In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

I had been watching Failcat obsessively and never saw my vehicle show up. Call your dealer!
Understanding my stance in line of KFOS allocation for my dealership (less than 7 🥴) - the vehicles publishing in FailCat have previously been assigned a VIN and are being published because they are going into painting. My dealer stated they would advise when my order was accepted into KFOS (VIN initially created).

The reasoning for my question - vehicles showing in FailCat have been accepted into KFOS X_amount_of_time (prior) to when they are publicly published in FailCat.

The dealer stated they would advise when my order was accepted into KFOS, I am just simply trying to back track data I've been capturing.
 
Ordered from John Plewka at Waukegan Kia on 10/16/2021. Just received tentative production start of 12/21/2021.
Same! I ordered from John on 10/15/21 and received our production schedule this week with an estimated delivery of 1/29/21
 
just to document - ordered Dec 08 '21
wolf gray / black leather nightfall

Can anyone explain why two cars made after mine hit failcat on 11/11 (same dealer, exact model, color, and accessories) made it to my dealer before mine did and my eta has been pushed from 11/30 to 12/7 to 12/14 to now 12/21, my sales rep is worthless.
 
anyone here order before me and still waiting? Ordered july 6th and still no ETA. Fergerson in tulsa, ok...

You would have as much luck asking a magic 8 ball to get an answer trying to figure out the process. A dealer could have 2 vehicles picked up in the same KFOS window and have initial ETA's a month apart. Once they get picked up, they go into the magic KIA mixing bowl and the initial ETA's are spit out. In the two years of observation, that is the most hidden part of the whole process.

Quick order update from my end on an order placed at Wesley Chapel, FL

Placed order on 11.9.2021
Ordered picked up KFOS: 12.6.2021 (no VIN)
ETA to dealer: 1.28.2022

Im assuming my dealer is using their best judgement when predicting ETA since i dont have a VIN yet.
 
Well, today is supposed to be the day!!! I'm picking up my new Telly at noon today if everything goes smooth!!!! Almost a 4 month wait from KIA Autosport in Pensacola FL
 
Ordered i25 on 10/23/21 and received update today that eta is 1/28.

Gravity Gray SX Prestige NF with Tow

I ordered on Sept 16th and the expected delivery is Jan 5th
That is a 4 month lead time. I am told that it is taking 5 to 6 months. I paid deposit on 2nd which is posted to my CC also. Do i get some order number from dealer?

Thanks
 
I ordered my SX w/Nightfall and tow on Sept. 9. Dealer called this morning and it is in and I can pick it up tomorrow!!! I'm in CT and bought at MSRP. So EXCITED!!!
Can I ask where you bought??? I put my order in on 9/20 at Executive in Wallingford... have heard nothing... Thanks.

Ordered 6/4 Priemer Kia Lufkin, TX
 
Ordered on 11/05 at i25. ETA 01/22

Dark Moss SX-P with Dune Brown
 
Updated to add that while my vehicle was delivered to Yonkers Kia on November 9th, they sold it to someone else on November 10th without returning my calls about scheduling pick up. Terrible experience... Do not order from Yonkers.
Did you pay a deposit?
 
Did you pay a deposit?
She did. $1K. I don’t know if she got it back though. I think they said it would be refunded. But, have not seen any updates from her on here confirming that.
