Well, just got off the phone with my DA and learned some great information, mainly about how to avoid direct questions and continue to be vague and have a 15 minute conversation about nothing. I am at 14 days and still "in production" with absolutely no expectation on when that might change. I asked him about the 4/27-5/3 stoppage and he, at first, acted like there was no such thing so I pressed him a bit and it became something like "not exactly a stoppage" or " depends on what the wording really is". I could tell he was not happy about what information is on this site with respect to that. When we got past that as I just dropped it, knowing no real explanation was going to be offered, I asked about delivery timing. What was, two weeks ago, " your car should deliver in 2-6 weeks, but most of my customers are more in the 3 week timeframe" has now become " I still believe your car has the chance of delivering within the 6 week timeframe". The tone has changed drastically. It has gone from being very optimistic about making the mid range of the estimate to hopeful of making the estimate at all. Looking like July for me since I cannot take delivery the second half of June, even if offered, and they have known that for months, even promising "before the end of May" at one point. Oh well.
On the plus side, he seemed to imply that we might see some news in the not-to-distant future about additional Service Centers.
As for as the production slowing down or not, a week stoppage would definitely impact that perception. I don't think we can really form an opinion though as we do not know just what having cars stacked up in that middle lot, uncovered, really means. I do think they might be grey cars though. It would not surprise me if we have another situation where we have a bunch of cars waiting for parts again.
My DA ended the conversation by promising another update next Thursday, so he obviously doesn't expect any new developments over the next several days. So, if you got your VIN the last part of April or first part of May, do not expect to be on the shorter side of the timeline with respect to "VIN to delivery" timeframe. If it does happen sooner, feel lucky and go play the lottery.
