Was there any sort of alert or email, etc., or does one just sort of maniacally check the Tesla app/website?
Got My 2021 VIN!
- Thread starter Crisss1205
- Start date
Some people got an email telling them about the VIN. I never got any notification. It just randomly pops up in my tesla account.
Maniacally is a good word, I was checking at least a dozen times a day. No notification for me.
I agree, definitely recommend calling. I called yesterday 3 hours before my scheduled pickup appointment. That is when I was informed the vehicle was damaged. Pictures were sent and could tell vehicle definitely not prepped, could tell not even washed. I rejected the vehicle and I am now waiting for a new VIN match. Tesla handled well and great transparency. These things happen.
Some people are now reporting problems with the new laminted windows hitting the trim? What's going on at Tesla?
There are multiple people who got laminated windows on 627xx VINs, the VIN does not really matter as much as the build date does.
It does not, they are not really sequential when it comes to build date. They build them in batches example a VIN 62900 could be built before a 62100 vin.

*Adds to checklist*
Got a new VIN already, 1 day! 675xxx hopefully it ships soon, previous car was 627xx. I am asking for the build date to understand how long it may take to get here.
I also got vin 67xxx this morning, so also wondering if acoustic glass has made it to these vin's.
Same. I'm picking up mine in two weeks. So far, I haven't heard anyone with vin 67 range mention about the laminated windows.
I am picking up on Friday 11/6.
VIN is 66xxx
Has anyone with 66xxx received a car with laminated front windows?
I have read someone with 66 got their laminated windows.
Nope (636xx) born on 10/16 which must have been the final production day with normal glass. I've seen people on reddit with born on dates of 10/17 with the laminated glass.
Rear bumper cover needed replacement which they were able to do today, there were also some minor paint issues that they corrected while we hung out at a local park. Had some adhesive on the headliner as well.
Did you take a checklist? If yes can you share it?
Is there any place in the Tesla sales office where you can hang out if required or do you have to leave?
I was thinking about take Uber to the sales office and I will have to find a coffee shop nearby to hang out of delivery takes long.
At least your wait is over and you have your car. I am assuming now your will start buying accessories.

The Eden Prairie SC has a lounge with coffee, candy, water, and free wifi. There really isn't anywhere to go within walking distance, however.
Thanks for those you told me to call SC. I was supposed to pick up the car on 11/6.
I just heard from them that car is in SC and it was inspected. One of the wheel well got damaged in shipping.
They have ordered the replacement part and it takes a week to get the part so I was asked to tentatively schedule the shipping delivery a week out.
Seems to me that quite a few cars get damaged in shipping. Perhaps it happens in other cars as well but it is not so transparent because dealers sell their local inventory.
Fortunately for me I am not driving much and we have 2 other cars. I did sell my primary car yesterday.
I was thinking of telling them that they should let me inspect the car so I can get other things I find fixed as well.
It sucks to wait 1-2 more week. On the bright side they found a damaged part and are trying to fix it on their own.
