How many days from ordering to obtaining a VIN number?
I ordered on 08/04. Still no VIN. West coast.
My dream is they are spending more time on quality control due to the backlash, meaning the ones rolling off the line right now are getting extra attention and will have all the latest fixes.
My dream...
wow that looks terrible. I have never even heard of misaligned pieces like that in all the other cars I've owned. Really starting to make me question getting an X.
what happens to cars that were returned? do they just become inventory vehicles? Any way to tell if it was returned or refused on delivery?
Technically they cannot be inventory vehicles since they are titled, so they have to be sold as Used. But Tesla has been known to sell them as inventory.
I ordered 7/27 got confirmation on 7/29 then a call on 8/8 that my car is ready for delivery. never got a VIN until i got the car.
quick update on my car. talked to tesla delivery yesterday and told them that if they couldn't schedule me earlier for service then i would return the car today since i was still with in the 7 day return period, but was quickly called this morning to bring my car in so they could fix it. brought it in at 11am and was told by 3pm everything will be fixed so they called me an uber so i can go where ever, 3pm came and was told every thing else got fixed except for the autopilot and to give them another 1-2hrs. 5pm got a call that they still couldn't fix autopilot and some how my car was rejecting all the updates they are doing. so they gave me a loaner Model S which was nice and told me they will give me an update tomorrow morning. hopefully they could fix it by then, i'm just glad the person helping me was very nice and gave me updates every hour on what is happening on my car.
Heres's my issues with my recent delivery:
Tesla Model X 2019 Inspection
Wow that is a lot of paint issues. I will admit, i did not go over mine probably as thoroughly as others. I did ask my detailers if they found anything as they were installing the PPF, and they only found a couple minor dust spots, where something got under the paint when it was sprayed.
I do have the rear window corner's popping out a bit at the trailing edge of each side, but It was not enough for me to worry about it.
The only cosmetic issue I could find was inside with one of the pillar support covers having the material pulled away. They replaced it with a mobile service call. They also adjusted the wiper as it was going way off the driver's side. And he also adjusted the driver's window so it would not bind and squeak about half way closed. Now it closes fine.
As many issues as people post here, I don't know if I am lucky or if we just hear more about the issues, than the lack thereof.
You can ask at a store. Someone at a computer can give you the answer in seconds.what happens to cars that were returned? do they just become inventory vehicles? Any way to tell if it was returned or refused on delivery?
They said the chrome sticks out and not something they can fix. Rubber sticking out - same thing. I have now seen a few dust particles trapped in my red paint. Another reminder Tesla has room to improve. But I’m not letting it bug me. It’s only noticeable if I’m looking for it. Sort of like inclusions in a diamond.Heres's my issues with my recent delivery:

Guys i've decided to act on the return policy with in 7 days. Theres just too many issues to be concerned about. I'm going to request for a new model X
You don't just request a new Model X. You return your existing one and they refund you your money. You can place a new order whenever you can pay for another one. (It can take up to two months to get your money back.)
You've personally done this?
No, but I have seen plenty of reports here on TMC of people that have. You can just request a new Model X if you do it before you take delivery. Once you take delivery it is much more painful.
