Apparently BGA has a rat problem. Many of the cars waiting to be shipped were found to be infested and wiring ate up which seems to have caused the chaos and only 68 cars being built yesterday!

My car was built on 10/14. Anyone else's car built that day? If so, has you car shipped yet, preferably to the west coast?

I am sitting at 4B00 - Bayed, for a few days now and I'm wondering if anyone has received, or is about to receive their car built on 10/14.

Thanks, and yes, I have tried asking every known source there is.....lol

So rat turds will be added to the PDI checklist?

I'm glad to see someone is using the data collected and doing something else with it. Nice work. Did you do it manually?

I reached 4200 status yesterday (shipped) with an estimated delivery (to dealer) of today. Waiting for the call from my salesman now.

Not real purdy here either. After all it’s Michigan in October! I misspoke when I used “delivered”. The car arrived to the dealer today. Actual delivery (to me) is tomorrow. A better weather day to boot. Dealership is in Schoolcraft. About 5 miles from home.

Default I hope it can’t makes a difference

My car is scheduled to be built on the 29th of October approximately 59 cars before the end of the weeks build. I believe everyone on the line takes pride in what they’re building. In the past ever worker was able to take a Corvette home to be able to drive what they built. It really comes down to the ability of quality control to catch any defects before the customer gets their car. Good luck to everyone!

I’m 43 ahead of you, let’s hope that production gets back up to regular numbers so our cars are made on the 29th.

edit: looking at the production spreadsheet, it looks like both of us will be bumped to 11/1 if they average 181 cars per day.

Again, PLEASE do not go back and edit data in a post that has already been liked by RandelB. A "Like" by RandelB means that the data has been received and put into the sheet. It's my marking method (which is not working so great).
