The 2022 Chevy Tahoe and 2022 Chevy Suburban arrive as the second model year following full generational overhauls introduced for the 2021 model year. Both vehicles previously offered the Power-Sliding Console feature, but as covered previously, that feature was later under constraint. Now, however, the power-sliding console is once again available for High Country trim levels.
The feature in question is officially called the “Power-sliding center floor console with drawer, secure storage, manual sliding armrest and cup holders for second row,” and is tagged with RPO code DCH. Per previous GM Authority coverage, the feature has been unavailable to order since January, and it was later believed to be unavailable for the remainder of the 2022 model year.
Now, however, the Power-sliding center floor console has returned, but only for the 2022 Chevy Tahoe High Country and 2022 Chevy Suburban High Country trim levels. The feature is still unavailable to order on LT, RST, and Z71 trim levels, all of which offered the feature as an optional upgrade. The feature was also included as standard on Premier trim levels, but is still not available on the Premier either.
For those readers who may be unaware, the power-sliding console feature can automatically slide forwards or backwards up to 10 inches, with multiple positions and configurations for enhanced practicality and comfort.
In addition to constraint for the power-sliding console, the 2022 Chevy Tahoe and 2022 Chevy Suburban are both unavailable to order with the Rear-Seat Media System (RPO code UW9).
As a reminder, the 2022 Chevy Tahoe and 2022 Chevy Suburban are offered with three engine options, including the naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 L87 gasoline engine, the naturally aspirated 5.3L V8 L84 gasoline engine, and the 3.0L I6 LM2 turbodiesel Duramax. Under the body panels, both SUVs ride on the GM T1 platform, with production taking place at the GM Arlington plant in Texas.

That’s nice to hear. However, I’m a little disappointed that it’s only available on the High Country trim for now. It’s probably best to wait for the refreshed 2024 models. I’m really intrigued to seeing what the refreshed models will offer, perhaps Super Cruise and higher towing ratings for the Duramax engine? 👀
Hopefully they can get the chip situation resolved so I can order a complete new Tahoe. I don’t want to pay for something and then wait for GM to let me know when I can bring my new vehicle back to the dealership to get some options hooked up. Build a complete vehicle or no deal.
Fred…I Agree With You 100%… I Have Been A GM Owner All My Life But I Realize Who Wants To Order A Vehicle And Not Get What You Ordered ESPECIALLY When The Option Is Standard Equipment!. Also I Never Understood Why Some Options Are Standard On Some Models (Suburban For Example) But Not Available On Others (High Country). I Just Don’t Get It!
Any idea if they are also again available on the GMC Yukon Denali?
It is getting close to the point that to order a new vehicle, that the buyer requires GM and the Dealer sign a performance contract, for options to be included, guaranteed price on delivery, and delivery date. Failure to deliver with the ordered options, price and delivery date, would be a penalty of ($$$) per day for non performance. We’ll never see it in the automobile industry, but there is tender contracts that actually have those clauses included for some purchases, ( fire department pumpers, rescue trucks, and aerial ladder trucks)
I got a High country Tahoe because My original order didn’t even get picked up from GM. My lease is close to being expired so I had no other choice. Question does anybody know how to turn on the interior lights on the instrument panel. During the day can I see some of them.
Hold down one of your map lights til they all come on. Then hold again to turn them off.
My Tahoe has been o order fort hree months wats the holdup/
My Suburban Order Is Going On 4 Months…I Am Told I Will Lucky To Have The Order Processed This Year!
I ordered my GMC Yukon Denali with duramax in late December. Was advised by the dealer last week that GM accepted the order for production the first week of April. I expecting delivery in early May. Worth the wait. Have a 2021 GMC Yukon Denali XL I’m trading in. So I’m happy to wait.
I see today that UW9 is available again on GM’s website for 2022 Yukon’s.
Have had a Tahoe High Country on order since September and have not heard anything. Cannot get much info from dealer.
I’d settle for a manual sliding console if a powered one is not an option due to chip shortages. Would be nice to see that as an option, just saying.
