IMO, chip holds are meaningless and people shouldn’t worry about it. Comparing MY22 to MY23 timelines, the days to move between statuses are fairly similar and in some cases are even improved. It seems like there has always been a “chip hold” and it may as well be part of the process and not an extraordinary hinderance.

If you look at the excel file linked in my signature, there is a tab with a number of pivot tables that will give you an idea of what is within a reasonable range. The average from In production to built is 10 days. Min was 7 days. Max was 19 days.

Once built, the average to ship is 4 days. Min was 1 day. Max was 7 days.

If you want to update mine - my build date was the same as blend - 11/7/22 and I got the tear tag the next day. Modules active on 11/9/22 I believe. No ship date yet.

I just called. Chip shortage on mine as well. How long have these been taking to clear?

also I was told that my private offer has not been added and that I needed to contact the dealer. Has anyone had this issue?

Chip hold discussion up-thread, but appears to be 1-2 weeks (maybe more), depending on trim.

What list number did you have on your sticker? Did you have a spray in bedliner?
Yes on spray in liner. 342 of 343 I think. I’ll check sticker when I’m at my computer. Good luck!

I beg to differ sir, I'm at 14 days built to (still not) shipped today! Now that I've done my daily complaint, I feel sated lol.
