So we got financing for a 3/25 delivery that my wife denied for body damage so we're back in line. Our financing runs out on 4/28 and I asked my SA if I need to switch back over to cash before it runs out. He said final payment only matters once the VIN has been assigned. Because we were originally assigned a VIN and then rejected it, the payment option in the app still shows a completed check mark for Insurance and, the blue Start button is clickable for "Additional Payment Required".Oh man, complete it ASAP. If any step is undone (or lapsed such as trade-in milage or expired financing) your car will never come. Most remove trade-in and switch to cash payment to avoid any lapses then swap back when they get a vin.
The SA said it's that way because we already went through the whole process and gave up the VIN but that the financed payment option (plus our $31,000 down payment) does not have to be finalized even if the financing expires. Thanks to this post and many others in my M3LR thread, I just had them switch us to "Cash" just to rule out any further delays so thanks for the post.
