GM Authority has the lowdown on why there are new Colorado’s and Canyon’s all over the ground, in Wentzville. More to the point, why aren’t they in customers hands?
“Thousands of 2023 Colorados and Canyons are still sitting at the Wentzville factory, with no explanation why,” states GM Authority reader Bobby B. “A tent has been seen built in the factory, which has previously been used when built vehicles needed to be repaired.”
Clearly, many customers are confused and a bit frustrated. After all, the start of regular production (SORP) began at the GM Wentvzille facility this past January, so what gives?
To find out, we reached out to General Motors directly.
“Production of GM’s midsize pickup trucks is well underway and we are shipping to dealers every day,” says the Director of Chevy Truck Communications, Shad Balch, in an email with GM Authority. “During launch, it is a common practice for us to temporarily build and hold vehicles to ensure quality before shipping to dealers. We know our customers are excited to get their new trucks. We are working to deliver them as quickly as possible.”
To paraphrase Eric Clapton – She’s Waiting (for her truck).
