I got the email after hours to finish my order. Did you do the "add a bank and pay" online at all? And did you get a call from your SA or your delivery center?
If I remember correctly, there was one black which still had the white transport protection tapes on its frunk.
have my vin but No option to complete the order. Emailed SA and was told the car has not arrived yet... ugh lol
Pretty much deliveries for late June is last I heard on our end man. Hope it’s pushed up because my estimate shows different. But doubt it at this point.
Hi, I wouldn’t worry. I live in Northern NH and my SA was out of southern Massachusetts and I’m picking my car up in New Jersey. It’s a bit of an organized mess. Once you get your VIN, the delivery center will handle most of the rest.
It baffles me how people can't wait 1-3 months for a car they ordered online. Have you owned a tesla before? I have and I can vouch for how great they are. If this is your first time owning a tesla... I doubt you will want to switch after you experience owning one. Sure the SA experience needs to improve. But the waiting game isn't as bad as your all making it. 3 months tops. And if you know when they push orders out, you could cut it down to 1 or less.
Does it really? Is it that shocking that people are impatient waiting for a $50k+ purchase? What about people who don't have a car, but need one? I have a truck to last me, so no biggie, though I am still excited to get it as quick as possible, but not every is so lucky. Also dealing with financing. I have a pre-approval that was a hit to my credit that lasts 60 days. I'm hopeful to get it before the end of the Q, but if I don't and I have to renew my credit, that's another ding on my credit.
Is it surprising? Yes and no. No, because I’m also one to be impatiently waiting.
Yes because what research did they do prior to ordering? Knowing how Tesla was different from other manufactures I researched how the process works to set my expectations and plan accordingly. I knew when I ordered in April that June was the likely delivery timeframe and planned accordingly. Any earlier would have been gravy. I did get lucky that I got a decent SA. When I say decent, they were fairly proactive in communication before ordering and right after ordering. Not so much in the later weeks, but every time I reached out they did respond fairly quickly. When asked about the hold, I think they gave me a canned answer. But I also understand they either can’t share the info or are probably not told any information. It sucks for those that get sucky SA’s though.I am though used to ordering cars as I want my vehicles configured exactly the way I want and don’t want my vehicle sitting on the lot for a long time. So I tend to order than buy lot vehicles. I ordered my 2017 Camaro SS in January and got it in March.
I would say the worst thing about the Tesla experience so far is them dictating to you when you pick up the car and give you only 3 days to pick it up or it’s given to someone else. That’s horrible service especially this round of deliveries where the hold due to Tesla vision causing extremely short notices of your car is ready for pickup. Again I knew that before ordering and accepted it, but it is still trash.
But maybe I’m being too harsh, but I’m surprised at the people who didn’t research prior to ordering. Seems like a lot ordered first than came to discover how the process goes. Cause outside of the unexpected hold due to Tesla Vision, it’s unfolding exactly how my research set my expectations and my planning. I’m not saying you have to accept how Tesla operates. Don’t like it? Yeah go with another brand. And Tesla can certainly improve in the customer service area and going with the competition instead of Tesla may get them to improve it. But I accepted how the process is when I ordered it. Again doesn’t stop me from waiting impatiently for my car cause I want my car darn it!
Mine just went to 6/12-6/21, too. That's only a 10 day range, which is the narrowest it's been for me. Also no VIN or TeslaVision.Now I have dates again… went from 3-11 weeks to 6/12-6/21. Still no TeslaVision blurb or VIN. The roller coaster continues…

Today was supposed to be the day but…
Received a text from the SC: “Hello, this is Tesla Delivery in Jacksonville. We were expecting your vehicle to arrive today but our logistics partner just informed us that your vehicle won't arrive until after the holiday now on 6/4. Is there another day after 6/4 that we can reschedule your appointment. Sorry for the inconvenience”
Another few days of anticipation I suppose won’t hurt

I had the 10 day range yesterday. June 1-11 from being 7-10 weeks the day before. This morning I woke up and check and guess what? It’s back to 7-10 weeks. *sigh. Another say if waiting for a VIN I guess.
Mine went from May 31-June 10 to what my SA said would be my cars Bday of June 26th
that would be 3 months since my order was placed. It’s at June 9th-29th now

We have exactly the same configurations. Looks like ours will be built roughly the same time.
