frozen status-to build date
does anyone know the delay between frozen status at factory and build date.I ordered on jan 4 and cannot get a build date from my salesman
but i know that status is frozen,because i wanted to add air but was too late.

yeah i know and never had problems with other manufacturers but i have asked my salesman a few times and never get an answer.I must say that the day after i bought the truck my sales rep left the dealer and i was asssigned another salesman.maybe he has less interest.(he has been very polite)but has never answered this question in any of my e mails to him.I also don`t want to be a pain in the *** for him but this is irrating me a bit.thought i might be able to get a bit of info here.truck was supposed to arrive april 7 when i bought it, has been delayed to april 17 or 22 maybe before was the latest news i was able to obtain

We ordered ours the 2nd week in Feb and our dealer called yesterday to tell us the build date is April 16th. I think when we ordered ours the dealer was changing a order that they had ordered for stock and added our specs to that order so it would be faster.

We did get the lighting package and the real leather seats. The lighting package was a must and I can't see spending $60,000 on a vehicle and not having real leather seats. I did want the MB Text dash but that would have delayed the order.

Steel Grey 2012 ML350 is wife's
I would wager there's a good chance that YOUR DEALER has sold your car to another dealer for some quick cash or other quid pro quo.
The ML 166 is experiencing brisk sales and if you ordered it with the lighting package in a color other than black or white then it's a hot commodity... guaranteed.

totally agree with you greg but i ve decided not to get upset about this service by salesman and not fight this battle.if i get some info from this forum well great and if not no big deal, truck will arrive anyway sooner or later. Sooner i hope.Compared to your oerder delay i figure i am way ahead and you are the one who should be pissed off.
jean7of9 thanks for all the information i will keep a heads up with that dealer.

passed by dealer and spoke to a salesman today.(third one, second salesman broke his ankle) he thinks truck should arrive any day build date scheduled february,3 decade. in his opinion after frozen status and build date delivery in montreal should be about 4-5 weeks, he was sending an email to factory to confirm truck was actually built and eta of arrival, said 1 to 1 1/2 day for answer
