Great September Delivery Push
- Thread starter PremiumPackage
- Start date
Did they mention anything about when/how the vehicle would be sent to TX and where it's coming from?
They told me that only once I paid in full can the vehicle me marked as ready for shipping and, after payment is received, it's to be sent by rail from California to TX. From what I've been reading here, the CA->DFW transit by rail is expected to take some two weeks, and then the vehicle would be transported farther by truck, if necessary.
Your payment/delivery dates imply either a much quicker shipping method or that perhaps the car is somewhere closer to Texas at the moment. Did they give you any such details or did they just give you a date and that was it?

No mention of where the car was located. Delivery date accepted prior to finalizing trade-in.
I just entered my VIN and found it was trucked to Lathrop Hub in California on July 20. Looks like I was assigned one built early Q3. I would expect it to be further shipped to Austin, but don’t see that on United Road at present.
I just received the dreaded call and delivery pushed from September 24th to 29th. I tried tracking he vin through the railroad company and nothing is even showing up. I fully expect it to be pushed again.
A few weeks ago, I received an email from Tesla asking me to chose a date and time for my delivery. I picked 9/26 @ 10:00 and the time was confirmed and showed up in my Tesla account.
Fast forward to today and the Tesla Service Center in Indianapolis has received the check for the car from my credit union and I have a finalized MVPA.
I decided to call Tesla to see if my car is in transit. They told me my car just left California and it will be in Ohio by 9/28, oblivious to the fact my delivery in Indiana says 9/26. No one can give me a straight answer but I am expecting a delayed delivery at this point.
I'm happy I called because I am turning in my leased vehicle prior to picking up my Model 3. I guess that's on hold for a bit.

Original delivery 9/20
Completed MVPA and paid up the loan balance on 9/17
Got the dreaded call to reschedule, reason given "logistical delays" and weather issues with hurricane Florence
New delivery date now is 9/25

On 9/6, delivery was scheduled for Mon 9/24 in Westmont IL. I got a VIN yesterday morning on my account. Last night I got an email cancelling the delivery and asking to reschedule for 10/1. I replied immediately. Of course, my account still shows the 9/24 delivery date.
Reserved 3/31/2016.
Ordered P3D 8/25/2018, used a friend's referral code.
First contacted 9/6/2018 to schedule delivery, said the car would be available 9/22/2018
Stopped at my local service center on 9/12/2018, asking if they had any more info, sales manager found my VIN, but said it looks like the car might be delayed three or four days (no explanation why). She told me cars are transported by train to Chicago, then by truck to Minnesota.
Still waiting for followup call from the scheduling people.
Sales manager implied that they were scrambling to deliver as many cars in Q3 as possible, and she was planning on being at work until 11:59pm on 9/29. (No Sunday auto sales in Minnesota.)

Just received a call from Tesla, my reschedule from 21 to 24 was just rescheduled to 22. Not complaining...

8/28 Ordered long range AWD w/ EAP.
9/6 Contacted to schedule delivery, but no VIN. Scheduled for 9/27.
9/19 (today) - Still no VIN, and no action on my trade-in.
With only a week until 9/27, I'm expecting this is going to be delayed. I can't even get Lightstream to rate beat yet because the credit union I'm working with won't give me a "final approval" until they have a VIN.

When my date was rescheduled they updated my delivery date on my page and my VIN disappeared. Did they pull that car and deliver it to someone else or is it just programming in the system and since I am more than a week away it disappeared and then it will reappear when I am 7 days out?
So I just called the local office, as people seem to have had success doing so. They took my info, and acted surprised when I had a delivery date next week with no VIN, and said they would call back. 20 min later I get an email from "Jackie" in Vegas (I'm not in Vegas) asking to confirm all my details, but still no VIN? Connected? Who knows. I still do not have a warm fuzzy.
