Welcome to the forum @COS! I haven't heard of any delays like that. If that's true it's good that Toyota is doing this before delivering to you but they should let you know what it's for. What spec is your bZ4X?Has anyone else had their car delayed at a rail head for a software update?
I reserved my car over a month ago when it had been in the LA port for over a week. Over 2 weeks ago my sales rep at the local dealership said that it had left port by rail and would likely be delivered within 2 weeks.
Over a week ago he said that it had arrived in state but was at Toyota's rail head and that Toyota was holding all cars for a software update before delivery to dealerships and without any additional timeline for how long the delay might be.
That's interesting, my Sales rep is saying his computer shows a 30-day delay that started 5/26/22. I have also heard of shortage of parts for the port installed junk.Has anyone else had their car delayed at a rail head for a software update?

It wouldn’t shock me as Toyota is so close to that 200k number.I have thought the same thing. Especially when the first vehicles he mentioned were also hybrids.

If that's the case, they should release everything on July 1st since that is the start of the 3rd quarter of the year and that will push all Toyota PEV and EV vehicles sold thru the end of December to qualify to the $7,500 tax credit thru the end of 2022.It wouldn’t shock me as Toyota is so close to that 200k number.
Maybe. I don’t know if they’re doing this or not. Just a theory. But I do know a sale isn’t counted against the ev credits until it is final. So they could release a car on the 26th and not have it delivered to the buyer until after the 1st. Toyota is so close to that 200k mark that if they just held back the bz4xs and a few of the Primes they might be able to slide under the threshold and extend the full credit to the end of the year.If that's the case, they should release everything on July 1st since that is the start of the 3rd quarter of the year and that will push all Toyota PEV and EV vehicles sold thru the end of December to qualify to the $7,500 tax credit thru the end of 2022.
I wonder how close they are now though, since I still see new sales of bZ4X's and Primes everyday posted on some Facebook Pages! So, they are cutting it thin.... if they don't hit the mark, then there has to be some other reason for the HOLDS.Maybe. I don’t know if they’re doing this or not. Just a theory.
