Well. Add me to the list of waiting on semiconductors. Yesterday exec res team said from her end it looks to be officially ready to ship and today got an email from GM saying waiting on the parts.... I dont think anyone at GM knows what the heck is going on and don't think they really care. Meanwhile, asked the dealer yesterday to check on it and sent her a screen shot of the email from res team.... crickets....
Do you have a window sticker yet?

Just got a call from my dealer today. Window switch thingy from Ukraine is the missing part. Obviously constrained coming from there. GM has sourced another producer for the part, but is going to have issues transporting truck back to factory and then stopping assembly line to put the part in. That's the latest for me :win:
What’s the window switch thingy and what is it that you ordered again?

So, I have a window sticker since two weeks or so but 0 movement. The day that WS was available my dealer could see it in VIN view but the last time I checked a few days ago with them supposedly they can’t see it anymore and there’s no more status code (?!) (it was at 4300 this whole time since built mid-May). I thought having a WS meant hope but I wonder who else has a WS and no movement?

I’ve got a somewhat similar situation as you . Window sticker became available 8 days ago but no movement. Still in Texas . I too also thought it meant that the vehicle would be transported soon . I wonder if the process has somewhat changed and they might be assigning window stickers to vehicles that might be missing a chip or so .

Strangely mine doesn’t even show up on the dealer or gmc inventory site . Does yours ?

so you're saying it was built in mid-May, and then a month later the window sticker populated? odd, but i'd lean towards that meaning it had "something" that needed to be installed for it to be considered completed, that's now been installed but you may still be in for another month or so wait because it probably didn't get on the "ready to ship to dealer list" until two weeks ago

Window sticker should mean its ready for shipping but doesn't mean anything is going to happen faster....ours had a window sticker the day after it was built, but then sat at Midlothian for a month waiting on a ride (back in late March - delivered to dealer in late Apr...we are 5hrs from the plant so it showed up the day after the jack cooper site updated with shipping details

Thanks for this . I was thinking that even though it has a sticker and is completed , logistics is a totally different process and they’re completely swamped , hopefully abiding by some form of FIFO , thus the delay in shipping competed vehicles

That’s right.
TPW 5/16, built on 5/19
WS appeared on 6/24, dealer confirmed they can see in VIN view “ready to ship”
This Wed dealer said “not showing MP status”. Not sure what to make of it.
