Well yesterday morning the truck finally came in. The dealer was sending pics the moment it got there. I was able to speak to the owner who told me that he had never had this issue before and that Chevy would be contacting me soon in an effort make this transit nightmare more manageable. It was immediately taken in for PDI and accessories.

Once delivered I will post pics and a review of this situation. I was contact by GM Customer service via PM on this forum with some limited info over the last couple of days, but it was slow to come and what the dealer had already notified me of.

I heard from my dealer that my 2014 was shipped Oct 16th. Anyone have any experience with it being shipped to Ontario? How long should it
take? Its a crew cab so from what I gather its coming from Mexico?

How do know your build date?

 

It used to be on the inside of the driver door on one of the stickers, but mine isn't. I did find it in the paperwork I got at closing on a 2"4" slip of paper, related to the delivery paperwork I think.

How do know your build date?

You can go to gmc.com and click on the red flag half way up the right side to initiate a live chat with customer service. They are very helpful and informative. I got my build date last week, then today I found out mine was on the train and should cross the border by midnight tonight, headed to Birmingham, Alabama. My dealer is 100 miles south of there. I ordered my Denali 6.2 on Sept. 19th. It was actually built on Oct 18th and shipped on Oct. 26th. Of course I am fully retired and have more time to chase and investigate the process. Good luck with your order.

It has 9/13 in the door. I wonder if that indicates Sept. 13th or just Sept. of 2013?

That's what I figured. I'll try contacting Chevy and getting the exact date. On topic here, I actually found my truck using the vehicle locator on the Chevy site while it was still in transit to the dealer. It worked out great! The exact truck and options I wanted without a long build delay. Price and trade value were settled before it hit the lot and I had it 10 days after locating it.

      ‘25 Silverado purchase- back to dealership for bumper/radio issue

      By Atomicgrl · Posted

      The no sound problem is the audio amplifier. The audio amp has a heatsoak issue in some circuitry which causes it to miss the wakeup handhake. If it doesn't respond within a certain time parameter, then you get no sound. I brought it in and had the software update, but after further testing the tech made the call for a new audio amplifer. The software update I belive gives more time for the amp to respond, but if the amp is defective then you can still get no audio at times. After the update it went 12 days before no sound. After doing some research, apparently the fix is a new (updated) audio amplifer, the circuitry internally has been improved to better deal with heat. I had to wait 2 1/2 weeks because at the time, it was on backorder with no eta. Well the amp came in earlier this week. I had the amp and programming work done today. After picking it up I stopped at a few places, and whenever I started my truck, the audio was on instantly, so whatever they did it appears to work because it's never had sound that quickly......Hope this helps

      Make sure the latch mechanism is properly greased. Look at the catch for fresh marks/scratches. And see if it has moved a little, too.

      Thoughts on these wheels?

      By PBNB · Posted

      I have the 18" black mutilspoke wheels that came with my truck. I like them as they are very subdued and look good with the 295/70's    I am sure that the next set of wheels I get will be some after market all black wheels. Or maybe some AT4X wheels.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Interesting question which you partly answered in the word 'potentially'. I think that is going to be a 'point of reference' inquiry. What are the touchstones?    This will sound petty but it is the main source of end fighting in threads on this topic. Define a motors "Life". Think about the various arguments that have been entertained on these pages in that very argument.    I can only speak from my viewpoint. Engine "Life" in my world is defined by power cylinder integrity. For the majority of engines it is the bore/ring interface that quits first. Loss of seal. Oil consumption and loss of power. Most Pro motor builders would agree and there is a good deal of information on using "Leak Down" as a primary indicator of bore integrity. At home a compression test is more the thing. If we can agree on that then I think CC Jensen has done its homework and I'd find it valid.    Now by my own definition, Dizzy, wife's Ecotec 2.4 I-4 has been dead since about 80K miles. And yet we have logged over 200K miles more on it. "Life" and "Usefulness" are therefore independent.      I know a mature fella right now who has just hit 300K on a Mitsubishi 3A92 NA MPFI motor and has done compression test every 100K. It was 205 psi after break in and is now about 195 and still even. He uses shelf oil but good filters and adheres to a 3K mile OCI. He even do UOA's on each of them for the first 50K.      I also know a fleet mechanic with that same motor that gets 300 to 500 K out of them but the are oil using, wristpin sloppy, skirt slapping motors. He ran one with a piston pin so loose the piston was bouncing off the cylinder head for about 20K miles before he called TOD. Both of them claim success.
