Tesla doesn’t care about customer satisfaction, just getting more customers. So, you’re out of luck.

Price drop

Why do you have to cancel and reorder? I simply went in this morning, 'Edited' my design and saved it with the same configuration and now I have the new price.
Unbelievable...ordered our MY in February, which was after the $1000 price increase. Finally took delivery on July 2nd. My 7-day return period just ended three days ago and the Tesla decides to drop the price $3000 right afterwards. Feels like a $4000 slap in the face. SMH
Great business plan...Shove 90,000 units out the door at full price to your early supporters then screw them over by dropping the price $3000!
Are you saying they are not allowed to increase or decrease the price? or should they publish a price drop a month or two in advance?
This is just a lessons and learnt for me, will never never never buy a brand new Tesla model in the first year. I was planning to book a cybertruck, now I am happy that I didn’t pay even for the $100 reservation fee. Will never be an early adopter for Tesla again, never.
The best way to guarantee satisfaction with this mindset is to only purchase immediately after a price reduction, and this is a valid strategy.
At least throw a bone to those who took delivery 10 days ago??
I totally agree, I just did expect they drop the price $3000 right after their factory reopened and resumed deliveries to the new model early adopters.
Everyone needs to quit crying. Does it suck....yes, but if Tesla raised prices by 3k and you just took delivery, would you be willing to pay 3k more? Tesla could argue the same thing...come on Mr. Customer, you just took delivery...we really need to get another 3k from you. You bought the car at the agreed upon price.
Sure glad Im waiting to buy my Model Y...I literally just test drove one in Cincy this past weekend. Im gonna wait til year end and see what happens...maybe another decrease or other promotions for year end push, if I end up buying it at all. Love the tech, but the fit and finish is really not up to par. My 35k outback has better fit an finish and a better ride IMHO. Maybe just keep outback and wait for cybertruck. I can pay 60k for model y that is slower and 200 less range or pay 69k for tri motor cybertruck..

more like 90k poorly built beta units to early adopters who were unaware that they’d be beta testers on top of paying extra.
My scheduled delivery date was Wednesday and when I called the finance guy at Mt Kisco Tesla here in NY yesterday he took the 3k off my down payment. Literally took a 2 minute phone call.
Does anyone know how to "chat" with Tesla on their site?? It keeps being mentioned here, but I don't see a chat feature. I do see the ability to ask a question and it emails them, which I did, but no response yet.
I got my VIN assigned probably a day before this announcement. I REALLY do not want to cancel after finally receiving a VIN after months of waiting. I don't understand why Tesla hasn't automatically updated all existing orders that have not received cars with the new price. There is no ability for me to edit my order as well. There's no way I'll not get the price drop if I haven't even picked up the car yet, even though I have an assigned VIN, right? Ugh

Seems like some kind of thank you is in order for helping Q2 results by taking delivery of a Y at what is now a $3K premium. At least some free supercharging and/or free premium connectivity? It's only been 4 months since Y deliveries began, less the month of COVID shutdown, which probably means Tesla knew this price drop was coming a while ago. Come on, throw us a bone.
