Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

Has anyone taken home delivery and if so how did you handle service for panel gaps and other defects?

I assume just like they do for Texas deliveries. Remember in Texas, you've already bought the car. You have 100 miles for delivery related issues. I just scheduled mine today, but the Pond Springs SC doesn't have a date until August. :eek:

It was originally scheduled for home service (next week), but was rescheduled because it's not something they could fix at my house.
 
I keep refreshing my account page in fear my EDD will change from

Delivery Appointment​

June 30, 2021, 9:00am - 6:00pm

This is first-world problem hell...
After getting this I received a separate text from the delivery team. They asked me to pick a 2 hour window for home delivery. They arrived within that window. Signed maybe 5-6 forms and they took off.
 
Just took delivery! No glaring panel gaps, dirt, or any issues with paint. Only thing I'm going to have them take a look at is the charging port cover which is slightly not flush with the rest of the panel.

For those just following: I ordered my white on black M3 with 19" wheels on 6/3. My EDD was generally always for end of June.
Congrats! Glad to see some success today.

Congrats!! I assume if you report it close to after delivery they won't charge you?

My charging port cover is like that too, it's ever so slight though. I kinda wonder if they are all like that

yeah thats what I thought. I message the service adviser back through the app and asked if I need to schedule something in the shop and they replied with "minor adjustments can be made at your home" so I guess we shall see lol.
 
Spent years trying to convince anyone that'd listen how awesome the M3 is...a friend recently decided to purchase an M3 LR AWD, made final payment and has a VIN...delivery date today, and today was told his car's been sold to someone else. Now expecting a delivery date sometime in September. Love my Tesla but hot damn please fix your communication issues with the delivery specialists. Buddy is really upset...fuming is more like it...😒

How does this even happen?
 
ARGHHH!!! I think I jinxed myself! Just got a call from the SC. My car never got loaded onto the delivery truck so they are pushing my delivery to "hopefully tomorrow." Are you KIDDING ME??? So frustrating!
Dude I am so sorry to hear that. At least your day is close and I hope it comes tomorrow! A lot of cars have been coming in great shape to so hopefully you will be good on fit and finish too.

Add a squirrel to your profile pick so Andrew will leave you alone. You have not paid tribute to him so he keeps messing with you.
