Another delay! Somehow the SFL Conductor was bumped ahead of the Sunshine Ace, which is now scheduled in port on Jan 9th...not sure why it got priority.

So, interestingly, I checked on the position of the SFL conductor, one of the ships in line in front of the sunshine ace for Houston. Currently it is docked at the port of Galveston. Didn’t think these unloaded there, so not sure why it would be unless it is caring vehicles that get unloaded at a different port.

Good point, could likely be the reason. I sent an email to Ingrid at PWL to see if they had any updates on why the ships are being shuffled around. The SFL conductor, the ship that got pushed ahead of the sunshine ace, is currently still anchored up in Baltimore. Not sure why that ship would get priority over the sunshine ace, which is currently just sitting in the Gulf of Mexico.

Nice, I see that now. And that schedule makes more sense based on where the boats currently are located. Fingers crossed we get unloaded tomorrow night.

@ChocoMoose So my car is now at the Port Processing stage (1/7 actual date). Where is yours currently? Wondering how long it will take us to make it through and get on a truck.

Same status. I was going to reach out to my SA and see if there was any idea of when it would arrive at the dealer. I am only in Austin so not a
huge trip.

just spoke with the dealer today and unfortunate news, apparently my vehicle is on a port hold for some sort of issue. Could either be missing part, software update, or worst-case scenario damaged in transit. Dealer has no way to know specifics so now we venture into the unknown of another delay.

Quick update, vehicle was released from the port today (1/10) and will hopefully be here by the end of the week. Still no information on what caused the "Quality Action" delay.

Any update on your status? Mine is stuck at Port Processing after being released for transport on 1/10. Another 992 on the same ship coming to the same dealer moved to "En Route" on 1/11 so I am thinking the port delay caused me to miss a truck headed my way.

I am still stuck at Port Processing. No updates yet from my dealer.
