that
