Where is my car?

My car was released to the carrier 6 days ago at Baltimore port. It still hasn’t shown up to the dealer. Does that mean that the car can be released but not put on a truck? The cars destination is dealer Wisconsin. Any ideas?

Arriving at the port doesnt mean its immediately on a carrier- it has to clear inspections then... Baltimore to Wisconsin isnt close and maybe it wasnt picked up by the weekend? I can see 6 days plus as a non issue.

The dealer might be able to give you more details.

The dealer said it was released from vpc to carrier 6 days ago. It cleared inspections the shipping company has had it for 6 days.

Released to carrier means that VPC has notified the transport company and the car is available for pickup.
The carrier then has to schedule pickup according to their logistics. Sometimes the carrier picks it up, drops it off at a hub, then it goes onto another truck transporting other vehicles to you location/dealer. Sometimes it can take a few days sometimes it can take a couple of weeks.
Be patient, she'll be there soon.

My car was on the same boat. It arrived in Baltimore April 5 and my dealer near Philly got it April 7. Keep in mind Philly is 90 minute drive from Baltimore and my car was very late as I ordered it early July. My dealer told me it could take up to 10 days from when it arrived at port. You'll have it soon.

Here is mine!
