Hello everyone! Glad i found this thread. My GT3RS is also in Jacksonville and has been at the port since 1/22/2024. My car was actually manufactured in July 2023, I did European Delivery in Nov 2023 and dropped the car off in Madrid on 11/28/2023. My car has 3,500 miles on it. By the time I will hopefully get my car here in Florida, it will 9 months old and it will be 5 months since the date that I dropped if off the shipment. Very unusual situation indeed...

Did you get an email notice about the chip?

US customs hold due to Chinese parts made with forced labor?

Kinda surprised if this is just a US issue. Or maybe the reporting just hasn’t caught up yet. What about other US Allies and Western democracies? There is usually some follow-on to US sanctions.

I did ED on my GT3 Touring on 11/16, and my car has been sitting at the Port of Jacksonville since 12/26. I have the same concerns over warranty, timing for maintenance, etc. that you do.

I have read that Porsche has offered concessions through extended maintenance, warranty, etc. in similar situations in the past, but my dealer has not yet offered anything. And I have not pushed since I don’t have many “facts” at this point.

I tried to PM you directly, but your post count is not high enough. If you are able to contact me, please do. Again, i think our ED makes our situation fairly unique, so hoping we can exchange some info to get the best outcome possible.

Thanks!

My car is scheduled to begin production on 2/26/24 and I now can see a VIN number assigned.

Hopefully a good sign that new chips are starting to be sourced and installed.

Nice! Where does the VIN show up? On TYD on the web? My car production start date is 3/4/24 so I’m right behind you

Carrera-T

I see it in the Porsche app. Click on the ORDER INFORMATION button top/center of the screen. Was there just below my commission number.

I got an email today that my Carrera T has left the port of Baltimore today. I had been there more than a month. I’m hoping to be able to pick it up on Saturday.

Cool! My 3RS has been sitting at the port since 1/22/2024. I was told that I should have by 3/31/2024 now.

Update from the Dealer as of this morning is that the 'gateway module' is on hand and being installed today. After that, waiting on the PPF, hand over a bucket of $ and my Wife is on her way!

Great!

Were you able to confirm the module is located under the seat? Do we know if the seat needs to be removed to access it?

If not, see if you can pry this info from your SA or even speak to the tech that did the work.

I will let you know in a few days...
