Car stuck at US port?

Kromans1 · 11-07-2022, 09:18 AM

Anyone else anxiously awaiting their X1 being put on a truck to the dealership? I know there's a truck driver shortage, but all the stop sales are closed and it's just sitting there, in New Jersey, waiting.

I'm stuck awaiting carrier assignment. I've been there for a bit. I think the bmw app is just delayed.

My status says -"At the port". I called genius and said that there were a couple of stop sales which had a remedy. They were "Add cam" and "spark plugs" and he could see a wrench symbol next to it. He also gave a tentative dealership arrival date of 11/11 which is subject to change based on when these get fixed. My CA who seems to be experienced set an expectation of 10-14 days from the day it arrives at the port for delivery. I have an appointment setup for 11/12 to get the trade in value of my current car. Any tips for negotiating a better trade in value in the current environment would be much appreciated.

Mine is there too, and I thought it could just be the website acting up, but I went to the dealer yesterday and had them check, and their internal system also shows the same status - 182.

Just flipped to In Transit status in the past half hour. Should arrive at my dealership today! Gotta start clearing out my current car, which thankfully came back from the body shop after the accident last week.
