This is a tough one as I too have enjoyed FUSC since 2018. If the transfer offer is truly a one-time event, I see value in taking it over the discount…and keep the car for as long as I can. If it is not as the offer may come back in future quarters, I would take the discount…and transfer FUSC at a later time…assuming you still have the original car.I need your help making a decision.
To sum it up, I "picked up" my new car on Jan 13th and noticed some small issues, including a paint problem on the inside of the door. They gave me two options: either reschedule for them to fix everything or take the car now and schedule a service later. Both options involve going to the body shop for the paint issue. I chose to have them fix the car first and then pick it up because I believe they'll take better care of it before selling.
Today, the car is back to the service center and it's ready for me to pick up this Sat, they offered a $4859 price adjustment on the total down payment. The reason for this discount is that the car had damage and went through a third party for repairs. I'm happy about the discount, but I realized they removed my Free Unlimited Supercharging Transfer (FUSC). When I asked, they said FUSC can't overlap with the price adjustment, which I confirmed in the FAQs.
I tried talking to them to get both benefits (lol), but they insisted I could only choose one. Do you think this is legitimate?
My question is, if I can only choose one, which one should I go with? I plan to own the car for 6 years or within 65k miles, and I have 3 supercharging stations nearby. I usually use supercharging once a week and never paid for it before due to FUSC on my old car. Can you provide some advice and share your thoughts? Thank you in advance.
One of those red Xs could be mine! Delivery is in 12-17 days.
+1 Picking up mine at Fremont on 2/4. Just hope there are no issuesOne of those red Xs could be mine! Delivery is in 12-17 days.
Guys, thank you for everyone’s comments. I’d like to give you an update. I am supposed to pick up the car tomorrow afternoon. The delivery advisor just called me and said they found another damage on the tailgate. Again!! I am 100% sure there wasn’t any damage on the tailgate. Then I asked if it's a new damage you guys found or if the body shop made it during the repair. He says he can’t confirm that.I need your help making a decision.

I became a little mad and requested to reject the VIN and still let me do the FUSC transfer. He said he will request approval from headquarters and get back to me in a few days. I am very disappointed and frustrated at this point. I hope he can get the approval and just let me not deal with this car anymore.
This is unacceptable and they need to do what’s right by you. With all the documentation of the ordeal and the various ways it fell short, they should be able to get HQ approval.Guys, thank you for everyone’s comments. I’d like to give you an update.

As a PSA, what’s the spec of this VIN, so those of us still waiting for a VIN match can also be aware?
Well… had a 2024 VIN.Is that EDD or do you have a VIN?
Makes sense. Should only follow through if all feel right.Well… had a 2024 VIN.
I did some soul searching and actually just cancelled my order. Too many things just don’t feel right personally and financially at this time.
Is this the screen folks got for EPA change earlier this month? My order was on hold then and I'm getting this now after removing hold.
Tesla advisor insists I must accept the higher price (paint option) or else order will be cancelled on Feb 8.

Yes, Tesla honored the original price during EPA change a few weeks ago for orders not on hold. But they aren't doing the same now per my advisor. To me, it's like: "Sorry you waited 3 months, but we've increased the price; so, pay up or forfeit it all."So if you'd placed the order before the price went up last week and the order was NOT on hold, would they still be trying to change the price on you?
What number did you contact or SC did you go to? I’m in this bind right now.Yes. They said they’ll honor the old price & update it internally and don’t reconfigure online. You should go to the SC or keep calling to confirm with a rep.
