If you didn’t order the tow package you’ll be getting delivery before those that did order it.

I got the email from Ineos as well, however the build sheet I got from Michael @curry didn’t have towing option listed, perhaps they knew about this issue for a while now.

same here, but I didn't order mine with the towing package

 

[SandyChamois]

That was the only option I ordered….nothing else on a base wagon

 

[SVP7]

A bit of a foot fault by Ineos but a nice gesture to not charge for it.

 

[bazooka tooth]

I received the same e-mail today, a lapse on the part of corporate. I did not order the tow package on my build.

Annoying that they are removing the whole tow package though just to reinstall later. They should be able to figure out a better way to just lock it off for a month. Locking pin or something . Now we have to wait for them to remove to ship to dealers

 

[SVP7]

That would have been a better approach. I did exchange emails with Michael today and he still thinks it should be before the end of November when Ineos starts releasing them from Baltimore. Curry will find out the day before each release which trucks are being shipped.

Curry called me earlier with an update, not-an-update about the my truck after the trailer hitch email came out. They still don't know which trucks left the port today.....they believe 3 trucks left with around 12 trucks departed but the truck drivers or company had not let them know when they left, nor when they expected to arrive, nor which trucks they were...it is possible mine is one of them, but I doubt it now, as the hitch has to be removed and a plate put on.... And Thursday, I wouldn't expect the Ineos team would be working on Thanksgiving, so it may be Friday before we hear anything. Perhaps any forum members that live close by can do a recon drive by tomorrow to see if any trucks are there or not

Recon driveway is a great idea. I'm 60 miles away unfortunately. But mine was ordered with no hitch, so possibly one of the earlier ones. Britannia Blue FM.

I drove over this afternoon. No cars had arrived yet for the first shipment but they were expecting them shortly. I was told that the trailer hitch issue will not be delaying the shipment to the dealer. They are expecting about 60 cars to be delivered in the next week or so.

Great news, thank you for the report

 

[Drausch1976]

The silence is deafening.

 

[RobS]

The silence is deafening.

Calm before the storm? I hope someone here takes the first delivery from Curry. Wonder how much longer those of us that opted for the tow package will wait over those that didn’t.

 

[Drausch1976]

Seeing dealers in Texas and Colorado doing their first handovers yesterday.

 

[SVP7]

I am sure some will start this week at Curry.

Have you all signed any contracts yet with Curry, if not, then guessing minimum two trips to that dealership will be required.

If you aren't local, there's no reason in 2023 to take a trip just for a contract signing

 

[SVP7]

I haven’t seen a contract yet. But agree no need to go twice.
