Haven't heard anything about the defect. I hope my new 2022 we bought this week doesn't have it. I will be searching now. Good luck and keep us updated.
The seat heaters (and rear park assist) are supposed to be available to be retrofitted, at the dealers, later on this yearIn transit could mean it was built and rolled out of assembly but is in a holding yard waiting for a module to come in and be installed for one of its options like the seat heaters. Near the plant would make it closer to module deliveries.
Yes, a 2022Are you looking to purchase another LT?
This dealer has NOTHING on their lot. Maybe like 15 new cars/trucks to sell right now....it's bare bones. The show room had 3 new cars when I was in there a few weeks ago.....it was empty today. The rest is all used cars.There is nothing like buying a car!
Dealer - It could be MONTHS, even YEARS before you see your car!
Two days later Dealer - It's on the lot, come get it in the next 5 minutes or I'm going to sell it out from under you!
So my lingering questions is about the heater core issue being replaced or not. And how many chips is it missing that will need to be retrofitted.
See last post above too.Key phrase is left a deposit.
Money talks and BS walks that's why it's in, dealer knew what they had on order and what was in transit.
Tire kickers don't open their wallets.
Retrofits, that's to be determined before the signature goes on IMO.
When I bought my last 2 new vehicles I went on the website and checked inventory in a 200-mile radius to see what was where.
Enjoy the new Traverse, it looks sharp! I'm seeing '22s on a daily basis and am really liking the updated look. Still not sold on the headlights being mounted in the bumper but it looks better than the Blazer or other vehicles with that look.This dealer has NOTHING on their lot.

And it's like this at any dealer around here in the metro Detroit area (Ford/Chrysler/GM land)...whatever is "in transit" is being tagged/held/sold on before it even hits the lots! And the (refundable) deposit was holding it for me.
He did say though, after I left the deposit, that I had "24 hours" to come and get it after it was delivered to the dealer.
The guy didn't say it was the heater core specifically, but a "supply line" or something. Then he "thinks" that mine just wasn't affected or something.
My car has the functional heated seats from the factory (they started building them with them again in February), and so the only "chip"/retrofit that it needs still is the "rear parking assist." (the rear radar where it beeps when you're close to things)
