Delivery Awful Tesla Buying Experience – Delivery Delayed Multiple Times

2 Upvotes

I ordered my Grey Premium RWD Model Y in Pennsylvania on August 17th, and here’s how things have gone:

August 17: Placed my order. Estimated delivery was 4–6 weeks.

October: Finally received my VIN and scheduled delivery for October 21st.

October 14: Submitted my final payment as instructed by my advisor, 7 days before delivery. Expecting my delivery on the 21st I had already sold my previous car privately because Tesla’s trade-in offer was significantly lower.

October 21: Was told delivery wouldn’t be possible until October 24th.

October 22: Checked in again, only to find out delivery had been delayed AGAIN until October 27th.
Now I’m stuck without a car, having already paid, with my financing expiring on October 28th and no guarantee things won’t be delayed again.

To top it all off, I’m getting a 2026 model just two months before the end of the year.

I have orded two different types of mounts that are supposed to be compatible with rhr Model Y Juniper but none of them fit or hook into the rear seat like the ad shows due to the performance seats having a different layout.

Has anyone found one that works?

Thanks in advance!

How common are rattles?

1 Upvotes

Ordered on 10/16 and have been going down virtually every rabbit hole, from accessories to FSD and every topic in-between.

But the rattle rabbit hole now has me paranoid my new car might rattle.

How big of a deal / common is this, actually?

Edited because I know everyone is obsessed with delivery: original estimate was end of December to early January. It was updated to December 15-30 and my gut tells me it may come even sooner, but that’s just “vibes” lol. Stealth gray with black interior!

Talk me into the Model Y...

0 Upvotes

So I'm in the market for an EV. Been looking at the Model Y, Rivian R2 & Cadillac Optiq.

Autonomous driving is pretty much my #1 priority, and specifically highway autonomous driving. City autonomous driving is not a priority for me as most of my driving is highway.

I test drove a Model Y and loved the FSD, although I didn't get an extended drive. The thing is, outside of the FSD, range and the cost, there is pretty much nothing that I love or even like about the Model Y or any Tesla...don't love the look (it's fine, but it's just so boring), hate that there is no display behind the steering wheel, or even a HUD. No Apple Carplay (which I realize is a problem for all the vehicles I'm looking at). And the overall quality of the interior seems kind of cheap compared to the Rivian in particular. Also hate the $100/month charge.

Curious how Super Cruise compares to Tesla FSD specifically on highways, as I haven't test drove Super Cruise yet.

I'm on the waiting list and test drove a Rivian R2. Liked the vehicle itself a lot (much more than a Tesla), but didn't get to try the autonomy all that much. What I tried seemed well behind Tesla FSD.

Financing help

Post image
• Upvotes

What should I do with my financing? I ordered the model y on Wednesday and secured the 1.99% but not sure if I should accept it now or at delivery. I know they just increased it to 2.49% so I’m not sure if I should accept the 2% now? I didn’t accept it yet because I know delivery times have been long and didn’t know if they would keep increasing it.

Need Delivery After January 2nd

1 Upvotes

Is there anyway to tell Tesla that I can’t pick the car up before January 2nd? Do I just need to make sure the delivery date says January before ordering? Right now it says December-January. Curious if anyone has ran into this before.

Ordering new model Y

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone - I’m considering leasing a new model Y premium and wanted to ask if there is anything I should know before starting the process.

I did a demo drive yesterday and enjoyed the experience.

My main questions are:

- any new hardware updates I should hold out for (even if it’s by a few months)
- is there anything I should know about Tesla’s leasing process before I call the Tesla sales rep that’s blowing up my phone?

I know I can research this, but figured I’d post anyways. Thank you in advance!

At this point let’s just make jokes about how stressed we are while waiting. At least we will laugh while passing time lol. This should be good. Im pretty sure I check the app 300+ times a day 😂😂😂

Tesla Model Y Financing Loan

1 Upvotes

Hey all,

I'm planning to purchase Model Y by end of the month OCT.

I’ve got two options for my EV loan: Driva and CBA. Is anyone currently using either of these, and how has your experience been so far?

Which one would you recommend, and are there any other options worth considering? I’m not considering a novated lease.

Would appreciate any feedback or recommendations. Thanks! TIA
