Ok has been over one month from when I contract the dealer and thy provide me with the info that my truck has been produced and they give me my vin. Number, I am assuming that probably few weeks b4 I contact them the truck was done, I’m around 9 hrs away from the plant where the truck was built, and still just sitting there no delivery date, is it possible that the truck was built but they waiting on chips to complete it? Or this is normal to take this long to get delivered?

Possibly.  Could be one of the 100K that made the news that are assembled but waiting for parts.  

 

The other issue right now is trucking.  Cassens and Jack Cooper run most, if not all the auto industry and they are short on drivers, so there has been transportation delays.  Lots of independents are being hired it seems now, the last two deliveries we got of any new vehicles weren't from either Cassens or JC, they were indie drivers.  One even roof-to-bridged a brand new Tahoe Premier!

Drivers are a huge issue. Trying to find them is a nightmare. My wife is a Merchandiser for a huge company and she has issues everyday trying to find drivers for her routes for the company. 
We as a country have to stop paying people to stay home and get them out into jobs!!!!  
 

Hopefully @FJB you get some information on your truck soon so you can enjoy it. 👍

this is what gm chat says 

Congratulations! Your vehicle has been produced. It is important to know that shipping   arrangements will take place next and your selling dealer is the best source for additional detail on that process.

 

and this is what my dealer told me 

Your truck has been built and is now "in transit". GM does not show any type of ETA as of yet.

Hope this helps...

Have a great day!

My 2019 (before Covid and this supply chain mess) had that status for about a month. My dealer finally was able to figure out it was sitting on a rail car 90 miles away. The day the dealer decided he would figure out with GM how he could just go get it and drive it the 90 miles himself he finally got notification it would be at the dealership a couple of days later. And it was

Now this is why they say 

GM is aware of the delays in shipping and is working with Logistics, our plants, and Carriers to get the orders shipped as quickly as possible. There are many reasons for delays, including but not limited to plant shutdowns and parts delays/shortage. At this time, this is the best information we can provide you with.

That’s just one of their many copy and paste soulutions they provide when you use the gm chat. I’ve gotten that one and more so many times now. At this point I’m just going to wait and let it show up when it gets here.

 

2022 3.0 dynamic blue AT4 has been built since 5/31/22 and is sitting at event code 4200 since that week. I got a call from gm resolution center yesterday and they read me another copy paste response.

 

But I have a gm quality control employee  in contact with the Silao plant quality control and my order is being looked into.

How do you find out what stage code your truck is in?

Through the gmc chat I asked for an event code a few times and I was provided with one. 4200 is technically shipped but as we all know it hasn’t been shipped which confuses the crap out of me. You have to go through 5 customer service representatives to get one good one who provides useful information. 
 

min the gmc chat just ask for an agent and then ask for an event code and give them your order number. 
 

one agent even gave me the VIN for my truck before my dealer even did.

      Tonneau cover and rack combo

      I found a setup that lets me open the cover partway with racks installed, using side-rail-mounted systems for easy access.

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Typically its said and I agree so far that the engine oil drain plug oring is not required to be changed out unless you see some damage happening to the oring as apparently the oring lasts well. The dealer I have been getting a few parts from never even stocked the oring but instead stocked the whole drain plug that comes with a new oring which for the dealer is easier because they just throw in a new drain plug if there was any question about damage on it as well and charge the customer accordingly but again only if it is needed.    Also a hint about the drain plug oring to help it last vs a risk of causing damage to it, after its been removed and wiped off or washed off ( that is a whole other topic about some solvents damaging orings because some solvent types do ) to make sure to relube the oring with a bit of new oil so that it won't "grip" on the sealing surface of the pan and needlessly stress out the oring. Its no different than putting some oil on the sealing ring of the engine oil filter. So I just grabbed a new drain plug to have on hand although more recently bought just the oring as well but as its special it costs half the price of the drain plug ... !   Since you mentioned the hate to be empty handed theme, I am not sure what you have in the way of filter removal tools as I like using the exact sized for the filter steel 1" wide band with side to side swivel handle filter removal tool, and it can be used to snug up the filter without risk of damaging a filter as well ( its probably a lisle brand I have ). The drain plug hex size is 15mm and I always like using a 6 point socket if I have a choice and with this truck I've been using just a 3/8 ratchet that has a fairly long handle. Do you have a funnel that will work to pour oil in as that is definitely the short coming bastard part about the design with that fill port on the valve cover on such an angle that no normal funnel will even work. There are adapters and things on the market that will set into or screw into that fill port, I didn't want to deal with US shipping as that is all I was seeing at the time so caved and bought a Lisle brand multi vehicle fit adapter funnel kit and it really works well but there are much less expensive adapters out there that work in conjunction with an off the shelf funnel that would do the job also. Now that I have it, I like how it works and works so slick with the shape of the Amsoil 1 quart containers I have now switched over to. Whatever you do, have a funnel system of some sort as you will be swearing if you dropped the oil and then realize you have nothing to properly pour new oil in without spilling it all over the engine !.     Other comments, quite a bit of oil flows out down the filter when its cracked loose due to the housing above the filter so let it dribble down the filter until it slacks off flow and then remove the filter to create less possible mess. It seems these engines can sit for quite a while and drip and if you have time let it sit there and drip out of the engine as much as it wants. Also a good time to grease the 9 zerks on the front end, that's my typical practice anyway to grease the suspension and steering each time I change the oil. And remember to reset the oil change minder ( not something I am used to doing with older vehicles and equipment ).

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Aimatdeer · Posted

      I really did not measure what came out. I carefully followed directions to check level after i did the spill and fill and filter change. I used 10 quarts. 9 was not quite enough. My trans temp was about 175 when I checked it. Truck sitting in my driveway very close to level where I always check oil pretty much every time for consistency. My driveway is just ever so slightly downhill to run water to the street.

      Sounds like maybe it's announcing Navigation turns or Alerts (it mutes the music) ? When it mutes again, turn up the volume quickly and see if maybe the navigation volume is really low?
