I ordered a 2022 Traverse in February 2022. It was built in March 2022 and released to ‘TRANSIT” for delivery on April 5, 2022. Today is August 12, 2022. I have yet to take delivery of the 2022 traverse I ordered. Its stuck in a transit lot in Lansing, Michigan, 60 miles away from my dealership. Chevrolet Customer Service tried to tell me once it released to “TRANSIT”, I have to talk to my dealership as they now have control over when it gets delivered. Dealerships do not have control over vehicles in “TRANSIT”. Chevrolet tells the shipper when they want the vehicles delivered which is why the 2023 Traverse is currently being delivered to the dealerships while the 2022 Traverse is sitting in shipping lots.
