That exact thing happened to me yesterday. Called parts dept at dealer three weeks ago, said they could get the heated steering wheel module and scheduled me to fix on Dec. 6. so I took it in and dropped it off. They called me later that day and told me they did not have the module, and there was no way it could even be retrofitted and based on my VIN, it was not built to ever put one in. When I said it was supposed to be retrofitted later, he looked at me like I was crazy and he had no idea what I was talking about. I showed him my order form and window sticker that says "not equipped with heated steering wheel - includes later retrofit" and he told me he had never seen that before, and that I was basically out of luck. I asked exactly what part it was they said they ordered three weeks ago and he had no clue. It was fantastic.

I am also waiting for the retrofit on my 22 Yukon XL AT4 that I purchased 2/1/22. Last week my dealer stated that no one has received the missing chips for the Seat, heated steering wheel and Locking Steering items. I am really disappointed on the lack of communication from GM on the subject. My dealer told me to call them every week or so... Nice. Glad I received $100 credit for the missing three options. At some point we should be getting a refund for the options if GM can't deliver.

Well I go for round 2 on Friday, they supposedly have the right parts, and I am supposed to be receiving heated steering wheel as well as the seats. The last time they claimed they didn't know my Tahoe had the captains in the second row and the module wasn't the right part for those seats. I'll keep you all posted!

My 2019's heated steering wheel doesn't turn on in cold weather when remote starting, it's not an option in the infotainment either. Although having the heats COOL or HEAT depending on outdoor temperature IS an option. Maybe that's changed for the next generation.
I'd have to say it's still computer controlled as I assumed it would eventually "time out" just like the heated seats do. I don't think I've ever used the steering wheel heat for very long though.
