Order to delivery time

Hello!
I ordered in 11/17/20, eta was 3/13, 3/25 now 4/7 or 4/10. Telluride made, just waiting on a ride to NC. Anyone else having issues with delivery?
I'm about the same to Raleigh, NC. ETA was 3/23, 3/30 now 4/9. The vin was created on 3/4

Well, the $1,225.00 Freight & Delivery charge on the sticker price isn't proving to be effective for several at this point....

She’s here! Less than 3 months from order to delivery. See signature block for details. Ready to put some miles on her this week. Thanks to everyone on this forum for your help!
 
I just got word from my sales rep that my Baby has arrived and will be ready for pickup later today. It is one day shy of 3 months to the day of my order placement on 1/4/2021

Maybe, put a $500 refundable deposit and order with i25 KIA Denver area and see what comes in first...

MSRP, $700 Dealer/Doc fee. 2 hour flight, 12 hour drive.
 
The waiting game is excruciating. I have seen/heard of quite a few becoming available in the Columbus Ohio area but many dealers are charging $1k to $5k above MSRP. The ones coming available haven't been my color/option preferences.

Initially my order submitted Feb 26th (SX in Everlasting FWD) was rejected from Kia system. On Mar 13th, my dealer said they had just had an SXP AWD in Wolf Grey accepted with an ETA of mid May. I put down my $1k refundable deposit. My dealer sales at MSRP. I know they have two of them coming on the same day. Have yet to see them pop up here but I know they will long before my dealer has the details.

As much as I want my new Telluride, I really like my salesperson and dealer so I will continue to wait very impatiently while checking here multiple times a day.

Grateful to have a place to research! And a community of people who understand.
 
Yes the waiting is tough but its so worth it. I just got back home from driving my new ride and I have absolutely no regrets. Thing drives like a dream, so smooth and quite and the driver assist is flawless. It handled the lanes and NJ Garden State PKWY traffic impeccably well despite all the aggressive NY/NJ drivers around us.

I have the exact same configuration and still waiting as well. Order placed 12/26/20.
 
Finally got the call that my car was in after waiting over 3 months. Took the car for a test drive with the sales guy and as soon as I started accelerating after pulling out of the parking lot I noticed a strong vibration when pushing the gas pedal. Not sure what the issue is but the Sales guy could feel it also...hard not to notice. I didn't really get to test it much after that as we just turned around and took it back to the dealer but it didn't seem to have much accelerating either.

Maybe it is a simple fix but I am not getting my expectations up. I don't want to get a new vehicle that will have a lingering problem for as long as I own it. Back to waiting.
 
🤦‍♂️ that sucks. Let us know when they fix it

I'm ordering my SX-P Gray/Gray today from a Raleigh NC dealer. I've been procrastinating forever. According to a website the 2022's will go up $1500. Im hoping if I order today, I can get it before its a 2022. Im not paying another $1500 for the same car.

Did it list any changes at all?

Very little changes to none. I was hoping it would have the air Android but the article didn't mention it.

I ordered the same configuration in early March and I was told 10 months minimum and it would be the 22 model. I was hoping that it was an exaggeration of wait time... I am guessing it will be accurate.

Or, put an order in with i25 KIA, Denver area and see what comes in first.
 
Delivery moved up a few weeks! See my signature for details.

follow up: this is the first response I got back about the issue with the car. I am not a mechanic but not sure I buy it. It only vibrated when I pushed on the accelerator.

“I was just able to get word from them that it was a tire on the passenger side, the weight wasn't balanced, which was the cause. They're going to put it through the receiving and inspection process at some point today. I should have a complete determination that that is the only issue by the end of the day.”
