Car at delivery centre but Tesla waiting for a part?

[z0lt3c]

I have been waiting for the ECU charge port on a MY7 order since 5/5.

Today I confirmed delivery with Tesla Princeton for 5/31.

FWIW my VIN is F428xxx

Tysons facility in VA - same situation, Model Y. Been waiting since this first week of May. Car was confirmed delivered to the facility, still waiting. Was told today by the call center that they are awaiting a component replacement. While I can understand the wait, it's aggravating since I've been paying for the insurance on the car and I put 50% down. VIN 7SAYGDEE

Why are you paying insurance if you don't have the car? That's not Tesla's fault, that's yours. And as far as putting a down payment, you don't owe them any money until you get the car so, that's on you as well.

Is this a part Tesla could manufacture themselves?

What worries me is there a potential for battery damage, the manual says if the car is left uncharged damage can occur and it is the responsibility of the owner. Mmmmm guarantee issues?

If the battery is not drained below 10%, it shouldn't affect the Battery. May be check with your Service Center and see how they make sure its not drained out.

My Tesla sales associate just reached out and said that the Orlando location is expecting to receive the charging port ECU parts this weekend. Still do hard set delivery date though. I guess they somehow now have tracking and eyesight on the parts now? Either way, looks like parts are arriving in across the country to the service centers. Hang in there everyone who has their car in a holding lot for the past month!

Still waiting for final delivery date. The SA said they are working ASAP to get these out to us, since the parts are coming in. So hopefully this week! Fingers crossed

The delivery center contacted me about what date was best to do the delivery acceptance. That meant I had to finish the "tasks" in the app - downpayment and insurance. Looking back on this I should have waited until it became an issue with them.

Yeah their steps are misleading where it says "complete these steps to avoid delay in delivery". They actually dont require any initial payment at all in order to get a final delivery date, its a shame that they are fooling people into paying money towards a car that they havent even seen or received yet.

Feel lucky I did not pay as already had once delivery date the SA gave me missed.

Need to be cautious !!
Few facing a never ending Charge Port issue even after delivery...
If possible, Test all kind of charging during delivery..

That is really insane and careless on Tesla's part, if a faulty vehicle is passing pre-delivery inspection and that too after such a long wait for the charge port ECUs

I just accepted my MYLR5 delivery yesterday, VIN419. The car's paint is close to flawless being that it sat in a holding lot for almost a month in the sun and elements. I did catch that the plastic cover with the vents that is under the frunk was missing two push clips to secure it down in the corners. I did find that the rear seat folding switches were recessed and not seated into the panel (this is most likely due to the SC needing to remove this panel to install the ECU). There was a plastic tape over the charging port and they had to clean up the residue that the sticker left on the paint, which was no problem. They were able to address all of these on the spot before I drove it off the lot. I did confirm with them that we do have a 100mi/or3-day window warranty to address anything we notice and they will come out to resolve it at no charge, such as scratches, panels fitments, etc.
Overall the car is absolutely incredible and the one month dark suspense was worth it and is as if it never happened. This charging port ECU shortage is slowly coming to an end for us all! Congrats to everyone and thank you for helping me through this struggle.

Took delivery of my 4/22 built MY7LR today. Was in ECU part jail for 25 days. Just wanted to note that I do NOT have matrix headlights...

Congrats on delivery! This is correct, only the performance has the matrix headlights unfortunately

My MYLR was stuck since April 25th in Loveland, CO due to this charge port ECU missing problem. Finally got the car yesterday - 05/23.
I visited the delivery center couple of weeks back. The local manager mentioned that they were expecting a few parts to arrive next week and he added my order to some priority list to get the missing part allocated.

Yay, HOPE!!!!
