Maybe they'll be combining the MyPorsche and Porsche Connect apps? As it is now, unless you have a car being tracked through TYD, the MyPorsche app is pretty much useless.

They have been installing TPMS chips at the ports as needed for months now, but that seems to be needed much less than it was a while ago. So yes, they can be installed later, but why they've been doing it at the port vs. at dealerships isn't entirely clear. I have heard that it is not a...

Bravo. Thank you for a bit of sanity. Enjoy your car.

No. Can't agree with a lot of this. Your point #1 is ludicrous. This was not a decision made by "someone at the factory." Please. This is across product lines and factories and a logistics nightmare that every manufacturer is trying to manage. Porsche shut down Macan production for two...

I do know that Porsche has communicated this to dealerships in general terms - and they've all been witnessing the issue for some time now. This is not new. They have been managing it across the product line for months. See my previous posts on this thread (it's not that long). As mentioned...

You all make this out like it's some systemic issue. Sorry, it's not. If a dealer f-d up, that's on them.

Guess I'm with you 100%. Some of the comments and concerns expressed in this thread are beyond the pale. This is a situation that all manufacturers are trying to manage through and I'm sure it's beyond a nightmare. And the dealerships are caught in the middle - asking them to take some...

Maybe not - it's hit and miss. My sister just had a Macan S delivered today. They've had similar issues across the product line - even shut down Macan production for 6 or 8 weeks after hers went into production... it arrived with everything except one of the keys which will come later. The...

As they say, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean that everybody's not out to get you.

Yes, I'd say you're too concerned. It's not a big "fix" for the steering column and your alternative is to wait several months before you get your car. What's your preference?

No doubt - I agree with that. Just mentioned it to stress the point about the invoice. If a delivery comes across as someone trying to hide something, that's on the dealership and their incompetence - not Porsche trying to deceive. Porsche's failure is with their communication - either to the...

Used to live there (Mercer Island), but that was some time ago. It's a different world there now. My dealership is lower volume and they do provide very good service and very proactive communications. For non-TYD vehicles he sends me printouts from PSVM system once a week. And the SM and I...

I’ve been seeing this on Rennlist for some time so not surprised and it does make it easier to accept. Some mentioned getting an email from Porsche NA well ahead of delivery but no idea why that’s hit and miss. See previous post - my SM is notified on the invoice of any open issues. Ive done a...

When the dealership is invoiced for the car, which occurs when the car leaves the port, the invoice includes a list of any open “campaigns” for the car, which includes issues like the steering column. If you think it’s being hidden from you it’s on your dealer. I’d prefer to know sooner but...

I don't think the supply chain shortages are going to increase workload at the port - probably fewer cars to move through versus more. It seems that cars are getting on boats pretty quickly these days - mine arrived at the port when the Bishu Highway was 'at anchor' for a couple days outside...

I have spoken on the phone with the senior service tech at my dealership about the "retrofit." He is very familiar with the temp fix and what needs to be done later and described it as "not complicated." He will show me the specifics if mine shows up without the part. He replaced the PCM on...

Right, but commission number doesn't tell much. It's assigned with the order, but doesn't mean an allocation has been provided. Status is V070 at order with comm number, V200 with allocation. I would also be surprised if the Austrian dealer couldn't provide that info, but have no idea what...

No, don't think that's a realistic timeline. But it is posted on both Marine Traffic and Fleetmon.

Don't think Track Your Dream is available in Austria. And not sure what info is available through dealers to get true updates on status. I would ask the dealership to confirm that an allocation has been provided - it may not be. In either case, if ordered 6 weeks ago it wouldn't be surprising...

As has been mentioned for other models, this has been discussed on the 911 forum in Rennlist for some time. Some customers have received notification from Porsche beforehand, most others not. I'd expect that there would at least be some generic statement made and rationale, but I can't fault...
