Production Date and ETA to dealer?
Hello forum friends, just wanted to know how long it took to receive your Mercedes from stated production date on paperwork. My production date shows 9/6/23.
thank you
It takes about a week to build but the bigger issue will be how far away from Alabama you are. The greater the distance, the longer it'll take for you to receive it.
Cars may not go directly from the factory to the dealership. They may make an interim stop in Baltimore for addition of some options and final inspection.
Locking lug bolts and Chrome rear bumper trim are examples.

The Vehicle Processing Center (VPC) for GLEs is located next to the plant in Alabama.
There can be a hold up there, if the accessories aren't available.
Production off date does not include time at VPC

Mine went to Baltimore. Delivery was in Colorado.
I didn't know about a VPC at the plant, other than the place they shove them off to the side until they become drivable.
I don't believe there is a VPC at the plant but there is one nearby. There are three VPC locations for mbusa, Baltimore MD, Long Beach CA, and Brunswick GA
How long does it usually take at the VPC? I got notified by the dealer that mine was at the VPC.
I think our GLE sat in the Brunswick VPC for about a week. Sometimes they get backed up especially if you are having items installed there like illuminated star, roof spoilers, etc.
Dealer advised my build GLE 450 delivered on 9/8. It is still at distribution center. Am about 2 hrs from Brunswick.
Dealer just called. Vehicle is in but they took to wrong dealer abt 90 minutes away and left the wrong vehicle with my dealer. Mercedes has to transport the vehicles so it probably won't be until Tuesday they get my vehicle switched to correct dealer.

Hello All, I just got a build date for my 2024 GLG53! It's scheduled for November 10 and shows and expected delivery date of December 2. Does that sound realistic?
