I read also that some Porsches were recently shipped without TPMS due to the shortage and will be fitted at the port when parts arrive there.

My 2021 C2S completed production on 4/22 and was at the port of Emden a day later. But the car is not scheduled to ship until May 14 so I may be affected by the TPMS issue as that seems a long time to wait for a ship. Date due at the dealer is shown on TYD as June 6 and that is almost a week earlier than the original date.

yes I was just at my dealer yesterday and there is a major issue with TPMS not being available. Due to the fact that it is required by law in the states these cars cannot ship until they are installed. I also heard that due to the chip shortage some electric steering columns are being built and shipped as manual steering columns and will be changed out at a later date. Crazy

RCC Classic expected in port at 4 pm per latest update.

I've heard that until September (for now) power seats remain available but without the memory package. Anyone have any idea if the memory package could also be retrofitted similar to the power steering wheel adjustment mentioned above?

Chip shortages affecting the availability of TPMS sensors wasn’t on anyone’s pandemic bingo card.

I have a Macan GTS stuck at my dealership because of that. I hope it won't be too long before it gets sorted out.

Bishu Highway at Emden Port
 
It looks like my C2s will be loaded on the Bishu Highway vessel soon, destination Jacksonville Fl.
Anyone else on this trip ?

Over a month in production. Ugh. I spoke to my SA in Manhattan and he said the delays are very real. I do hope mine re-adjusts up, but not hopeful. But why push up production just to have it sit midway?

update: TYD is crazy- I’m now on my way to Emden after 14 days in production, and I’m back on my original schedule!!

I also had a 911 on the Goodwood, supposedly was to be at the dealer (Autobahn Porsche in Fort Worth) on 5.21.2021 but now it's pushed to 6.4.2021. My drop off port was Houston, something is afoot with everyone apparently being pushed back a few weeks. Initially, I was concerned that perhaps the car was damaged in transport but the delay seems widespread.

Porsche has been trying for weeks to fix the TYD site for me as I couldn't access it at all.
Today success! My C2 is aboard the Siem Confucius. ETA at the dealer is in 10 days_May 28th.
We'll see how accurate that is as my SA informed me a few weeks ago that it would arrive June 14th.
Sent him an email to see if he has any updated info to corroborate the new ETA.
My build locked 9 days earlier than expected so that might have something to do with it.
I did get a pic of the car which is also now my avatar. Here's the pic:

My Taycan is also on Confucius and ship is scheduled to arrive in RI today - Jacksonville the 28th.

I'm seeing what you're seeing XLR82XS. The date the SC docks in Jacksonville is May 28th. It looks like June 14th, as my SA originally told me, is the likely dealer ETA. Interesting that the TYD shows this:

any RCC classic updates?

needmoregarage 05-18-2021 01:05 PM

It appears RCC Classic is currently moored in Baltimore. It was in Sparrows Point yesterday which is just up the channel from Baltimore. Not sure why it seemed held in Sparrows Point but the web site shows it’s moored in port.

No idea if their updates are accurate.

Will check with my SA tomorrow and see if the Porsche system has an update.

[QUOTE=gcurnew;17422151]Chip shortage may be more serious than initially thought. Got this letter today from local Ford dealer (test drove an F-150 5 years ago and they'll NEVER let me forget it).

There's a saying in the car business.... keep nagging the customer until they buy or die :-)

I have a Targa 4 2022 allocation, with an estimated delivery date of 9/3/2021 at PEC-LA. I just changed my configuration -- from Aventurine Green to Shark Blue. Now, on Track Your Dream, the date has switched to "Delivery Date Pending." I'm still at Phase 2 -- "vehicle scheduled for production." My salesman said that the message on his end is the same as before, which is "delivery determined." He thinks the TYD is just re-calibrating because of the new build, although he did note that Shark Blue is new and there may be supply issues with that color.

Is anyone else in this same situation or can someone posit an opinion?
