New Truck Order Tracking


Recommended Posts

Posted

The first update I got was on 3/9/11, "Just fixing some things, please be patient" It also says status 6000, delivered to customer or dealer has completed paperwork. Must be referring to the paperwork. Anyway, is it normal to go three days without any update or change of status? The order number is PKWK2H

 

Thanks,

Johnny

Mine went to shipped status this moring, dated shipped 3-10 wich was yesterday, but I don't know if it went by rail or truck?

Truck could mean it could arrive today, but rail I would expect maybe a week from now. How do I determine which way it shipped?

 

I saw several post reffering to tracking rail cars, but I did not see where they found the rail car number or where they, even saw thatit was rail vs truck?

Update, mine must have went via truck from plant to dealer, got the call this afternoon, that it is in and ready to pickup tonight.

 

Order tracking has been an awesome service. Thanks again.

On 3/9/11, I entered my order number into the system and got a status report of 6000 on 2/28/2011 with the explanation that they were fixing some things, please be patient. It also read that 6000 was delivered to customer or dealer completed paperwork. In my case, that was the date I submitted the paperwork. Now, it still is status 6000 but no longer indicates "fixing some things, please be patient". Is it dead in the water? Did it fall of the assembly line? I don't know, Any ideas? The order number is PKWK2H, and it is a GMC. I ordered the truck on 1/28/2011.

 

Thanks,

Johnny

Johnny, once it goes to 5000 or 6000 it no longer shows up on the export for the manual updates and since he is not the selling dealer he will only see the same thing a 6000 status. But there is not any logistics data for a GMC available to us anyway so we would have stopped at 3800 anyway....Sorry bout that...Larry

breaking news. Colorado trucks on order this will have an effect on your timeline.

– Thu Mar 17, 4:51 pm ET

CHICAGO (AFP) – A shortage of car parts from disaster-struck Japan has forced General Motors to temporarily shutter one of its factories in the United States, the firm said Thursday.

 

Production at an assembly plant in the southern state of Louisiana will halt for one week "due to a parts shortage resulting from the crisis in Japan," the Detroit, Michigan-based company said.

 

The 30-year old Shreveport factory employs 923 workers, producing the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon vehicles.

 

Before the announcement, experts had expressed fears that damage and blackouts in quake-hit areas of Japan could cause parts shortage around the world.

 

While Japan produces a vast range of cars each year, Japanese manufacturers are also a vital cog in the supply chain for US and European automakers.

 

"Like all global automakers, we will continue to follow the events in Japan closely to determine the business impact," GM said.

 

"We will resume production at Shreveport as soon as possible," it said.

 

"At all other plants in North America, we continue to run normal operations."

Wow, my truck is here in my city sitting on a rail car, nobody can touch it, some kind of labor dispute between the railway and GM, nice.

 

 

The wait after my truck was built until it shipped was the hardest part... then it took 5 days to get from railyard to dealer..

(Washington, D.C.) – Today, Allied System Holdings agreed to withdraw its attempt to unilaterally cut the wages of more than 2,500 Teamster carhaul drivers, averting a strike that would have impacted the delivery of vehicles throughout the country. The wage cuts would have been in violation of the Teamsters National Carhaul Agreement.

 

The Teamsters National Automobile Transporters Industry Negotiating Committee (TNATINC), which bargains on behalf of the carhaulers, was able to reach a resolution with Allied after a series of meetings with the company since it announced the cuts on March 9.

 

“I am proud of our members at Allied who stood strong in solidarity through this difficult process,” said James P. Hoffa, Teamsters General President and Chairman of TNATINC. “Our members have sacrificed so much the past three years to help save this company. Allied knew that they would not stand down. Our members will now receive the proper payment under their existing contract.”

 

In December 2007, Teamsters at Allied approved a plan to help save Allied, which included 15 percent wage cuts that were in effect for about two and a half years. The concessions were set to expire last May, but Allied balked and wanted the concessions to continue. However, a federal bankruptcy judge rejected the company’s efforts and the company finally agreed to pay an additional 20 percent as it was required to do under the original plan, retroactive to May 30, 2010.

 

Allied is contractually bound by the agreement to pay the industry-negotiated rate. Cassen’s and Jack Cooper, carhaul companies that are also covered by the Teamsters National Carhaul Agreement, are currently paying the established rate.

 

“Our members were prepared to go out on strike to ensure that Allied honored the contract,” said Fred Zuckerman, Co-Chairman of the Committee and Director of the Teamsters Carhaul Division. “I am relieved that Allied decided to do the right thing and today our members will be where they want to be – on their trucks, doing their job.”

 

System-wide, 58 Teamster Locals represent the 2,500 Allied carhaulers throughout the U.S. and Canada and hauls cars for General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda, Nissan and Volkswagen.

 

Founded in 1903, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters represents 1.4 million hardworking men and women throughout the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. For more information, please visit www.Teamster.org.

lol, yea, but my truck is just down the street, if I wasn't so impatient it would be funny.

The 5 days mine sat in the railyard was less than 10 miles from our home, the dealer is 80 miles away...

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
