Midlothian to Possession

[TallDad]

Well, I was told today by my dealer (who I like very much and is frustrated just like the rest of us!) that all she can see is that it's being held in Midlothian due to "Missing Part." My TPW was 5/9 and it hit 4300 on 5/13. I had assumed it was shipping because that's the vibe I was getting from the chat, but she confirmed missing part. It seems that there is a pattern with anything built between 4/1 and 5/15 .... this was a Tahoe. And @kate_t - so excited for you - keeping my fingers crossed!

I would say it started a bit earlier: mine was built on March 23rd. Ill ask if vinview started working like @kate_t ’s today :/

Super congrats to those that are finally having their cars shipped !

So all dealers are able to see the location of the vehicle? The Denali I ordered had a tpw of 5/23 but has no window sticker . The dealer keeps saying that it’s been built and just awaiting shipping but won’t give a location . It’s at 3800 produced status .

I tried to contact gmc chat again asking if there was additional detain or if they could see if it was stuck in midlothian but they just said it appears it is awaiting shipment and that it could take several weeks . Is this a indicator that it might be stuck in midlothian ? Thanks !

I was March 23rd as well. Hopefully they are going FIFO.

I actually tracked a few other cars that had a higher VIN than mine that were built on the same day (6/15), one of which was even identical to my car, and those cars have been shipped with ETA's of 7/6. And they never had the privilege of visiting purgatory/Midlothian.

@Garth Knight Ours was produced on 6/15. If I sent you my VIN could you tell me something? Our dealer said he's not getting accurate updates.

Updated again today with GMC chat, they said the truck is 4300 again (was 4000 on 6/9, and 4300 before that since 4/13 build) and that it is awaiting semi conductors. I think I'll be visiting the dealer next week and putting in an order for a '23 and see which one gets here first.

The event code makes no sense if it's waiting on chips; I feel like they need to do a better job of accurately relaying what these codes are...

Their system is clearly not even setup to provide accurate production/delivery updates, let alone dealing with part shortages and “half-built” trucks

Unless we all massively start canceling orders, refusing deliveries and buying competition there will likely be little change.

My salesman said that the other vehicle he had sitting in Midlothian has also now gone to the Arlington rail yard!

I assume for shipping to dealership and not getting parts installed?

Nothing for mine vinview still off.

Will be very interesting to see if and when your window sticker will appear.
