Finally picked up my car today! Of course there were some issues with it. The left rear taillight has a bad gasket and has condensation in it. The passenger doors have a gap in it and the interior trim over the rear passenger door isn’t aligned. Made an appointment to get these taken care of next week. It drove wonderful and it had a full charge on it. Here are some pictures of the car and the issues for people to look for.View attachment 676820

You had some serious build quality issues. I wouldn't be a happy camper at all! The gaps and the rear tail light sheesh!

Photo #3 is pretty atrocious. How does that slip by the factory?

Just got a follow-up text saying " Great! Please wait to hear from the delivery team when the vehicle is ready"

Exactly!

I wouldn’t go that far, and poster can still enjoy his new car. Just ridiculous that anyone at Tesla would sign off on that interior trim alignment as “good enough”.

Regarding the condensation, that happened with my last car (Subaru), too. But it was dry when I purchased the car, so wasn’t visible until a few weeks later.

Not sure whether or not the passenger door panel gaps are out of spec. Would have to compare with other Model 3s in the lot.

Overall, car looks beautiful, @Frostman1982! Enjoy!

For a 40k car that's unacceptable imo the panel gaps sure but the tail light is a bit too far.

Fair enough, but luckily an easy fix.

Update for San Diego peeps:

After getting the Tesla Vision agreement prompt this morning and receiving my VIN, I got the text to schedule pick-up at 1:50pm. I paid my down payment via Plaid through the website and bought Tesla Insurance.

The earliest pick-up time they listed was on Friday, 6/25 @ 10:30am.

Early in May, I spoke to my SA and he told me to look out for a text to schedule delivery sometime in the last week of May or the first week of June. Long story short that didn't end up happening. June 3rd I speak to him again and he says the week of June 8th I'll get a text to schedule delivery. Again, that didn't end up happening. Growing impatient I reached out again on June 17 and he stated by June 23rd you should get a text to schedule delivery. Today is June 23rd and no such text has been received. Tesla account showing an EDD of 7-11 weeks. I understand that my SA has no say in how fast cars are being shipped to Vancouver but it has become extremely difficult watching friends and family who ordered the same exact car as I receive their cars before me ( I ordered in March & they ordered in April, some even in May).

Has anybody in Vancouver gotten their cars yet?

Ordered on March 30th - SR+ White Exterior/Black Interior/NO FSD/Base Aero Wheels

I haven’t got a response
I’ll share when I get a response here with you guys

Based on this thread and Reddit, I feel left out from this text. EDD has been June 25-30 for the last week and no update text??

No point to reach out to my SA since he hasn’t replied in weeks and all I would get is “I don’t know, we’ll need to wait for a VIN”

They have great reviews. I’ll order that. Thank you for the recommendation.

The Quick Bandit tag bracket was more expensive than I expected. And there are cheaper alternatives. But it seems to be a quality product and well made. I found it required a good bit of force to push in to the grill...so be ready for that. Once in the grill you lock it in place with a supplied Allen wrench.
