Eagerly awaiting my Model Y

[Swoll78]

Hi all! Happy to be one of the newbies here! I ordered my MY LR last Friday and the EDD is October. It's normal to keep checking every hour or so to see if that's been moved up and then to get disappointed when it hasn't? Right? I thought so! Anyway, thanks for all the great resources here. I've been a stock holder for a little while so looking forward to being a driver soon too! Someday... *Checks account* damn, still October!

To help you keep your sanity, my experience has been that changes to EDD normally occur overnight or very early in the morning. I haven't had an EDD change later during the day. VINs on the other hand can drop anytime. YMMV.

When the VIN arrives, does it only show on the website? Do I get notification from email or text?

Been watching my EDD for a couple months now. It will only drive you crazy. Random shifts of 6 months, as if they have no clue how many cars they might make. I think they are playing with our heads. DW think it's some kind of convoluted publicity play-- keep people talking about the car.

In any event, the date you see prior to getting a VIN is pretty much meaningless.

This is my first Tesla and I have not received a VIN yet so I can only relay what others have said and in some cases there was a notification and in other cases, the VIN just showed up on the website. Nothing is consistent unfortunately.

EDD is October? Are you talking 2022? That is a long time, but well worth the wait. Hang in there. Also, I didn't get a VIN until about 2 weeks prior to delivery.

I know, it's nuts! I knew it wouldn't be quick, didn't expect it to be 11 months! Thanks for the encouragement, I can do this! *checks account* aww come on!!!

The VIN will show on the app and the website. A fast follow is the text prompting you to schedule delivery. It will say...

Tesla Update - Congratulations, it's your turn to schedule your Model Y for delivery.

Select your appointment now at tesla.com/schedule/RNXXXXXXXX for your touchless delivery. We may reach out to schedule a new appointment if your Model Y arrives earlier or later than we currently expect.

Thank you for this.

Last week my EDD went from Mar'22 to Dec 5-14 ('21). I was checking the app - probably the 15th time that day - expecting no change in EDD. The app said something like (very roughly.....I was so excited I didn't pay much attention LOL) "Your action is required in your account. Please check your account not using the app." or something like that.

When I logged in it talked about Vision Only vehicles and how some government agency was still reviewing and approving the technology - or something like that - and asked if I was still interested in getting the car. When I clicked "Yes" I got the new EDD and the VIN.

Well that's pretty friggin awesome! So the key is to check the app 15+ times a day?!? I was only doing 5-10 times. I'll up my game! Congrats on your earlier EDD!

Hi All,
I am one of the unlucky people who got the dreaded 2 hour before scheduled delivery call from their SA. Apparently, because I have zero photos, the list gate of my car got damaged during unloading and the whole lift gate needs to be replaced. They have pushed back my delivery date two weeks, but at this point I don't know if taking delivery of a vehicle that had its lift gate replaced is a good idea? I'm torn here with lack of information from Tesla and the fact some people that had similar issues had a new car assigned to them. I've had the same VIN since 11/30 when it was assigned to me.

Update: my EDD is now May28 - June 25!!!
