Probably a critical patch was rolled out based on production build and testing it on cars that are already on road before pushing the update to cars due for delivery. Still holding 7/24 2PM as ETD for my car.

- delivery hold Model S
My VIN got assigned on the 8th also and the transport my car allegedly arrives on tomorrow, came from Chicago. They must have all rolled off the line about the same time.Probably a critical patch was rolled out based on production build and testing it on cars that are already on road before pushing the update to cars due for delivery.

Thank you for creating a new discussion thread for this @MrExitStrategy I appreciate it!
I'm very likely in this boat too. I got my VIN on 7/2, service center called on 7/8 to setup a delivery appointment for 7/16, then received a text the next day changing my delivery appointment a week later- this Friday, 7/23 and that date has not changed as of yet. This isn't my first Tesla so I've learned how fickle these dates can be under normal circumstances, let alone with the added complexity of whatever this hold is.

Let's hope it's the software update that was rolled out last night and that we get our cars today or tomorrow!
This hold is really killing me haha. I'm going to stop by the local SC later this afternoon where my car is today and talk to them to get more info and will share.

Chiming in on this thread.... Thanks for creating it... a few thoughts.
My Model S Refresh was ordered JAN 27th.
LR, White, Cream, 21" Rims, FSD.
I had originally secured financing, but my SA had told me last week , that it EXPIRED! and I had to reapply.... (I did and rate is similar)...but wow.. Its been a long year of waiting,
My Original EDD was March!
(1) Im tryin g to determine WHEN my VIN was assigned... (It has been a few weeks)... Can i tell by the Vin itself?
(2) My EDD has always been a rolling block of 4 days going back a week or so... each day goes from #TODAY until 3 days for #TODAY.... (i,.e rolling)
(3) I think it is probably hardware related ... I think others have guessed alternate chip... I think you might be right...
(4) slightly off topic.. (forgive me) does this site have a DISCORD Server/Channel for us Tesla users.... I like Discord because it allows Real time chatting , and if you miss a message...you can always log in and go back through the conversations....
Looking forward to sharing any info I receive...and learning here.,... Cheers folks

Don't think you can tell by the VIN as it's more like when the vehicle was manufactured and not necessary when it was assigned. But you should be able to find your email saying the VIN was available. Mine was subjected "Model S Financed VIN Available" it could be different though
I'm hoping it's a software issue so we can get ours quickly after a patch
but yeah a hardware issue could make more sense...I've never used DISCORD but will need to explore, please let me know if you find a good one for Tesla
i have the perfect Tesla Discord Server let me know and i can get you in.Don't think you can tell by the VIN as it's more like when the vehicle was manufactured and not necessary when it was assigned.

I never received an email announcing my VIN assignment... (Idid with my last TESLA), ... it just showed up in my portal......
Yes.. I am on an existing TESLA Discord channel .... let me know if you want an invite
That's interesting! so no email or text or anything? Perhaps you can ask your SA when it was assigned?
Yes please on the Discord

I did not receive an email when my VIN was assigned. The VIN just showed up on my account. I then called my SA and he told me the actual build date of my car.That's interesting! so no email or text or anything? Perhaps you can ask your SA when it was assigned?
Yes please on the Discord
Mine is the opposite, got the email/text when VIN was assigned, but the SA is not able to tell me the actual build date lol
I started a thread on this a few days ago but everyone ignored it.
My friends car and now mine are on hold. My car arrived at the dealer on the 15th. I was going to take delivery on the 18th. No word from even higher ups at Tesla.

Damn not me! I've legit gotten almost ZERO communication initiated by Tesla to me through this entire process. I've gotten 3 automated messages to review my lease agreement. I only know about my VIN by refreshing the site. No calls, no carrier pigeon, nothing. I call my SC and I get some assbag with an attitude that acts like I am getting a favor by them even answering.Don't think you can tell by the VIN as it's more like when the vehicle was manufactured and not necessary when it was assigned.

I am also the only person out of a group of 4 people all picking up at the same SC this week, without and actual appointment or link to submit payment. Not remotely confidence inspiring!
Definitely didn't see that thread otherwise I would definitely follow that one. I think more people are now aware of the issues as more and more of us getting our cars held. Let's hope it resolves soon whatever it is
Yeah, I get that they sometimes don't get the info they should from corporate, but come on, how hard is it to be nice to their customers? At least return a phone call
Couldn’t agree more. Never thought I’d be an inconvenience to a company I’m buying a $130k car from but that’s certainly how they make me feel. Rarely, if ever, get replies to calls, texts or emails. It’s a shame this hasn’t publicly hurt the business (and stock price) - then they’d care.
I know this is gonna ruffle some fanbois feathers, but Tesla is an awful organization that makes a tremendous product.

Plaid, Blue/Cream, CF, 19" wheels. 3/21 > 8/14
They are like Apple and i have succeeded at avoiding their products completely for that reason. But I cannot resist the Tesla product! And now I am the equivalent of a fanboy camping in front of the store. The Plaid is making me a hypocrite, lol, but i am not leaving my place in line even as they usher others at the back past me and i have to watch them drive away.
