Just picked up my new Sierra Denali Diesel yesterday. Ordered beginning of February, built March 4, under quality hold for a month and a half while the factory was closed. Finally delivered to the dealer and I picked it up last night.

 

Back to the service dept with 24 miles with P026A CEL.

 

 

Did they do anything to fix this? Have you had any return issues?

 

I have the same code on my 2020 Silverado RST Diesel 4x4 Z71

 

I cleared it once but it popped back on within a week. I'm at 645 miles. I got about 200 miles between time when the code showed back up.

Hello!

My local dealer and I placed an order on 6/19 for a Double Cab, RST, 6.2 w/Leather.

As of today 6/29 the order has yet to be picked up by GM due to a constraint on the 6.2 engine we’re told.

My salesmen can’t give me much information at this point. 
I’m just looking for some information from some of you who have gone through the ordering process recently if I should plan on seeing this truck anytime soon.
Thanks in advance..

I just got word that my order is at event code 4B00. :thumbs:t

Now my truck is at status code 4200!

 

Does anyone know if there is a way to get an ETA on when the truck will show up at the dealer?

My dealer placed the order for my truck mid June. It isn't scheduled for production until the week of 9/1, so I know there is at least a 60-90 day delay on it at the moment. I also have the 6.2. Maybe that is part of the delay.

 

Not sure if there is any truth to it, but my dealer also told me that GM doesn't plan on rolling the 2021 releases until mid-late Nov 2020 at the earliest. Due to the UAW strike and COVID, they are months behind schedule. 

 

My buddy's father in law had a Silverado 2500 on order since mid Feb and has yet to confirm a delivery date. 

 

Crazy times...

According to this Donlen link (Updated 6/1/20) things seem to be on track.

According to this one though (updated 6/22/20) production across the board seems to be delayed pretty bad. 

Specifically the Silverado / Sierra line have a ton of delays and a 16 week lead time.

Anyone read this differently or have any info that helps make more sense of these timelines? I’m new to the whole GM build process but the way I read the info in the last link doesn’t seem promising.

How do I get an event code for my truck? Through the Chevy chat I was told it left Mexico via ship last Tuesday. Headed towards south Florida. 
 

how do I get an event code to know where it’s at next? Or if it arrived at the port

Chevy chat is your best way. Your sales representative can check for you also. Your vehicle is at event code 4200 in transit. Your next update will be event code 4800. When the boat arrives in port and your vehicle is unloaded. Mine has been sitting in a port about a 140 miles south of me for 2 weeks as of today. Just waiting for the car carrier company to pick it up along with a lot of other cars. My salesman did call the car carrier company up. And they yelled and cursed at him and promptly hung up. So. He’s hoping maybe within 2 weeks?? Not bad for being ordered in February.

Dang since Feb!!! I don’t have that kind of patience lol. 
 

ok awesome I’ll contact the chat. Hopefully mine doesn’t sit at the port that long. Port is 10 mins away from me. I’ll pick that thing up myself lol!

 

Also cannot get an event code from the chat. Person said due to the "current market condition" they cannot provide an event code. ??

I just got my event code of 4200 from chat. I left the plant in Silao Mexico on 4 July by rail. I assume that they come into the US to a distribution center somewhere?

I was able to connect my onstar. Clicked on locate my vehicle and got an exact location. Not even my dealer has any idea where it’s at.

Maybe you can do the same

Wow... that’s pretty wild that you can actually do that. Lol.

Did you need the VIN to plug into OnStar?

    • What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.
    • People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.    
    • Glad you had success with it. I did as well, but about 5-6 months later it returned. Tried again, same result. This was after the dealer made several attempts and never even got it to slow down.
