Mine is low level. It’s a custom crew cab gasser. 

I think the high-end trim levels get built first, I was told they have a higher profit margin.

Oh mine was built in January, then thrown into the pile of missing parts

I have no idea what to believe, mine was built mid November. About as high level as possible, it's still MIA.

I ordered a GMC 2500 At4 6.6 liter gas engine on April 4th 2022. After I got the order number I found out how to get on gmcs website to check on production with the virtual assistant on 4/10. That day I found out my vehicle was already produced however it is now 4/20 and i still do not have a vin number so that my dealership can set up tracking. does anyone know how long it usually takes a finished truck to get its vin number???

I am curious if anyone has received their truck from the Flint plant and how long it took from build date to delivery? Mine was ordered March 2021 and Built November 2021 as a complete build and is in transit lost status. It is going on almost 6 months since it was built and has yet to arrive at my dealer. Just wondering what others experiences are. I live close to Flint and see trucks moving on haulers all day but no luck on mine yet getting to my dealer.

I am almost exactly in the same boat.  Mine was ordered in June last year, built in November and is "still sitting there."

Agreed and it seems that nobody has an answer as to where the vehicles are and when they will be delivered

Just when I think I have the "they're only building high end, or theyre only building WT's".  My ordering dealer has a 1-WT, 7-Customs, 1-LT, and 2-High Countrys in transit currently.  My LT, Z71 Sport order is yet to picked up by Chevy.  Deposit and order was made in January.  It does seem in Western PA anyway, that local-ish dealers are showing more in-transit 2500's.  Who knows when they'll arrive, but thats what im seeing.

This is why I am curious on delivery ETA and what people are experiencing, mine has been stuck in transit status for months going to a dealer less than 20 miles from the plant

My ordering dealer currently shows 43 2500HD in transit.  They have 3 trucks on their lot, all sold.  I think the "transit" is just a made up magical order.  My truck has been in transit four times to the dealer..and when checking the next day at their website, is gone.  

Maybe soon.  Maybe one day.  Maybe.

I posted this on the 2019 thread but should have done it here:

 

Is there a way to find out the name of the delivery company that holds the contract to transport my truck from Flint to the dealer?

Posted

I found this on another forum:

http://k0jdd.netlogger.org/VehicleStatus.php

For my VIN, it shows a build date of Feb 22nd, Bayed on March 18th and status is currently "on hold"

I believe the on-hold status is due to the Stop-sell order for the Duramax motors.

GM chat says it's "In transit" but dealer can't offer anything.

My weekly email update on Tuesday said "I was advised by our Order Team that your vehicle is still in Flint MI undergoing quality inspection"

 

Another truck in no-man's land.

I ordered a Silverado 2500HD LT with Midnight Package, All Star, CP II, Leather, Z-71 packages, and several other options. It hadn't been picked up by GM yet. I find out, this morning, midnight edition with Z-71 is now unavailable, along with several options. Base price also went up a thou again (increased twice in a month for $2K total). Comparing my previous build to new build, there's 2 less packages, $500 less in options, for approx $4,000 less in options and packages. But, now the total NET price is a thousand more on the build sheet than before (a $5K swing)! WTH is going on with GM??

Well, it looks this morning that everything but molded splash guards are back on the build site. My confidence in GM is at a new hi! 😏

Would be interested to know if anyone who ordered after February has had their trucks go into the "parking lots of forgotten".

    • If everything checks out at the MAF, then the MAF is BAD, new or not.   You don't need a signal generator to troubleshoot this. PCM needs ALL powers and ALL grounds able to light a halogen headlight bulb - if it can light the bulb bright, then the wiring is good enough to run the PCM.   Best thing you can do for yourself is spend some time here: scannerdanner.com - Check out all his YouTube videos on similar issues. If you decide to subscribe it's the best bang-for-buck ratio in the automotive world, hands-down. He's got TONS of free vids on YouTube, too.
    • Yes, I used my multimeter to probe all of the wires at the MAF, both with the sensor connected, sensor disconnected, key on engine off, key on engine running, etc etc etc. I probed all of the wires again at the PCM, at the connectors, etc. All voltages are what they should be according to the service manual/wiring diagrams. All grounds are good, less than 20 millivolts from the battery negative under load. Both at the connector of the MAF, at the PCM connector etc.      I know this throws a pretty big wrench into things, but this truck was acting up before the swap. I don't have very much information, if any on what was causing it, but if you cleared all of the dtcs it would do the same thing where it would crank, fire, then die. And it would do the same thing a dozen or so times, and eventually it would start and run, but the difference is that it would run and actually be drivable. Whereas now if you can drive it at all, it goes into reduced power mode almost immediately, and even then it's not running correctly. When you come to a stop at a light it stumbles down to for 500 RPM before catching itself and returning to the smooth idle. And if you go more than about 50% throttle then it immediately goes back to doing the misfire thing.    Like I said, I know that throws a wrench into things, and unfortunately I was not able to pull any data or anything like that before I did this work, so I don't have much to go on.    I'm trying to not fixate on one particular thing as the cause of the problem, but it seems like all avenues are pointing me towards the PCM. Like I said I have tested the wiring extensively (see above), and during cranking the sensor does produce seemingly legitimate values at least according to my multimeter, but as soon as the engine fires those values quickly descend into gibberish. I've tried it with multiple different known working sensors, I have done literally every test I can think of multiple times on the wiring (probing the signals, probing the pins with the sensors unplugged, probing the pins at the PCM, voltage drop, voltage drop under load, continuity, ohms, and double-checking everything against the wiring diagrams/ proper values in the service data.)    Another thing that pushes me towards a possible PCM failure is, I have noticed in troubleshooting a little bit taking a break and coming back, that when I leave the truck to sit for a while and cool off, it starts and runs smoothly when I first start it up. However once it warms up. It starts having problems. For example, when I went out to the truck this morning after it had been sitting overnight, I was actually able to drive it down the block. And then once I got on the throttle a Little bit after going about a thousand ft, it started misfiring again. I pulled it back into the driveway, shut it down, and started it back up. It idled smoothly. As soon as I touched the throttle it did the misfire thing again. From then on as soon as I started it it would misfire. I shut the truck off and went to go get a coffee and do a bit more research. When I came back out I started the truck up and it immediately went into the smooth idle. After a couple of minutes of playing around with it, it would not idle smoothly anymore. Let it sit a couple of hours, rinse and repeat. This makes me think with temperature change something is going wrong inside the PCM. I have the PCM out of the 2007 donor vehicle and I'm thinking of getting a one-day subscription to the ACDelco programming service to try and program that and see if it helps.   Like I said, I'm really trying to not fixate myself on one potential cause, but it seems everything is pointing me towards PCM failure. I would really like to try to confirm that, but unfortunately I don't have an oscilloscope or a signal generator to do the GM service procedure where you feed 5 khz into the signal pin. 
    • Ahh, sorry about that - I got some bad info. Newdude is correct. That's what I get for working 13 hours straight ... on my "vacation", lol.   Should've checked the files I had instead of the internet.   Anyway ... this is GREAT news, since this would've been an absolute friggin nightmare to get working.   I don't think the lack of VVT is causing this - you've got another issue. Wiring, I'm betting.   I'm telling you right now, your computer isn't bad. If it worked before the swap, it's working now. You need to do some more (better) diagnostics and figure out exactly what you're missing. Did you test every wire directly at the MAF? Have 5V reference? Ground? If you're reading ZERO g/s, your Hz isn't much use - it's going to be the wrong value anyway. The MAF is not working, and you need to find out WHY.   I got this off the net, so VERIFY first: Pin A: Black (BLK) wire, Circuit 552, serves as the Sensor Return (Ground).  Pin B: Tan (TAN) wire, Circuit 472, carries the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) signal.  Pin C: Yellow (YEL) wire, Circuit 492, is the primary MAF Sensor Signal output to the PCM. Pin D: Pink (PNK) wire, Circuit 339 or 539, provides Ignition 1 Voltage (Power).  Pin E: Tan/Black wire, Circuit 552 or similar, often associated with the Intake Air Temperature ground or signal return.  Global-A list: https://postimg.cc/KKJnQC85    
    • Correct....the end user can't reach to Realtruck directly like they can if they purchase a Bak, Undercover, etc...  It has to go through a dealer.
