Exactly how I feel. I woke up at midnight and placed my order on the 10th a little after midnight. I thought February would be the latest and really thought we would get them on January if ordered on the same day. Feels like a startup funding event.

Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room
- Thread starter IChillinz
- Start date
So first time posting - ordered a new standard range Model 3 on Jan 11th. Received my VIN on Feb 12th, then scheduled delivery for this upcoming Monday, Feb 26th.
However, plot twist…. Today my advisor told me that my VIN got unassigned and “rerouted”. Seemed like there was nothing that could be done, but the app still shows my delivery scheduled for Monday (even though I don’t have a VIN assigned). I already had it tied to my insurance and plans to sell my current car with a great offer.
I have no clue what to do now and no clue if I’ll get my VIN back or a different VIN and still receive a car on Monday. Has anyone experienced this before??

This is extremely frustrating! Especially because I thought I was just about to cross the finish line and get my car.
This is my second Tesla, I am currently leasing a 2021 LR Model 3. My lease is up next month March, and I have a LR - Stealth Grey - White Interior - Nova Wheels on order. I ordered on 1/10/24 and the app. currently has my delivery date window at 2/26 - 3/28. There were sooner delivery dates on my Tesla app. which came and went. I even prepared my current car for the lease return (removed window tint) and did the credit check for the new lease. What I failed to remember about this process is that Tesla seems to do most of their deliveries at the end of a quarter. I have had friends and acquaintances experience the same thing. I ordered my 2021 Model 3 in Jan. 2021 and took delivery late March. 2021. Looks like it is going to be the same for this car. I love my current car, and the new one seems to have all the faults corrected and then some. It is worth the wait, but in my opinion the communication and process needs to be improved. If you are a first time Tesla owner, you will be happy with your purchase. Mid March cannot get here fast enough, so we can all take delivery of our cars. =)

I have with a 2022 Model S. They’d never admit it but nearly certain “my” car was damaged on transport or prepping for it. They had to scramble and get a new one. Delayed 2 weeks.
Worst part is they wouldn’t take away someone else’s slot so I went… not to the back of the line but a ways back. Sucked. God, I forgot about that BS until now. Thanks!
What configuration you ordered and location? Also type of payment?
Sorry that happened.
Yikes... I really hope that it's not more than a two week delay for me. My blind optimism thinks I'll wake up tomorrow with a VIN reassigned and all is well, but based on what I've heard so far, that's probably unlikely lolI have with a 2022 Model S.

Also can be the car did not passed the quality checks before transported. Maybe you dodged the bullet of a defective car.I have with a 2022 Model S.

It was a stealth grey standard range with black interior and 18in wheels. Located in Pennsylvania.

Update 4 : Mar 10 - Mar 31
I guess its an improvement...3 weeks instead of 4
I ordered a LR pearl white with black interior on Jan 12 and my dates have said March 1 - 31 the entire time. Haven't had a single update.

Well I just got an update to March 3-17 so you’ve got a chance to be the all-powerful oracle.
Interesting that this update was the first one that didn’t come accompanied by a text, email and app message. Just checked the app randomly and saw it.

None of my updates have come via text/email. The only text/emails i get are in response to my tesla chat conversations.
