There’s your answer. You have ordered something that is in constraint.
Therefore it’ll never be accepted by GM.
Caveat is it can be accepted if the dealership receives an allocation for that constraint
Saw somewhere else (on here?) that the Z71 trim has been removed from the constraint list - which doesn't help matters if your ordering dealer doesn't receive an allocation for a Tahoe... and even if they do, hopefully they use the allocation for your order
The same questions keep being brought up repeatedly - nothing wrong with that, but perhaps someone could create a post explaining codes, vinview, allocations, etc. (basically an FAQ) and the mods could sticky it?
Part of the problem, however, is that I don't know if any of us know with 100% certainty how this process works.

Right. But that’s not too common to see. I’m not sure how it works either with mutiple items on constraint. They may have 1 but not the other. Or if they can get an allocation for multiple per order..:

Honestly the best thing to do is get your order # and ask Linton23 at GM insider for updates.
I also had a Denali "package" ordered, but it was ordered 10/06/2021 - couldn't get GM to accept the order b/c there were too many elements in the package that they were NOT doing (adaptive air ride suspension, max trailering package, advanced technology package), so I had to remove those items in order to FINALLY get GM to accept my order. They FINALLY did on 03/06/2022. Vehicle was built and is in-transit (Code 4300). Have you had this convo with your salesman?
Basics of it would be:
- Dealer has to have an allocation for your vehicle (ie tahoe)
- If the dealer gets an allocation for a Tahoe...then you have to hope you are next in line so the dealer can use the allocation on your order (I know this sounds basic - but if you're 47th in line for a Tahoe, the two allocations the dealer received only means you are now 45th)
- They can submit the order as long as nothing associated with the order is constrained -could be anything from trim (Z71, RST, High Country, etc) to engine, specific packages, specific standalone options to interior/exterior color
- If something on your order is constrained, the order can still be submitted for acceptance if the dealer also receives an allocation for said constraint
- If the dealer receives an allocation for a Tahoe but RST trim is on constraint and they didn't receive an allocation for RST, then the order can't be submitted/accepted
- Of course if the dealer is proactive, they hopefully contact "you" as the next in line and ask if you want to modify the order for it to be accepted...say change it to a Z71

This is my understanding as well. Dealer had confirmed this as well, that nothing is on stop order (unavailable), just constrained to limited production. This appears to be what is driving my order to sit for so long. He offered to remove max trailering to possibly get it accepted, but I believe that would require removing the whole off-road package which is not something I want to remove.
If this continues to stagnate, I may try to pop into the dealer and sit down with the ordering manager in an attempt to get a clearer picture on where I’m at in their allocation queue and map through the specifics of the constraints.

I thought allocations are specified to the trim level…meaning they don’t even get to choose what trim is in their allocation. So if they’re allocated an RST and an LT for example….anyone who has a High Country
Or Z71 are SOL
That’s my question as well. Salesman does not seem to know much beyond stating that they “have allocation.” Seems like I need to talk to their ordering manager to learn more specifics about what trim-specific allocation they ha e and where I’m at in their queue.
The screenshot below from a couple months ago paints a little clearer picture - mainly because it also shows the allocation of the constraints...does leave out the aspect of the dealer being allocated a Yukon and they being able to submit the order as an SLE
I wouldn't think GM would be allocating Tahoes/Yukons based "only" on the constraint list, I'd think they would also be allocating Tahoes/Yukons in general meaning that the dealer, if allocated a Tahoe, then they could submit the order as an LS or whatever trim that isn't on constraint
who knows...
I couldn’t order mine with the ultimate/reserve or any “package” because if the package included something they aren’t doing now, GM wouldn’t accept it. My salesman literally built a brand new order, included everything I wanted from my original ultimate order but removed the items we knew they wouldn’t build.
Just got another update on mine: Status 4300, but they wouldn't share the VIN. My sales person is not very technologically savvy, so he wasn't able to find my VIN when we chatted last week.

I've heard numerous people say on here that order a Tahoe RST (as an example) to be told by their dealer they do not have an upcoming allocation for that trim but they do have an allocation to a High Country if they're willing to switch. Otherwise - they'll have to wait out the RST order.
That's why I came to that conclusion.
Unless - the dealer is just saying that to sell the more expensive trim. Which wouldn't shock me either...since these are car salesmen at the end of the day

I think GM will allot the higher trims first then the "leftovers" if parts are available. More profit in the higher trims all around. Just my observation.
I think that has been shown with the latest constraint on ventilated seats. Due to shortage of modules AND blower motors, the ventilated seats will be a later retrofit, but that constraint doesn't apply to the Denali trim.
Mine is due in this week or next (ordered Oct 2021) and I'm very curious to see if it will be equipped with the ventilated seats...
Mine was built on 04/12 and delivered to Midlothian Strg, Tx - no updates since...
posted on another thread as well...ours had an initial TPW of 4/11 (basic Z71 with luxury package and buckets)...early March the TPW moved up to 3/28, built 3/28, delivered to Midlothian on 3/30 and delivered to the dealer 4/21...we are now driving it and the salesman said it was still at 4300
