My DS woes continued past delivery. in December I received a notice from my credit union that they had not received the electronic lienholder notification, which means my DS didn't file my paperwork per the instructions from the CU. I didn't hear back by e-mail so I drove over there the next day and handed her the paperwork and waited while she took care of it.

Fast forward a month. My credit union sends me a letter saying I'm in default for not adding them as a lienholder. Enough is enough! I pull a title record and find the mistake in seconds ( "__ __ Bank" instead of "___ ___ Employee Credit Union"), but Arizona uses an eletronic system and I physically handed her the bank instructions. As best I can conclude, she went into the back, saw the first word matched in the record, and instead of checking the ELT number, she played Candy Crush for 5 minutes before coming out to tell me it was fixed.

The next day I was in touch with the store manager who finally got it fixed. But it was completely unacceptable, and the manager agreed but that doesn't change the fact that it was an awful experience.

I usually try to avoid naming names, but in all seriousness if you are in Arizona and "Kelly McCoy" is assigned to you, insist on someone else. Her Linkedin profile shows that before being a Tesla DS she worked as a hostess in a restaurant. I don't doubt people's ability to learn skills, but she has not done so.
 
Going on 3 weeks and my DS has not returned any emails (simple questions). I find the process so far to be unsatisfying when you factor in the wait. I don't think the process will get any better once the Model 3 production begins (500,000 orders strong now). Anybody have any similar experiences recently?

I have the same issues with my DS. I rarely get responses to my questions and only do when I reach out to the original person I ordered the car with, after I speak with her she has to get a hold of my DS who then will respond in an annoyed tone. I'm hoping that when the car is delivered I get another person to explain the vehicle.
 
I haven't had a whole lot of dealings with my DS, but I'm happy with what I've seen so far. I know the poor dude is busy, but he has managed to answer my questions within a day or so of when I send an email, and his answers sound complete. I look forward to meeting him, even if it sounds like it may be only for a few moments.

Well at least I'm not the only one having a poor experience with her. I can't get any information out of her even when I ask pointed questions. She says she will call me, then doesn't and when I call her she is always short with me almost to the point of being rude. I am less than impressed with the CPO process as it is and she certainly isn't helping. I'm supposed to take delivery this week (order placed 12/20). Now after reading your post, I'm not sure this nightmare will end when I finally do pick up my car.

I guess this would be the place to vent my frustrations with my DS. I ordered my car right after starting my 6 month deployment last year and told them then that I wanted it toward the beginning or middle of Feb. I've been trying to get a hold of my DS for various things from the AP2 hardware and AP1 experience to getting the delivery date nailed down. She hasn't been responsive at all and finally I was able to call in and they let me know It's looking more like the last week of Feb instead. I find this very frustrating considering they've had so much time and I tried to be as specific as I could be. Now I'll be arriving back early next week and she suggested I call in to see where things are... is this just something I should have rolled with or do I have a reason to be frustrated?
