You’ve been at the port for over 2 months!? That’s insane. Absolutely nothing makes sense in this whole process. Why do some people get so stuck during certain points while others fly through? Is yours a US bound car? From what I’ve heard RAM does not get fixed in Europe but at the VPC in US.

A relatively few of us got caught in what can only be described as "strategic business decision". I should know as I work for one of Germany's largest companies in Canada. I'm happy for those of you getting your cars and in the grand scheme of things, this is more of an annoyance rather than a real problem. And besides, at this price point I cannot think of another car that would scratch my 'dinosaur' itch for an ICE sedan, so I'll wait and live vicariously through the rest of the community on this forum until it's my turn. |

Checked in with the Genius this morning. A work order was opened on Friday 1/14 so hopefully that means the RAM parts are in. Not sure if the CA VPC is open today, so it may be a bit before any movement.

Unfortunately the work order being opened isnt really an indicator of parts being available. Ny work order was opened on 11/29 and my car still sitting in Baltimore.

Well unfortunately I'm still at the Bremerhaven port. Even when RAM is closed, it still needs sea transport + rail from Halifax to the Toronto area (total of 4-6 weeks at best). I sadly believe I'm now near the top of the long haulers for Canada and the US.
We don't mind waiting as this is our fifth car/SUV built in Europe. But this experience has been the most disappointing wait by far, including that for my 911. My wife loves BMW - this M3 is actually for her as a birthday present from last August! Maybe it will count for this year's as well. Lol |

Congrats Merlin I know you’ve been at the VPC a long time. I didn’t know you were a wk 40 build. When did you place your order and get your production #? My order was entered 7/22, I was originally a week 35 build. Got bumped several times to wk 40. I’ve been at VPC for 3 weeks now. I’ve had that RAM recall open for at least 6 months now it feels like it will never change to closed.

I’m happy for you - mine was in QC for 8 weeks - not too optimistic I’ll see my car anytime soon.

Are you still at the VPC? My car is apparently on a truck to be delivered today, but no one knows where it is. I'm betting it wont be here tonight and they will just push the date out another week.

Yeah man been at VPC for three weeks now. No clue if it will a few more weeks or a few more months. There are stories of people waiting 3-4 months for RAM.
