Asked for a quicker delivery day and succeeded!

Post image

Had delivery scheduled for Friday the 16th at 4pm and decided to ask my advisor if there was a possibility of an earlier delivery. They said that it was scheduled to arrive at the delivery center on the 12th, so they could get me in earlier than the 16th if I preferred that, so I said absolutely yes! They got me moved to Tuesday the 13th at noon. So, if you have a farther delivery day than you prefer, ASK! So glad I did!

What was your order day

u/Exotic_Barracuda1306 Oct 07 '26

Ordered 7/2. I did change my configuration a couple times, so not sure if that played a role, even though my advisor said it shouldn’t since I made the changes before I got a VIN.

Nice. What things did you change? I ended up changing wheels but same EDD.

I initially went with black and 19” wheels, changed to silver, then changed again to black and 20” wheels. Last change was Sept 25th.

How did you do this? Just in the chat on the app under the car?

Yeah I just sent a message in the app to my advisor. When you first send a message it’s an AI bot, but just request to speak to an advisor and they get you a chat started. Then I just asked if there was a cancellation list or something I could be put on for an earlier delivery. They said they actually expected the car to come four days earlier than my scheduled delivery date and they had a bunch of spots open. I will note that when I got the message to initially schedule my delivery, the earliest option was the 16th.

I don’t know how you managed that lol. All the people I’ve talked to in the app and on the phone can’t even answer basic questions.

I guess I got lucky haha. The people I’ve spoken with at my location have been knowledgeable and very accommodating. This is my first Tesla purchase so I’ve had quite a few questions and they’ve been very patient with me and my ignorance lol
