This has gone beyond ludicrous. If I had just got my re ordered back in Sept when the first date was canceled. I would have the van already. Just does not make sense.That sucks! I'd be giving that MB regional sales rep a call today. Hoping in turns up soon for you.
Before my current order of a Tenorite Grey crew being built in Germany I was going to purchase another from Charleston in Tenorite, selenite, graphite grey or even blue, but when the order was placed for 3rd decade of February the order came back as only having the option of their four color rainbow ...... and that was, black, silver, white or pebble grey, at least Charleston’s rainbow ? somehow gained one colorAnyone have an update on colors from Charleston, or are we still stuck with 3?
I ordered another van but from Dusseldorf this time. May take longer to get but at least van will not be plagued with issues. Those Charleston produced vans seem to be hit and miss on the quality. Order a Charleston build at your own risk.Anyone have an update on colors from Charleston, or are we still stuck with 3?
Nope silver was an option available, and I have a build sheet that Fort Wayne MB Vans has on order for February build if anyone is interested. Pebble grey was also available but no other colors, like you I was very glad to get a German build!I ordered another van but from Dusseldorf this time.

Most colors are available for German built vans. Last I heard Charleston is now down to only black and white choice.No more silver
After waiting over 9 months and still no van. Was fed up with the lies and BS. Got my deposit back and ordered a Dusseldorf build 11/5 for a 12/10 production. At that time only black and white was offered in Charleston. They really need to pull their heads out of their asses at that Charleston Plant. Worst way of doing business I've ever witnessed in the automotive industry. Have over 35 years experience with Lexus Toyota Honda Acura too.Nope silver was an option available, and I have a build sheet that Fort Wayne MB Vans has on order for February build if anyone is interested.

You are correct I agree someone at MB needs to take note of how to deal with the rest of the buying public. The pious nature of the factory to just change placed orders or not even deliver has been a very large frustration for myself and many others on the forum. I’ve never had or could have imagined such a frustration with trying to order a new vehicle, I’ve never had any issues in ordering a new vehicle before and now the worry of my order not being fulfilled as I ordered or changed at the last moment is really a concern of mine!After waiting over 9 months and still no van.

Looking for a low roof passenger. I'm told they will be Charleston only.Order a Charleston build at your own risk.

This is a commercial division, we are a small market of obsessive folks living in fantasy land. Cannot compare it to buying a regular car. MB caters well to business community , bulk fleet orders and those guys are not looking for finesse. Most importantly no matter what you choose, MB will decide where your van will be built, no guarantees on country. For now yes due to teething issues in Charleston some orders are being routed to Düsseldorf. Save yourself another disappointment if after all this your van gets built in Charleston!I ordered another van but from Dusseldorf this time.

The van has been supposedly built since July. Set for release 9/2 then pulled and changed to 11/30. December and Still no van. These undelivered vans are what they claim are "rework status" or " missing parts" or PNS or what ever other story the MBVANS managers tell the dealers. I suspect damaged during assembly and/or must be taken apart to fix critical issues such as wrong wiring harness installed or maybe cut during production., MB will decide where your van will be built, no guarantees on country.

If you read his past post. You can see he has little product knowledgeWhere are you getting your information?
When you order a Sprinter, the build location and production window are specified in the PO. Code Z4V is for production in Dusseldorf and vans from Charleston are code Z4X. It would seem highly unlikely that MB could switch a build location and keep the same production date. Plus of course it would require a change to the PO. Do you have first-hand knowledge that this is happening?
I did not know that Daimler made a "low roof" passenger van. I was told by two dealers that they did not. Ford Transits DO come with a low roof passenger option - I should know I own one. Has something changed?Looking for a low roof passenger. I'm told they will be Charleston only.

I know the Sprinter product and the ordering process quite well. Sorry to disappoint you. He/She/Tranny Forum Troll or whatever you may be. You should spend more time learning, reading and paying attention. End of the day your obviously clueless on how the custom ordering, purchase orders, and production is performed.Yup, could be a she too) looks like you assume a lot, no wonder disappointment finds you!
