I don’t understand how you can have that tight of a window that starts on Monday and not have a VIN. Have you called Tesla to ask if a VIN has been assigned? Seems unlikely that you will get your car in that window if you still haven’t been assigned a VIN. I’m in Southern CA as well, and I received my VIN one week before delivery.
Assuming your car is clean, have you tried rebooting?
Clean? I think he is referring to his autopilot radar not the ultrasonic parking sensors.
I was curious about that as well. I haven't contacted my SA yet because I was convinced it was a phantom EDD... Wanted to see if it stuck around a bit before I exerted any effort... I remember one person here had a couple of iterations of tight ranges that, everyday, were pushed out by a day... after two/three of these changes, they did get a VIN, I think... But ultimately, I agree with you and am not counting on getting it next week...
Yup I've been having that for the past 10 days now. Torture is an accurate term for it.
I was told that plaid plus orders could make a change without having a price change. Not sure if there was a time limit on when though.
Mine is the same. So Cal with window that went from July 11-19 to July 12-19 between yesterday and today. No VIN. Perhaps they are planning a shipment to So Cal next week and just haven't matched the VINs yet. Seems like quite a few So Cal orders have recently received this timeframe. I suspect this will unfold quickly (he says hopefully).
Tesla told me the same thing about order modification. My MS LR had the FSD package and I called my SA to remove it. She told me she could remove it, but I would need to pay current pricing on the order book. Fortunately, the LR pricing hadn’t changed, so I was able to remove it without penalty. Doing the same thing for a Plaid would have resulted in a $10,000 up-charge to the new base price. With the new LR pricing, someone making a change now would be stuck with a $5,000 up charge to the base price.
My only assumption is proximity to Fremont. They could crank a car out and have it trailered down to LA the next day.
I had the same thing for a week. Every day it would increment out 1 more day.
If the front windshield camera area is dirty, fogged or blinded by sun there also will be reduced autopilot functions - at least on my car in colder times during the morning drive time it took 10 minutes for the condensation/fog to go away near the camera.
Ok good to know. My car with MSM is finally being delivered tomorrow. I'm hoping there are no major issues like this. I can't take much more!
That would be a vision problem not a radar problem.
So here's what I just learned from an SA at my local Tesla store about this narrow timeframe. She seemed more knowledgeable than most and said the estimate was wrong. Take that for what it's worth.
On Saturday, Tesla is launching v9 Beta of its FSD software and HumanInput is getting a VIN. Only one of these is a true statement
(Still “July” btw)
