Beyond frustrated.... ordered 19 Chev Silverado Custom Trail Boss 13 weeks ago.  I've had to reach out to the dealership multiple times, finally was told that it is out of production and bayed in Fort Wayne as of 5/14/19.  It has been assigned a VIN. Any feel for delivery time frame, northern Wisconsin?  The whole thing seems ridiculous, considering was given a 6 week time frame in late February. Looking for a sanity check. 

 

There are dozens of these on dealer lots marked down $4-7k right now... I can't figure out why anyone would order one. I know another guy who has been waiting 3 months... for a Shadow Grey Crew Can Custom... there's like 5 on dealer lots within a 20 mile range

 

The custom has a handful of option packages/items and a handful of colours. You could even get one transfered from another dealer. Makes no sense to order a run of the mill truck other than to say you custom ordered it... 

 

3 dealers around me are offering huge discounts on their trucks on the lot. Shop around. No point waiting for something thats  in stock

I'm looking for a little help here. Approximately 3 weeks ago I placed an order with my dealer for a '19 1500 AT4 Dbl cab. I know it's late in the model year for orders, but I wanted the 6.2 with the performance off road pkg, as well as, I wanted it in black. The combination has been impossible to find off the lot anywhere near me. Anyways what I was wondering is if any of you guys could tell me what your experience was for the time line when ordering and what to expect. Like I said it's been 3 weeks, according to my salesman the order hasn't been "picked up" by GM yet. So what I assume that to mean is it hasn't been given a build date yet. Just wondering about how long it takes to get a build date ect. The sales guy told me it can take 4-6 weeks but he also kinda said they my never build it due to constraints and what not, maybe that was a ploy to make sure I would do a "sold order" deal with them (which I had no problem doing) but idk. He implied it would be more likely to be picked up if it was a sold order. Any info you guys can provide would be awesome. Im kinda outa my league on this one, never ordered a vehicle before, but I figured if I'm spending 70k just as well get exactly what I want.

If your dealer isn't a big Chevy or GMC dealer, then change your dealer if GM won't pick up your order by next week. You can ask the dealer to give you the event code. You can also chat with GM to get more accurate information. By having your event code, you can find the stats of your order. 

If everything goes smoothly, it takes almost 2 to 2.5 months to get your truck from the time putting your order.

It’s been 9 1/2 weeks for me so far. The dealer told me that it is still in the process of being shipped and being prepared to be shipped to the dealership. Hopefully not too much longer... Good luck everyone...

I received word from my dealer just this past week that the order has been bayed and waiting on transportation. From anyone's personal experience, how much longer can I expect for the truck to get to the dealership? I placed my order on May 2nd. Based off what I've read, I'm guessing I am still weeks away.

 

Any other ways to check the vehicle status? My apologies if this has already been covered earlier in this thread.

I was given a 10 week delivery forecast. The 20th of June it will be 10 weeks.

GMC Canada has a Facebook site and when I PM’d them my order number, they were able to give me a location status. I’m sure the US has that as well. Give it a try!

I've got that anxious feeling, as well.  I compare it to being a kid and waiting on Christmas morning and summer vacation all mixed into one.  Out of curiosity, who are you going to finance with?  I think I am going to omit GM Financial and go with a local credit union

Ordered (pluncked down my deposit) my 2019 LTZ CC (everything but Z71) . Was told 6-8 weeks but already mentioned that there may be a delay for the bed liner spraying? Late production orders seem to be more variable. We'll see when the order is actually placed. Wish me luck, hoping for before Labor Day.

You don’t have to leave a deposit. Many dealerships will try to do this. Just tell them no and go to another. I ordered a $68,000 truck and deposit wasn’t even mentioned.

I'm not questioning/ doubting you, rather asking out of my own ignorance, but if you don't give them a deposit, is there a risk of them selling your truck to someone else once it's built and delivered?

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
