Unless that's on the top of the clear and just something that needs to be cleaned off, it's probably fisheyed from the surface being contaminated before it was painted. The entire panel will have to be repainted and if they follow standard body shop practices, all adjacent panels will have to be blended. I will basically be rejecting any vehicle that has paint defects unless it's a bumper.

When I scheduled the delivery, I got $4,000 additional discount that disappeared over the years of the wait. It means that FSD cost me just $6,000. Now the price is $30,000 lower plus tax ($33,000+ total).
Interesting! So you have a car that was finished today, and they're talking about possibly getting it ready to deliver by Friday (2 days of QA/QC time) to either Sunnyvale or Fremont. I have a car that was finished sometime in the first week of March, and is still sitting in Fremont not through with inspections 3 weeks later, for delivery in Fremont. Isn't that special?
(Fremont is not my closest delivery option...that'd probably be Dublin. But I had the same thoughts about transportation and damage in transit.)
I talked to someone who was going to reach out to the Fremont delivery team to get me an update "hopefully by end of the day today". We'll see how this goes. My SA was really helpful earlier in the ordering process, but hasn't replied to any of my emails recently.
Good luck...hope you get a flawless car on a schedule that works for you!

Tesla Motors Club
Formed in 2006, Tesla Motors Club (TMC) was the first independent online Tesla community. Today it remains the largest and most dynamic community of Tesla enthusiasts. Discuss Tesla's Model S, Model 3, Model X, Model Y, Cybertruck, Roadster and electric cars in general. -- Welcome to the Tesla...apps.apple.com
I wonder if “making a note on my account” does anything to accelerate the delivery. Probably not, but worth a try
I should text and tell them I want mine ASAP too (with a Jan 2023 EDD)View attachment 784977

I have read through a lot of pages of this thread, and it seems every third post is complaining about Tesla, or their lies, or, their SC’s…
I mean, does everyone still want their Tesla, even with all the complaints? We’re talking a 100k+ car here, and there seems to be a lot of dissatisfaction for Tesla. I am beginning to question it myself, I have a 2020 that I just had in for service, to fix the FWD from stopping almost shutting, every other time. They had the car the whole day, and gave it back and said they couldn’t replicate the problem. What? I replicated it for the service guy right there. It literally happens every other time you close the door. I left, and the second time I go to close it, of course it stopped again, like clockwork.
I have a Refresh on order, and man, I just don’t know… anyone offer up any good advice? Or their thoughts on all of this, lots of complaints, but everyone still wants their Tesla….

People normally go out of their way to express their dissatisfaction. I'm sure the number of people who are content with Tesla and the Model X outnumber the ones who are dissatisfied. Also, reading some of these posts makes me feel like the majority of these people have never ordered a car to their specification. These challenges exist with other manufacturers to an even worse degree.
Hopefully moving from the factory to an SC in the Bay Area doesn't involve driving it. I'd flip knowing my Tesla was driven naked through the streets. As it is I'm angsting between Tracwrap and 3 inch ScotchBlue for temporary frontal protection until my wrap guy can get to it in mid May which is how longer he's scheduled out.
So basically like every other car brand that ever existed.
I don't think Tesla is going to get better any time soon. They are going through scaling growing pains and have lost customer focus.
Pretty much, I’m pretty laid back, and didn’t throw that big of a stink about it, and Have owned quite a few different cars. Toyotas, Hondas, lexus’s, bmw’s, 2 Teslas so far, a Model S, and this 2020 now, with the refresh on order. But man, I just drove 2 hours to the closest SC to me, and they had the car the whole day. I did get to use up about $150 in Uber credits, getting chauffeured around Vegas though, haha.
i understand what your saying, but I don’t think you can say like every other car brand that existed. When my BMW had an issue, under warranTy, they were all over getting it fixed, and making sure I wasn’t inconvenienced in any way at all…
I love Tesla cars, clearly as I have a third one ordered…. Disappointed in how they are treating customers lately…
