Help with VIN number

[PistolPetesC8]

Hi guys, I need a little help tracking the status of a car. The VIN is 1G1YC2D41M5105473.

The back story is my best friend lives in Arizona, his dealer has been telling him the car should be there next week, next week it’s not there. Not sure if it’s stuck in a rail yard, or held up with a constraint.


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Status tells you.
If it's 4B00 then it's likely constrained.
If it's 4200 or 4300 then it's likely sitting in a railyard.
We've seen it take a month to 6 weeks to arrive to the left coast.

VIN 5473 should have been built weeks ago. Google search finds this car is listed here:

%VEHICLE_SEARCH_PAGE_KEYWORDS_CAP_FIRST_LETTER% Vehicles in %CITY% at %DEALER_NAME% Near %DEALER_GEO_ONE%

Search our inventory of %VEHICLE_SEARCH_PAGE_KEYWORDS_CAP_FIRST_LETTER% vehicles near %DEALER_GEO_ONE%, %DEALER_GEO_THREE% and %DEALER_GEO_TWO% in %CITY%

No, the car is assigned by GM to his inventory once built. It really means nothing.

No, the car is assigned by GM to his inventory once built. It really means nothing.

However, it makes it most likely to be sitting at a railyard. I believe it becomes inventory when invoiced and it's not invoiced until it's released to the carrier.

I wonder if this works for us Canadians.

 

[Murray20c8]

Yes, it likely would, but when you access your car from Onstar it turns off the cars delivery mode and it draws a lot more power from the battery. That is what got ChevyDude in trouble with GM.

Thanks for the replies and information guys. I shared it with my friend. I think the dealer is jacking him around. Dealers in Arizona are asking up $15k over MRSP and willing the bet the dealer will try to squeeze more for the car.
