Problem with Shipping from Baltimore VPC

Ordered EQS 450 on Mar-5-2022. The car was built on May-3-2022. The car arrived at Baltimore VPC on Jun-4-2022. The car was released to carrier on Jun-13-2022. The unit has not reached North Texas yet. The dealer says the car is still at the VPC. Feels odd that an outbound transporter has not picked up the unit yet.

Any one experiencing similar problem of unit being stuck at Baltimore VPC.

Appreciate the response.

Can't wait to replace 2018 Leaf with EQS.

Remember VPC is not only a routing hub. They make sure the car is up to snuff including installing some market specific options.

There’s a huge trucker shortage. There aren’t people picking up the cars. And in addition, cars are sometimes held at the VPC to get additional parts installed. Be patient

I never got a VIN from my sales person at the local MB dealer. I did order a GLS450 last year with the same sales person and all went well. Thank you though

Understand the function VPC serves. The status says "released to carrier" which would mean the unit is ready to go.

My sales person said, my EQS 450 is on the move and has left Baltimore VPC yesterday. I am really excited about it.
