Guys, it looks like a M3P isn't in my near future. I had to officially reject (for the second time) the car my SC tried to repair for me... I had faith in Tesla to fix everything like they said they would, but sadly they have failed me again... This body damage was not there when I first did the inspection and there was more issues that I found as well. At least my Model S estimated date is still June, which gives me some hope I'll get a great car soon, maybe?

They tried to blame the transport truck, but I think it happened when they were replacing the rear bumper diffuser and using a car lift?Oh Man, that sucks! How does that even happen?
I did just that. Chose cash at order date, had SA switch it last week. Taking delivery soon

I just read through your story. This is so wrong on Tesla's part. I hope justice is served for you and you get a brand new car.

QQ for you MA [future] Tesla M3P owners -- what are you doing with your tires in the winter? Are you changing them? Have you been eyeing a good set?
Sorry to hear. I thought I was the only one. I am right there with you. After waiting two months for my M3P was also damaged. At least in my case the car couldn’t even be repaired for delivery.Guys, it looks like a M3P isn't in my near future.

Ditto. I’m looking for recommendations for tires for the performance for winter and or even summer as I have some pot holes lol.
Yeah. I think there is no option but to change them. Tsportline has replica uberturbines that I'm eyeing. Or I might get the track package for the summer and throw some winter tires on the stock uberturbines
Same exact thing for me. Got the same message then VIN immediately after. Came through in account page, no email.

If I was in your situation I would wait for a new vehicle. But I would try and get them to offer a year of free supercharging for the delay to prevent you from canceling the order.
I’d be tempted to take the demo model if they offered the same deal.

My original plan was to buy a 80’s-90’s pickup truck but the used market is completely unhinged from reality right now. Probably just going to buy a beater with AWD. Would be nice keep the 3 in the garage on snow days.
Right now the challenge is finding anyone at Tesla with the authority to do anything to solve the problem. Customer service says the first escalation point is the delivery center manager, but he resigned this week. My SA is trying to push the demo car for full MSRP. My focus is to get my money back and reevaluate buying a Tesla. Thankfully my M4 is in pristine condition and other than expensive service it’s really dependable.

My delivery is scheduled for tomorrow and I got an email yesterday saying I needed to complete my final payment and accept the terms. Open the site on PC and App and no option to approve anything. My payment terms have been under completed tasks for 2 months and now moved over to the "next steps" tab along with insurance which is also complete. Called Tesla Finance yesterday 2 hour wait for call back... They said everything looked good and I didn't need to do anything and I would see an option to accept the terms today on the site. Got another email today prompting me to accept the terms of financing and again I have no actions in my account.
Can anyone else confirm the same issue? I'm assuming these are auto-generated emails and probably just a glitch but it's concerning me that I'm going to drive 4 hours for delivery and they are going to tell me I didn't do something to complete the order. Add that to the stress of recent damage reported by others this has turned out to be more stressful than dealing with a shady in person dealership. I really think I would prefer to take my chances with the dealer games than all of this stress and uncertainty.
I know all dealers are having delivery delays it just sucks they aren't providing clear updates and information. I do have a buddy that ordered the new Bronco a couple months prior to my Tesla order and he still has no VIN and no update on when delivery might be scheduled. His window just says Aug-Oct. Original delivery was May until the chip shortage.
