3400 Question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Red Hot SS · 06-08-2009, 10:03 AM

Okay I did a search and couldnt really find what I'm lookin for. Sorry if this has already been covered.

My Dealer has been very accomodating, the only thing is that he has never had a TPW for me.

I was at 3000 on around 5/14 and he didnt have a TPW.
I called today and I am now at 3400 (order broadcast). So my question is...What exactly does that mean?

Can others who have already been through that process give me some insight into how long it should take for my car to be built/shipped?

Broadcast is basically when they start the actual build of your car. You should have your VIN (status 3800 - built) within a week or two. It should ship within a week after that and then take another week or two to get to you. I say should because it could get held in QC before shipping and could take longer. These are all just estimates and could take more or less time. There's lots of cases where something "went wrong" per say and took MUCH longer.

yeah, find out the exact date u went 3400. usually within 5 days u get built (3800) and get ur VIN!

delivery has been 2-4 weeks after 3800.

congrats.........it's coming..

Become omnipotent.

Your dealer can practice a little dentistry and try to extract the info from the dealer business center but that may or may not be successful.

Yes actually there is: 800-222-1020

However, dont get your hopes up. Members of this forum affectionately refer to this number as 1-800-USELESS.

You may get some info, you may not. Its really hit or miss

you should have urs by weeks end unless u are in QC hold. if you have ur VIN #, politely ask ur dealer to look it up that way.

they should 100% be able to tell u where ur Camaro is...........maybe not why, but absolutely where!

seems hit and miss lately. but, rumor has it that they are really pumping them outta QC hold. even is you wind up in QC, shouldn't be long at this point!

Unless there are new major problems popping up, such as the battery cable issue, I would think there would be few to no cars going into a QC Hold status. I would tend to believe when issues are found, these are relayed to the mfg process and during future builds.

Chevy Jim · 06-08-2009, 11:49 AM

Thanks for the info. I called GM and was told the car has left the factory no date as to when. I assume it has been shipped.
