Perhaps ours will be on the same shipment!? I had to call and push them for the soft date. Apparently it’s not something they give out to customers. Are you planning to pick-up in Renton or Lynwood?

 

[Jamezam]

Renton according to the Operations Advisor.

 

[WhyYesPlease]

Ordered our Model Y on Aug 22. Added data to the worksheet. SO excited!

Finally some movement. Ordered 6/12. Got a text to schedule pickup Sept 4th. In the mean time, my loan approval has expired, and it seems Tesla forgot about the Model S trade-in they offered. I'm working on getting those squared away again.

Stealth performance, blue, with 20" inductions. VIN 37XXX

Frustrated by having to re-jump though many of these hoops. But hoping it's smooth sailing from here.

Here is a chart that shows how VINs are not assigned sequentially. Model 3/Y VINs are not sequential but Model S/X are. The chart shows Model Y based on this spreadsheet (see the links in the opening message)

For example, in June, 11 buyers reported receiving VINs in the 23K range but then in July, 9 buyers reported VINs in the 16K range. If you know your VIN, this chart should give you a pretty good idea about when your car was built. Of course, you can check that at the delivery by looking at the driver's door frame label.

 

[Troy]

You might have already seen this chart on the spreadsheet but it's now dynamic and will update automatically. It looks like production has slowed down again in the last few days. Not sure if it's because they want to switch to the new casting machine or that's later but at least we have some visibility on what's going on.

17 Aug was very high. Maybe they performed a stress test on that day. They sometimes do these tests to find out the next bottleneck.

On my Tesla account, a new thing showed up.

Submit Final Payment with a place to add bank account.

Do I need to input my bank account? I was planning on giving them a personal check after I check out the car and actually accept it.

My SA told me it is fine to just bring a personal check on delivery day.

 

[Stach]

My SA told me it is fine to just bring a personal check on delivery day.

Also, you should have a new MVPA (Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement) document at the bottom of your account page that will have your VIN inside.

Just got delivery notification text.....pick up on Sunday, but no VIN yet. Hmmmm, odd. Difficult to secure financing and insurance without VIN. Might this pose a problem with a Sunday pickup or has Tesla accepted notification from credit union as enough?

UPDATE: got a text the next day saying it's still in transit and is scheduled for first week of September.....the roller coaster of emotions.....

My SA told me it is fine to just bring a personal check on delivery day.

Check that. Mine initially told me that, then the call I got before delivery day specifically said no checks, and that it was a new rule. This was at Scottsdale-Raintree.

I paid through the app at the delivery location after looking at my car. No issues when doing that for me.

I will say paying like that has now linked my checking account to my Tesla account and I do not see any way of removing it. Credit cards I can add, remove, swap, etc., but there is now no way to remove my checking account as far as I can tell. Anyone else?

Wow, thanks for that. Continues with the theme that SAs seem to not be on the same page with various topics.

Payment and Fees
What are the accepted methods of payment?
Before driving off with your new Tesla, we require that the balance be paid in full, either personally or by way of guarantee from a financing institution.

Confirm your method of payment with your Tesla representative prior to Delivery Day. In some states, payment must be received before delivery and cannot be accepted at time of pick-up.


Final payment is accepted via:

• Electronic check (direct debit) in your Tesla Account
• Wire transfer
• Personal or cashier’s check at time of pick-up, with your Reservation Number (RN) and name in the memo line

Note: Credit Cards are only accepted for the initial order fee.

Got my call up text that my MY is on it’s way to my SC! Went on the link provided and scheduled for 9/10. Unfortunately could not do the earliest 9/8 or 9/9 slots as it’s a 2 hr drive for me. Excited to see movement!

 

[MorningRedEye]

I got the text the my MY is on its way to the SC today too! VIN is 36XXX. Scheduled pickup for 9/9. Pumped!

Huzzah! Got VIN via MVPA 41###

 

[Ruffles]

I got a text yesterday estimating delivery in 1-2 weeks but I still don't have a VIN. I kind of thought that should happen by now if actual delivery is that close.

I did not get my VIN until 5 days before delivery...and after they had preassigned a delivery appointment.
