Anyone know what this status means?


Ordered my GLB a while ago.
the status finally changed to "ZPFD" - MBUS_Prepare for Delivery.

1. what does that mean?
2. Anyone have any idea how long it might take to arrive to east coast to Northern Virginia?

thanks in advance.

If I recalled correctly, it means vehicle is at VPC?

As for how long it takes, it really depends on how fast they move the vehicles, yours being a 2022 shouldn't require certification from the state that 2023 needs to so that type of wait is not something you would have.

I am sure you taken delivery already, sorry for the late reply I totally missed your post, so I am sorry about that.

I guess you were able to tell that basically means that the next step is to ship it to dealerships as the vehicle preparation centre has received directions to process all the information for the vehicles with this status and prepare for transport, without this status, it generally means that the vehicle preparation centre has no authorization to complete the final processing and inspection and need to wait for such before it can go on to the next step. Since I am pretty sure you taken delivery already, congrats on your new vehicle and I hope you enjoy in good health.
