Call GM. Filed a complaint. The dealership also inquired with GM. GM approved and sent dealership a check for the price increase.

 

Hey Guy, can you let me know the process you took for this?  I am currently in the same boat where my dealer is telling me I owe more because of the msrp increase.  I have not took possession of it yet, so hopefully can get it figured out before I do!

If you put a deposit down on a truck, the price is set. Tell your dealer they are lying and threaten to call GM corporate to complain and I’m sure they will change their tune quick. GM sent emails out to all customers with a reservation and specifically told them their price is set

Medic, I don’t think it’s the dealer. They are showing the new msrp for the truck from GM, and not the original msrp that was quoted.  I mentioned that to the salesman and he is going to verify as well, but I don’t want to wait/count on him.

To me that’s still effed up to change the price on a buyer when they already put a deposit down and a price listed on the build sheet…I wouldn’t normally worry about it, but it’s $4k higher!

The last sentence says to lock in your MSRP. Legally when you put a deposit down on a vehicle you enter a binding contract say I will put this money down to get this product. Any changes have to be agreed upon by both parties.

Your price is locked the day you ordered the vehicle from your dealer. Not the day you put the $100 deposit down from the GMC reservation website. 
 

Your dealer should have given you a receipt the day you ordered it that shows the price and everything you ordered. Make sure the date on that receipt is before the price increase took place.

Ok, so I get everything y’all are saying, but since the dealer doesn’t know how to do that *cough *, how do I go through GM to get it changed?

This is great information on the pricing. While I would have paid the increase since I am already so far down this road, it is good to know I am locked in at my order price back in January. Not my fault GM is taking forever to ship my produced order.

    • 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.
    • It is 4wd. shop told me it is the slip yoke. But not sure.
    • No, I did not tune out vvt. From what I read it should still be able to run without it, it'll just lose some torque/power.    I can see how that would make it not run correctly, but why would that cause the faulty MAF readings?   EDIT: I just ran a quick test and checked, and as I expected, the computer sees that the VVT cam phaser solenoid is not present, and throws a code for it, and does not try to change the cam angle at all. Commanded position just remains at zero, 100% of the time. This makes me think that the VVT is most likely not the cause of the problem though if anyone has a different/better explanation, I'm all ears.   UPDATE: I was able to find that my scan tool does indeed support reading the frequency (hz) off of the MAF (I thought it wasn't supported but turns out I just didn't know where to look for it). I noticed that regardless of engine state it always however this Is not what I observed with my multimeter. Like I said before, the MAF seems to put out a normal signal during cranking and then the signal drops to a very erratic reading once the engine is running. It seems from what my scan tool is telling me that the ECM is not recognizing this at all, and just reads 0 Hz 100% of the time. This pushes me towards the the PCM itself is faulty. I I have the PCM out of the 2007 donor vehicle, which I may try to connect and program (it's only ~50 bucks to get the software for a one-time programming)
    • Did you tune out the VVT?  07-09 they did not have VVT.  2010-2013 they did.      If you haven't tuned it, its trying to adjust cam timing.
