All Order or Status Change Questions in Here

Is it just me our is the Chevy track order site down?

Site:
Chevy Order Tracking | Track Your Order | Chevrolet

I can't get my standard order info anymore.

I do not know but would not be surprised. Also as long time readers may remember, I am not a fan of the official tracking site, mainly because it is rarely specific and almost never helpful.

Per posts from a non Sonic site, the official Chevy tracking is working again. Speculation is there may have been site updating going on, but no one knows for sure, or, to be correct, those who know are not saying.

Thank you for the info Laborsmith.

The tracking site isn't working for me yet.

The good news is it did have my car in status last week, but not now. I suspect my car is progressing, but only the factory knows how much.

Apparently the order track site is really still in development phase. I find that odd given the realities of supply chain management that clearly GM has in spades given their successful global reach.

The Chevy dot com tracking site is a joke.

And it is even more a joke now than it was a couple of years ago.

That is my opinion and I am sticking to it. Any attempts to confuse me with the facts will be rejected with disdain.

Few more days and we should have a TPW for you

Mine is showing (RBGBTP) on the website but it only gives general ordering info. Will it give build updates in the next couple weeks?

the Chevy site is pretty generic in the information
it provides. Once it's built it will go to a Shipped/Enroute
status, but until that time, what you see is what you get

That's why we have this thread - better info

 

[laborsmith]

True ^ that. Much better. That is why several of the active SOF members are so happy Becky agreed to do this.

Yes, thanks for the updates Becky, its good to know my car is actually progressing.

My dealer submitted my order on April 30th and apparently I now have a target build week of may 27 and am at status 3100. Thanks Becky for that info.

Lets see if we can sort out the GM build process by comparing the seemingly random dates of production.

ATX SONIC,
I placed my order with the dealer on April 30th too. Chevy live chat just informed me that mine has a target build week of May 27th as well!
I wonder who's car will be first down the assembly line!
Did you order a hatch, or sedan?

Becky, any additional information that you can
provide throughout the process would be much appreciated.
Thank you for all of your help!

Wow, it is a race then. Both cars on April 30th.

I got a sedan LTZ 1.4T with 6-speed manual. Color options are the black exterior and brick/black interior.

I'm thinking if anything slows me down over other sonics will depend on what interior pieces are primed on the assembly line or if it even matters on something like that. My ignorance on today's car assembly lines is pretty steep. I'd be fascinated to see how things are actually done

My order number is RBCPW9. I am thinking delivery in mid June is most likely.

 

[LTZ ICE]

The race is on for sure... The Black/Brick is a nice combo! Not all that common.
Mine is a LTZ sedan as well. White Diamond Tricoat with Jet Black/Dark Titanium interior.
I also ordered the 1.4 Turbo with the 6 speed manual.
As far as assembly, much has changed over the years. Not only just the technology, but the quality control is now top draw. Take a look on You Tube. Search Chevy Sonic Assembly Plant, and you will see a state of the art facility. GM spent 550Million retooling that plant for the Sonic. Let's not forget, MADE IN THE USA, BY AN AMERICAN COMPANY!
I hope you are right with the mid June prediction. I was thinking it may be more towards the end of June. I'm with you, let's shoot for mid June!

Thanks for the link. Its nice it wasn't a rick roll too.

I am thinking your rare color choice will cause you to lose the date of completion race since that tri coat may mean time to set and then paint again.

 

[laborsmith]

Orion uses a new "wet process" in the paint shop so I do not believe the tint coat will slow the build down.
