Any updates on this? My dealer in K.W. is also tracking a GLK that came off the boat on the 9th. He tells me it is still in transit as per 'E-Vista'.

I finally received my VIN # today. I tried using the about link for Trace/Track, but the link doesn't seem to work. After lots of digging around, I entered my VIN into the cargo slot and it comes back with "No Records" ??? My VIN is 16 characters/numbers long. Is that correct ? Thanks

Go speak with the business services manager - that's what I did and she was able to pull up the VIN when the sales guy didn't have access to the information. As soon as it's on the boat coming over you should already have the VIN in your hands.

Good news, I contacted my salesperson again and told him my VIN is missing a digit, he then gave me the correct Vin. I checked it on line and my GLK is in Halifax waiting to be trained to Vancouver.
Here are the details:
- Received at Terminal - Bremerhaven: Sept 5
- Loaded on Vessel - Bremerhaven: Sept 12
- Discharged from Vessel - Halifax: Sept 23
Three more weeks to go.....yeah

VIN
Just got my VIN yesterday. The cargo ship "Fedora" is expected in port soon:

Looks like another 3 weeks without any tracking on CN or other rail.

Congrats to all the new GLK owners!!! You're gonna love it!
IU just find it off how there can be such a huge difference between delivery timelines. Mine took only a week (Halifax to Maple), whereas lulumomo's took 17 days to get to Markham!?

Thanks dlinjuly2009,
I will use the check list and I was promised a full time of gas and wheel locks free. I will try to get all weather floor mats free, too.

3 weeks
I just picked up my GLK today, so that's 3 weeks from the ship arriving in Halifax and just under 3 months since my order date July 25.
Did the usual checks - oil level was good at mid-point between max and min; got dunlops :-( instead of pirellis but they seem to handle fine and tailgate is opening all the way. Dealer spent about an hour showing me how things work which was very helpful.
Getting a nice winter jacket in 3 weeks as a freebie. It has some mercedes logo on it.
Great ride! Worth the wait.
