That’s strange, those are the optional tires:

Options are different for sport s
also cold wheather packages up from $700.00 to $995.00
since I ordered.
So I am saving $600.00 since I ordered.

Ordered 2021 Wrangler High Altitude
Hi,
Ordered my High Altitude 2.0L Turbo with Full-Time 4WD (Selec-Trac and Trac-Loc), Sky One-Touch, Advanced Safety Group, Off Road Camera plus standard features (Safety Group, Cold Weather group, remote start, etc)
Was told by dealer 6-8 weeks.
Order went in Jan 25th
BX a few weeks later.
Stuck in BX until last week where it went back to BG for a few days.
Now back to BX.
14 Weeks and counting with no movement.

I'm only a month from placing my order. I've moved from BG to BX but that's it so far. I think I've heard of other Canadian's getting their VIN's in a month or 6 weeks, no?

I have a VIN but I tried to get an update from my dealer this morning.

Was told “As of now, we still have no estimated ship date as the Jeep plant is currently shut down.”

Boo. Anyone else hear anything similar?

No , as far as I’m aware that plant is not and has not been shut down.

That’s what I said but they are insistent. Pretty sure they are just assuming.

From my understanding the Toledo plant where the wranglers are built is operational to keep up profits for FCA.

I am almost certain they are not closed. My Wrangler build has been going through the plant this week. Yesterday it was in final inspection. My original ship date way May 7th and it looks like that is holding true. I think your dealer is making excuses....for what?? .....I am not sure.

****EDITED**** I just realized we bought from the same dealer. That is weird they are telling you that. If you go on CASSEN's website you can see their shipments they have received. They recently received 2 wranglers and 2 gladiators so the plant can't be closed. There dealer number is C5114 for the CASSEN's website

Ooo that's a really handy resource. I will keep my eye on it. Weird my salesperson didn't want to check on build status for me.

Hopefully mine stays true to the dealer saying it is supposed to arrive this month when I put in my down payment to reserve an incoming unit.

Is Cassens an Ontario only thing?

I think so. They are headquartered out of Illinois but have terminals in London and Windsor.
Gotcha.

Can't find my dealer there, So assumed only Ontario, or at lease Eastern CA

10 weeks and we got a VIN!!!
I’m so excited to get our Willy’s but have a feeling I’m in for a huge let down.
Anyone in Canada know how long after receiving a VIN is the vehicle actually delivered?
