Another delay anecdote to add to the pile,
I was scheduled for a 9am delivery tomorrow 9/25 at Mt Kisco. I proactively reached out to both the local SC and my Delivery Advisor for confirmation this morning and was told I have not been matched to a VIN so we should reschedule. New date is Saturday afternoon (9/29), but I’m realizing now that any delivery dates they give out without a VIN assigned (and it seems like they have done this a lot) are a wish, not a promise. I’m fully expecting they will miss the new date too.
Seems like they have no idea what cars will arrive when. In this age of Amazon Prime and real-time UPS tracking, I find this disappointing. They have also totally bungled the job of communicating this crazy process to customers. People have lives to live that need to be reshuffled to make room for delivery appointments. Pushing delivery appointments on people when they don’t have a specific car earmarked for them is just a waste of everyone’s time.
