Resolved: webDEALER Performance Issues (11/14/2023 06:30 PM)

Good evening,


The webDealer system performance issues have now been resolved.

The webDealer system is now available as of 06:30 PM, Tuesday, November 14, 2023.

We apologize for the inconvenience and any impact on you or your customers.

Please remember that if you used an Internet Down tag, you must enter the information for that tag
into webDealer as soon as the system is accessible. Doing this will ensure you always have the full
allocation of unused Internet Down tags available when you need them. Also remember that unused
Internet Down tags are valid for one year from the date they are printed.

 

Thank you,

Texas Department of Motor Vehicles
