Midlothian to Possession

[esbrittain]

Here is where I'm at. We had a 2015 Yukon SLT that we were trading in. The transmission was starting to go, we did not want to put $7000 into a vehicle we were getting rid of when we had a vehicle in transit (thinking this was not going to be a long process), so it was sold at auction by a friend of ours who is a dealer. I have been driving my husbands truck since.

I have been waiting on a White Frost Denali that has been produced since March and GM Chat tells me is in Midlothian (where new vehicles go to die). There is no window sticker and it has not showed up on the dealers website. In the past few days, three Yukons have shown up on the gmc site as in transit to my local dealership, a White Frost SLT, a Metallic Blue SLT and a Black Denali. I messaged the chat and they stated that the White Frost SLT and Black Denali are produced and IN TRANSIT. The metallic blue is only produced. At this point, I will be taking whatever shows up first, because let's be honest, none of these vehicles have all the options that we are truly looking for to begin with (we wanted the rear media system).

Has anyone had an actual vehicle in transit with a window sticker show up at their dealer and have a timeframe as to what that looked like??

I assume you’ve asked your dealer if those are available or already sold? Seems unimaginable that a dealership would have 3 incoming units that aren’t already promised to people! If so, you got super lucky. Every time I call about one, it’s already been sold.

Anyone know what "Bayed at upfitter in Arlington, TX" means? I assume it's en-route to the factory for retrofit due to QC issues... but at this point.. good grief, who knows.

It's been "in transit" from Midlothian to Arlington for over a week... That's a long 28 miles.

Ironically, I got an email from the Exec Resolution person today:

Kate,

I am sending this email because your 2022 GMC YUKON DENALI has been escalated to our Logistics Team and at this time no further information can be provided. As a reminder the DEALER is your best point of contact for updates on your order but I will continue to monitor your order and will call with an update when one becomes available.

As I have previously discussed, your best options would be to follow up with your selling dealership to possibly explore other options.

I got good news (I hope lol) today! I checked in with the Chevy chat and they said my Tahoe is now in transit (4300) to Arlington after sitting for a month in Midlothian/purgatory. I also checked the window sticker link, like I've been doing everyday for the past month, and I finally have a window sticker today! I'm hoping this means it's on it's way out of Arlington versus on it's way in. Either way thank god it's out of the hopeless void known as Midlothian! I also checked my dealer's website and a Z71 Tahoe just showed up with a vin not too far off from mine starting with 326XX, (mine is 329XX).

For reference my Z71 Tahoe 6.2L with Z71 pkg, pano roof, 2nd row buckets was produced on 6/15 and is headed to Florida. Had been in Midlothian since 6/17. I "ordered" it in the first week of May. One of the many dealers I had emailed my copy pasta to had responded that they had one on order that was exactly what I wanted minus rear media.

I'd say that's promising news. Mine has been back in Arlington for a month, and still no windowsticker, and still at 4D00. Hope it's on route to you

I've blown countless fuses receiving this exact response from the regular chat reps in recent days / weeks. Im certain these Exec Resolution specialists are the same reps we write to on the chat. They just have a page of copy and paste responses for all of us. When researching online, Ford provides more information than GM regarding build status, vehicle location, ETA, etc. I only mention Ford since I assume they are GM's main competitor.

Finally got an answer I was looking for. Manager from dealership called me and stated ETA for tomorrow. He confirmed Tahoe is sitting in a lot about 20 miles from dealership. I asked if the ETA is firm and he stated give an additional few days if it does not arrive tomorrow. I won't mind that much considering that I ordered this thing back in December of 2021

That sounds promising. Not to curb your enthusiasm though but mine has had a window sticker for the past month (after sitting at mid for a month) and still sitting there. I sure hope yours will be moving sooner. I always thought that having a WS meant the truck is in transit but mine has just been sitting there and dealer has been equally frustrated with lack of updates.

Yeah, hope I'm not counting my chickens before they hatch lol. My Tahoe also showed up on the dealer's site later today too. That sucks yours has sat for a month still after getting the window sticker. They seem to be clearing the backlog out though so hope you get some movement soon!
