My new vette is at status code 3400, which I think is being built this week. Hope to have it soon.

 

Mine is being built the week of 11/28 but I don't know what the status code is. I can't wait to get it though. The wait is torture.

 

I'm at 3400 with a TPW of 11/14; I have no idea what "broadcast for production" is or how it is any different from 3300, but I only ordered a few weeks ago, so I'm not complaining.

 

Mine, too.

That's precisely what it means.
Or so-says my salesman, who has been on top of everything up to now.

Yea, the est delivery date for mine's 11/25/05...day after Thanksgiving.

Mine is also being built the week of 11/28. My status code right now is 3000. My dealer is going to send me a weekly update, so I can track the progress. I agree...it is torture, but it's better than having no order due to constraints.

 

mine has been 3400 for about 2 weeks almost. its TPW was 11/7/2005

so im checking dealerworld every day to see if it went to 3800.

 

do i need to contact my dealer to get this status code?

 

Mine is 3300
TPW 11/21

 

3400 Broadcast to Prodcution means the order (Production Order) has been released to the production floor. This is the last Production Planning & Control step before real assembly starts to happen. At this point the Manufacturing Execution System (MES) has control of the Production order and performs all of the detail scheduling and orders for sub-assembly parts, and any kitting activities. The MES controls everything until the car is completely assembled and then it signals Production PLanning & Control / VOMS with a 3800 status code.

If your TPW is still a week in the future, all that really happens is that your car has been grouped in a specific sequence in the MES and the various sub-assemblies can be kitted and placed in matching sequence. The week of production, these sub-assemblies are physically sequenced (Prob only day prior) and made available to the line (On Day of Assembly for that station). A JIT oriented build process.

In any case - your order is now locked in a build sequence and your dates are very firm. @ 3400, Kevin can likely look-up your car in the MES to see what day/time it will go thru each of the various assembly work stations. This is how he knows when to take you to the various areas to see your car mid-assembly.

 

guess that means late Nov completion and mid Dec delivery!
