LOL at bashing a guy on giving GM a measly $100K for a Cadillac, when the OP has "given" GM over $150K for two 2015 Denalis.....can't make this shit up.

I know. Then the GM-life dude came back with the Denali is just a crappy Tahoe with lipstick, doesn't even compare with the refinement of the Slade. LMAO!

Ok. Got the call this morning. They figured out the tailgate. No biggie.

The vehicle was still programmed to "Transport Mode" when it was loaded at the rail yard. The dealer was supposed to place it back into "Client Mode" which brings all of the convenience features back online. It was supposed to be done when it was first unloaded at the dealership but got missed. Everything is functional.

I asked them when they thought it would be ready to pick up as tomorrow would be the earliest I could make it over there. They told me that it was already going over to HD Car Care per my request and getting the proper detailing; for my inconvenience.

....well, so that ended nicely.

The end cost was GM Employee pricing, $700 paint correction detailing thrown in, and a $500 Visa gift card (We ordered 5 trucks together so got a kind of fleet discount).

I'll report back once I actually pick it up in the next day or so.

I'm glad they figured it out, and I learned something! I suppose it makes sense that they have a transportation mode but I hadn't really thought about it.

Make sure to put up some pictures of the beautiful beast tomorrow!

You guys are funny.

Unless the dealer subs to professional detailer (99% don't) the first thing I tell every dealer before taking delivery of a new vehicle is to make sure they don't wash it. I don't care if they hand wash all their vehicles, I do not trust them not to *** up my paint before it ever gets to me. I've seen too many vehicles, some a lot more expensive than a GM suv, delivered with swirl marks all over the place form the dealer wash.

I thought I was the only one. My dealer looked at me like I was crazy when I told them not to wash the Yukon. It was NASTY too.

I would think that would have been an immediate thought.... not sure the competence level of your dealer.

No kidding right? I was only there for 30 min total so not sure how and when they figured it out. I didn't have time to wait around. Probably tomorrow it'll be done.

I too told the dealer to not wash my Tahoe but this is a fairly usual request for my dealer when someone orders a vehicle. Although I did follow up multiple times to make sure it didn't get washed I was happy to see on my paperwork as well as a note attached to my key fob it said "do not wash vehicle".

As for the transport mode, my dealer let me get in my Tahoe right as it showed up. It was just me and initially I was pissed because my key fob didn't do anything. I actually had to manually unlock the vehicle, but when inside there was a message on the DIC that said "transport mode enabled". Like you said the liftgate did not work nor did power anything for that matter.
