Looks like a few items were move to the distribution list, but still basically the same.

If you were waiting for your order to be accepted before due to constraints, you are likely still going to be waiting.

Hoping they will pick mine up since I have no constraints on my order. Thanks for the update.

Look at the bright side - illuminated mirror emblem, 22" gloss black wheels and all weather floor mats were completely removed from the list! :console:

Do you happen to have access to the YUKON constraints that came out today? I assume that they are similar, but I can't quite match up all of my Yukon options with the Tahoe options so hoping someone has access to that... I just ordered Yukon SLT Premium Package last week with no other bells and whistles with hopes to avoid the constraint blackhole. I am sure I am in for the long haul, but any intel would be great.

Do you know if Yukon and Denali constraints will be the same? I just ordered a Denali with NHT and if the quantity to produce is the same, yeah going to be waiting a while as well :)

when did you place your order?
I ordered one over a month ago and that dealership still hasn’t called me to tell me I can’t get the rear media package. Went to a bigger dealership and orders one about 2 weeks ago. He told us it could be between 3-10 weeks. Should would be nice to get lucky and it soon. I

Where do you get this info from and how can I get it for the Yukon XL?

For reference, I have a Duramax Denali on order, with Premium Package and Air Suspension. Dealer just called me today that the Air Suspension and max trailering package (which is part of Premium) are on constraint. If I skip those two, then my Denali could go into production right now.

Well, more like it could go to production a month from now, but yes, this.

Right - I meant they can actually get it accepted right now, obviously actual production would be some time off but a least would be moving forward. Since I don’t want to give up on any of the options I’m going to be sitting in 1100 for the foreseeable future…

My dealer is either handicapped or doesn't want to share. I can never get any straight information from them. Any chance you could get it from yours?
My dealer doesn't share any information at all either. They are appalled that I don't trust in their abilities.

I had a heck of a time getting the details of my order from them as well. I finally talked them into sending to verify they input the choices correctly and of course they missed an option. It really is unreal sometimes.

we're in a "new world" with dealers shifting towards ordering and selling a vehicle in 3 months (if we're lucky) vs having the inventory to make a sale today. seems a lot of these dealers don't know how to handle the customer expectations with ordering

So true. It is crazy to me that they want to hide what they ordered for me though. That seems like information that I have the right to see. Better to correct at that time then have it arrive wrong. Then again they probably don't care because the next person that comes in will probably take it anyways.

Officially, you and I are not GM's "customer" yet. The order is produced and charged to the dealer code that placed the order. It is a cold calculated process that has never been friendly in any way shape or form. Customers were never this involved with the inner workings when an ordered unit took only 6 weeks to get.

Agree to an extent. Seems odd that a dealer isn’t allowed to move forward with an order that doesn’t have any current constraints with it. If a dealer can pre-sell a vehicle, you’d think they’d allow that order to move in line. Maybe it takes a few extra weeks or a month but there are probably quite a few people who have orders that are multiple months old that still haven’t been accepted for production, and it’s because of the allocations not constraints.

as far as the process three years ago, all I know is that I’d have to think about it a while to see if I can come up with a name of someone that had ordered a vehicle

This is what you want to avoid. We ordered a Summit White Z71 from our local dealer back in mid-November. Our order was allocated rather quickly and was built the week of 1/10. The salesman called last Monday to let me know that our Tahoe arrived but was Auburn Metallic instead of Summit White. He blamed the screwup on Chevrolet and claims the dealer put in the order correctly (which we don’t believe). He was also sure to mention that he had somebody else in line to buy it if we didn’t want it. They claim we are back to the top of the list but Z71 trim appears to be in short supply now. We’re pretty upset with the process at this point.

Family owned GM dealership for 33 years. Only ONCE did we have the factory mis paint an order and even then they got it half right when they two toned it instead of a solid color. I call B.S. on the dealership.
