Damn, that means if I drop the car off there, I would have to wait one more day. Tough choice.

i dont think u will need to wait for your car there. Cause you will need to book an appointment with them. So, you will end up waiting for your car to be finished. It should be done within the day

VIN not found?

If my VIN is not found when using the web form for the shipping company, does this mean that the car has not been loaded onto a ship yet? Or something else?

Im having the same problem. Sometimes it takes 2 to 4 days after the voyage starts for the vin to show up. If 4 days have passed since the ship left port it is a good bet it is not on the ship. BMW also uses K-line shipping, have you checked to see if they run from Bremerhaven to your area port? It could be on one of their ships if they do. There is no way to track your car if it is on a K-line ship. Im hoping mine is on of the K-line ships that left over the last few days to Port of Charleston SC although I am not very optimistic. It seems that a lot of peoples cars are taking anywhere from 10 days to several weeks to leave port right now.

I am very happy now, I stopped by the dealer today and found out that my car left Bremerhaven on March 2nd on the K-line vessel Emden. It is due to hit the port of Charleston on March the 15th. He said I should get my car on March 21st or so. If anyone elses car here is coming to the Port of Charleston check with your dealer to see if it may be on a K-line vessel. You can not track your car on a K-line vessel. Aaahh, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel

I understand, I am sorry your not on a ship yet. I would be pissed also. I know it doesnt help any now but a few months from now all of this will not be an issue anymore, you will just be enjoying your car. Good luck, there is another K-line vessel called the caribbean highway leaving in a few days and it is only about a 10 day voyage.
