Default Parts Availability

Why is GM still having issues with parts availability? With new Stingrays sitting on dealer lots with discounts, supply has more than caught up to demand. Yet my 2024 that was an unfortunate victim of a hit and run in December, is still sitting at the shop waiting for a hood and impact bar that are on backorder with no ETA. At this point, it seems like there's no excuse for GM/Chevy to not provide parts and support for cars that are still in production.

I have been waiting for an engine harness for over 4 months now. National backorder they say.

It is sad that this is happening - sure puts a damper on the ownership experience.

And this will get much worse when the C8 generation ends.
