I do not know, nor do I know how to find out but I agree that the Camaro should have its own sequencing and am not sure why they do not.

0 usually replaces the 1 etc. in the 1XXXXX sequences for Captured Test Fleet builds.

But not always, CF car at Seattle auto show has a Vin of G0108176 so what are they doing?

I believe we will have to wait. Maybe someone more knowledgeable than I am about how these numbers are recorded will step up and tell us. I do not see this as proprietary information.

My last off topic post for laborsmith. Do you think we are still in track for an halloween week of shipping with the builds starting late last week.

Like 1100-3300-3400 etc. So you KNOW what step it is as codes are fixed.

I wrote how I contact Chevy up there, hope that helps.

Edited my post with it but here it is: G0115933.

I also called my dealership after (Huffiness Chevrolet in Lewisville, TX), invoice has NOT been created just yet. While my vehicle is completed, it's waiting for quality check. Also, my dealership said that for 2016's the vin decoding is different. So he did not want to speculate on the production and went to do some research. I'll update the results of his research when he gets back to me, which makes sense as no way in hell Chevy already made 120k camaros. lol

I logon just as you describe. BUT, when it tells me to type something in the box below, the only thing I get is a red circle and it doesn't allow me to type anything.
What should I do?
Perhaps use a different browser like firefox?

Help!

You gotta wait until the Chevy rep responds before you can type. I've seen that take up to 5 minutes.

I am trying again. I see that in the upper left corner. It reads "Waiting For Agent"
I will wait. Hopefully they respond.

Yep. Halloween Weekend with dealership deliveries beginning the following Monday. Although we do not know what day they started. And that is anticipating the normal QC Hold, which to me seems reasonable since the Cadillac version has been assembled since July 13 (I corrected the date above) and though some parts are different they are going in in a similar order. IE: Cadillac seats and Camaro seats will not be the same but will be installed at the same place on the line using the same tools.

Yes, I finally got thru. After 15 minutes. But, I'm still at 3400
The advisor was quick in her reponses.

I am being very hopeful for GM to hit target dates, but it sounds like parts from external vendors has held things up a little bit. By how much, only people at the plant, know. But time will tell. Can't wait to get a VIN!

I'm hoping I get my VIN by end of this week too. I contacted Chevy today and they verified I'm still at 3400 status.
