Order to delivery time

I ordered a couple of months ago and I am #58. You have months to wait.......
Oh wow I did not realize the list is that long. Generally - once it processes how long till it arrives at the dealership?

It depends where KFOS puts you in the queue. Could be one to two months until it arrives.
 
@brbeaird - Any update from Muncie on your order this month? I haven't heard from anyone so assuming my order did not get picked up again.
Mine either. I have been waiting 4 months so far without a word from Muncie.

A VIN popped up on FC yesterday (Turkey day at noon) that matches exactly what we ordered but I have no way of knowing if it's ours (I'm assuming). My sales rep doesn't know if its our either yet. I thought I had read that initials were attached somewhere. Is that correct?
 
Put deposit down on 9/10. Showed up on failcat 10/21. Delivered to dealer 11/22. In NW Pennsylvania.
Where did you order from? I ordered like 3 weeks before you and haven’t even been told if my order has been picked up

Wondering if people can start posting when they ordered and when they received their Kia (or at least the vin).

I ordered an sx prestige with tow on March 13. Nothing yet.

Many of the threads here have gotten hare to follow woth with the side conversations, it would be helpful to just keep this to dates for people’s reference.
I ordered mine on the 15th and was told today kia has the order and will know something by next Thursday or Friday where it's at in the lineup.
 
Initially I placed an order on July 23rd for an S model. I updated the external color a week later and added an accessory a month later. My initial order still has not been picked up. I was initially quoted 4-6 months since S models weren’t in high demand at my dealer, but now I’m being quoted 8-12 months and still have 5 people in front me on just on my salesperson’s list for an S model. Since I can’t really wait any longer, I’ve accepted an incoming cancelled order. Some insight my salesperson gave me was that a vin doesn’t enter failcat until 2-3 months after a it’s been accepted by KIA; once the vin has been created the ETA is about 2-3 weeks to arrive at the dealer, but the ETA can change several times during that time frame. Hopefully, this info can help someone.

Hoping that isn't the case but may be. I'm solid on what I ordered so won't be changing anything. Sorry that has happened to you, are you looking for another one?

I actually was offered an accepted a cancelled order from my dealer of another trim level. It will be here by next week or at least the week after.

Cool, put up a picture when you get it. Congratulations.
 
Thank you that info is helpful. I placed an order with them two weeks ago, I'll re-check in with them probably first week of December. Hopefully some update by then.
I spoke with our sales guy at Muncie today. The original 6-8 mo wait in October when we ordered is at 8-10 months now.

was that you mk2drdriver who ordered the sx white pearl nightfall prestige with Dune Brown interior? That sounds really sweet, should be worth the wait. I ordered the sx Nightfall with prestige pkg, blk copper with Dune Brown interior. Been checking and watching if anything comes up out there just in case they tell me it will be that long. Hopefully not. I really want those color combinations.
 
Put money down and ordered SX prestige night fall from Schaumburg kia in July. Told me 3-6 months. Still haven’t heard anything. Has anyone ordered from Schaumburg Kia? If so what was your experience and how long did it take for your telluride to arrive?

Ordered on May 29th was told it would be here in November. They don't know when I will get it. They originally told me it would be 4-6 months but now they said it could be 8 months.

Which dealer is this?
 
Which dealer is this?
In Murfreesboro TN.
They have also said they would give me my deposit back since it didn’t come in the time frame. I honestly don’t want to do that but May half to.
 
Man, it sounds like order to delivery dates are getting worse instead of better. I was hoping since kia has upped there production (that's what I was told by the dealer I ordered from) that things would get better.
