It seems a larger than normal number of recently produced vehicles are being held up for quality control holds. Anyone familiar with the details or even care to speculate as to why?
I Finally have some good news for orders that are on Quality Hold, BGA has made some headway over the last few days and you should all now seeing these vehicles release very soon. This is great news. Christmas is coming early so those who had their vehicles built during weeks of 10/28 & 11/5.

This is just a guess but I’m going to say missing parts due to a shortage. They bay them and they sit waiting for the parts to come in and be installed before shipping.

Reason: Fixed bad quote tags

Unfortunately, I think this is true according to the recent posts in the September Allocation thread. Unfortunately, I happen to be one of them. I have been on quality hold for 11 days and counting.
Since this thread indicated anticipated shortages of heater controls starting sometime in mid Nov, it seems unlikely that there are other shortages that occurred earlier. These may be actual QA holds. Hopefully they do keep shipping cars.

John (the person who was quoted in the link you posted) posted today in the September Allocation thread that some of the quality holds are indeed from a parts supply issue. See his post in the link below:

Awesome news John. Thank you for posting this info for us.
Hoping for some concrete positive news on release of quality holds this week. Surprised no one in these forums has a personal friend at BGA that can provide specifics.

How cool is that. That's good info for those guys for sure. Way to go John, you're more transparent than GM themselves lol

John just posted some good news , his info has been spot on so far , I think it's more than you'll get from BGA
I got an email Sunday from Shane at the Corvette Museum about my 12/13 build. He said they generally estimate up to 2 weeks for QC, release and shipment.
My new 2022 C8 Coupe was built on Nov. 4.
It just got shipped today Nov. 16.
My C8 went thru Quality Control, it took 12 days. The QC info was relayed to me by Shane Webb at the Corvette Museum, a very reliable source and help.
Hope this helps whoever is waiting.
