I placed an order almost two weeks ago and still no VIN. I looked at the tracking sheet and I am apparently not alone. Does anybody have any insight to what might be causing the delay? When I placed my order, I put in my location and the ETA for delivery was two weeks. Heck, you can go and custom build one today and the site will say the same thing.
Without a VIN Tesla is unable to complete my trade appraisal. They are also unable to generate a PO without a VIN. That also means that I can't begin the financing process with my credit union until I have a PO. I understand that this is not your average car buying process and some things will be different. If Tesla set's the expectation during the purchase process that I will have my car in two weeks, I expect them to stick with that or to at least explain why there is a delay. Tesla advisers don't have any "visibility" to when, how or if the VIN will be generated.
