I just got a email from my dealer. The difference between Jan 31 order date price and WS is +$2025 . A rebate check will come sometime after the sale is final. I'll come up with the 2K to keep the payment down and deposit it back to myself.

Mine showed the new price. I talked to the Sales Manager and they gave me a credit for the difference.

Bringing this back...for those of you that were able to take advantage of price protection, how exactly did that work? Did you pay the increased price at time of delivery and then GM sent you a check some time later?

My dealer seems like he knows nothing about how this works but I know some of you guys have experienced it..

When the Tahoe arrived and I went to the dealership to pay for it, the salesman mentioned that the price had gone up, but they were discounting it to the price quoted when I ordered. I didn't have to do anything.

I expect that each dealership treats it how they want to, and some will do their best to not honor it, if they get to keep the difference.

Wow, that is a generous dealer. I suspect most dealers would not just eat the cost like that....

I ordered in February and sticker increased by $2,300. Dealer worked with me and kept at original order price and stated that they would work with GM to get the difference back.

This is the same thing that happened to me. Price went up a little. Dealer matched off of the workbench price. They also honored the package discounts that could not be added because it was a workbench order. You just have to keep your eyes open. Don’t let the finance guy quick sell you.

I ordered a Tahoe 12/31 and took delivery 4/27. Sticker price went up $625. Didn’t think anything of it because I was just happy to take delivery. Fast forward to this past Wednesday, 7/27, and I get a phone call from the dealer that they just received a price protection payment from Chevy and they are sending me a $625 check. Wasn’t expecting it so this is a nice little bonus on top of getting a great vehicle.

That's about how much ours went up as well, timeline very similar (ordered in Jan - took delivery in Apr) doubt we'll see a check though.

It's real easy to say that GM has price protection, but from a few articles I've read on it, it's not automatic and the dealer has to apply for it. With that said, the majority of dealers I've dealt with seem as if they aren't as thorough on the admin duties or they act like they aren't even aware of some of these policies.

Wow some of you guys have some great dealers. I'm quite surprised. This whole price protection thing still seems a little fuzzy to me as far as what steps you have to take (other than having a "Retail Sold SRE" order). I'm curious how many of these dealers are eating the cost themselves and how many actually get re-reimbursed by GM.

Just a update. I received my price protection check in the mail yesterday. Mind you it wasn't for the MSRP difference as I can get FF discount.
