Ordered May 1st, updated Order 6/10, did all paperwork and waited, and waited, and waited. Finally get VIN emailed but not in my Tesla account. Advised my current Tesla Model S payoff amount needs to be updated. Here is where it gets interesting.
Two weeks prior to delivery Sales associate updated it which was reflected in the breakdown of amount due, but now the completed trade in value check box shows a new trade in estimate is underway. Email received of the new estimate, car is the same, the rounded mileage of the car is the same as the original trade in value that was accepted. New trade in offer is $2,600 less.
Get notified i can take delivery a day earlier if available, so I say yes. Get asked to take new photos of the vehicle and update trade in information, do so as requested and email photos as their is no place to attach due to the last time the trade in was updated.
Day of delivery, I get an email with a 3rd trade in offer that is now $3,600 less then the one received 2 weeks ago.
In total the difference from the original offer to the day of delivery offer is $6,200 with the details of the trade in not changing even in Tesla's emails. Completely unacceptable especially for the difference from two weeks ago.
When i get a call from a delivery specialist I advise that this is unacceptable and if this is not corrected then i am unable to take delivery today. The response I get is then we will need to release the VIN.
WHAT? if I dont take early delivery while you try to screw me you will cancel my order????? The delivery associate advised that they will just rematch us to a vin at another time. I then had to explain to her that they dont make what i ordered months ago any longer so that is not possible.
I ask to speak to management and sit on hold for 15 minutes, I dont get anyone from management only that she spoke with Management and they can hold it until Tuesday while i review my trade in options..... No reasons for the drastic change from start to finish or even from 2 weeks ago till now.
This would be our 4th Tesla, just picked up my Wife's new X 2 months ago and like the first 2 we got 3 years ago, experience was easy, fast, no issues, now with the Y it has been a nightmare. Asked for a manager call back since i never was able to speak with one and was told she will let them know, so not expecting one while i figure out what i am going to do.
