Thanks, and same to you! My salesman said he thought maybe he'd have it in the next two weeks, but said he has also seen trucks offloaded from the train, and then they sit in a lot for a month before they're ever delivered to the dealership. I reassured him that I will steal it if that happens.GM customer service told me today it now shipped, but wont be more specific. I am hoping they didnt confuse the shipping to the holding yard to the one to my dealer. I hope my status is same as yours.
Regardless, congratulations, hopefully youll be driving it soon!
@TahoeSooner I saw your thread and thought I'd share my experience so you can see how it went and multitude of reasons a car may still be sitting in "not officially accepted" status.I ordered my '22 Yukon Denali on 10/06/2021; as a few people have mentioned, dealers are allocated so many Yukon Denali's each week/every other week, etc. When my dealership finally got a Denali allocation, there would be things I'd have to give up: such as the sliding center counsel - which I was fine with...so they'd remove it and wait for GM to accept it. Then, they'd get another allocation, but GM would come back and say "well, this has the ultimate package with the rear entertainment package, and we aren't doing any of the REP right now" - so I agreed to remove it. The next zinger was "Okay, we are also not doing any panoramic sunroofs on any cars right now", which was a HUGE no for me, so I told them I'd wait until they were allowing orders again with a sunroof.
Then I got a call in Feb saying "we can finally build your Yukon! We have a Denali allocation - BUT, we cannot give you the Ultimate/Reserve Package, we will have to break everything down. GM is not building the Max Trailering package; they are also not building any Yukons with the Advanced Technology package which includes: Adaptive Cruise Control, Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking, Reverse Automatic Braking, Rear Camera Mirror, Rear Camera Mirror Washer, or the Advanced Security Package content. They are not building anything with the Advanced Security Package, which includes: Door lock and latch shields, Inclination sensor, Vehicle interior movement sensor, Self-powered horn, Glass break sensors in rear quarter glass and liftgate window. They are also not building any Yukons with the Adaptive Air Ride suspension."
It was a VERY tough call, but I agreed to move forward without these items; I didn't care about the trailering, as I don't plan to tow anything. The biggest thing for me was skipping on the adaptive air ride suspension...I really hope I don't regret it. My salesman had to submit an entirely new order and it was accepted the same day.
Here's the dates of how my car has moved so far:
- 03/04: Status 2000: Accepted by GM - TPW (Target Production Week) of 04/04/2021.
- 03/14: Status 3000: Order Accepted by Production Control; TPW moved up to 03/28
- 03/28: Status 3400: Order Broadcast For Production (Loaded on Assembly Plant Computers
- 04/08: Status 3400: Order Broadcast For Production (Loaded on Assembly Plant Computers
So, once it's accepted by GM, you can see that it still takes some time to go through the process of then being accepted by production control and THEN being built. My salesman believes it should arrive late-April or early-May. Super excited!
What does approved for production mean? Do you have an order number at that time?Your salesman should have everything, it’s most likely code 1000 which means submitted for order but not accepted. 2000 means accepted by GM. And yea there’s no RSE anymore so it won’t get accepted. Just drop that and add some aftermarket screens for half the price.
Maybe code 3000. U get an order number immediately when your dealer places an order with GMWhat does approved for production mean? Do you have an order number at that time?
