Joined to let you know I'm right there with you. My cross turismo has also been in Houston since 2/22.

My dealer hasn't been able to provide any information on a cause or ETA...

Spoke with my dealer yesterday and he’s just as frustrated as us. The rep at the port is not giving any helpful info. He’s trying to contact someone else now. I’m following back up tomorrow and will update here

Haven’t heard back from the sales manager yet. TYD no longer working for me as of today. May give him a call today or Monday.

Now I'm wondering if my CT will have the electronic steering column adjustment when it gets released from the Port of Benicia. I asked my SA and he said some 2022 Taycans have been arriving with it and some have been arriving without it.

Also, no updates on the reason for the CT hold up.....

UPDATE!! For sure a software update and will take a few hours. Manager has been told it will be done before the 15th for sure (we’ll see). Should expect delivery week of the 18th. He has a follow up scheduled for Monday. Will follow up Wednesday with him.

Thank you for the update! I hope he is right and mine gets released in a similar time frame!

That would match my estimated milestone date for En Route to Porsche Dealer in TYD. My SA is also saying the car will be delivered in April. I hope they are right...

Same here. En route t dealer on 4/15 and delivery 4/29.

Same here! Given that my dealer is less than an hours drive from the port, I suspect that TYD was just batch updated with an approximate timeline rather than this being an indication for a well-thought-out and informed plan
My SA still says they have no idea what's happening

oh well, first world problems for sure - no sense in getting too upset about this

Not sure whether this is related but I started purchase of an in stock 2022 CT three weeks ago (3/12) only to be told that a stop sale order had been placed on the vehicle for reasons unknown. It seemingly has to do with a missing or defective bracket relating to one of the driver assistance components. I was told a week ago that the source of the issue had been discovered they are awaiting a replacement bracket and that once installed they will be able to go forward with delivery. When inquiring about another similarly equipped CT at another dealership I was told that vehicle also had a stop sale order on it and that only 18 vins were affected. The replacement part was shipped last week and will hopefully be in the dealer's hands early this week. I'm hoping to take delivery early next week. ?

Thanks Visceral. Looks to me like the (un-)sweet spot for CT holds is: arriving in US port between Mid-Feb and Mid-March. Late March arrivals seem to be getting through.

Will post here as soon as I get news.

Happy to hear the alarm is not an issue for that owner
