Talked to Jeep again today, they said JB status was "normal" up to two weeks. Beyond two weeks was when they said that it would become an issue so it sounds like I've got another week of the dreaded JB freeze...

I have been in JB for 30 days, no one will tell me why. They keep blowing sunshine up my butt about “should go KZ any day”... :headbang:

I ordered dual top, along with body matched hard top. Unfortunately I also did the Trail Rail system, soft stop storage bag too. I'm thinking these three things might be the thorn in my side. I did the mopar mats and the cargo liner tub thing but haven't heard anyone complain about those two things.
Well received an update today 6/26 that my Jeep has moved to KZ status late 6/25. No update to the ETA on shipping though. Hoping the TRMS and soft top window bag are going to be included... Based out of the Indy area. Hopefully Toledo will just be a quick semi truck drive over.

Mine is still in JB just checked. I am wondering are they in plant shutdown right now for the 4th. I know BMW here is or will soon be. I keep making my hope to be payment in my savings account so I guess more money down.

As mentioned above, my JL was in JB for 3 weeks. For everyone’s SA, per the Jeep hotline, if your Jeep was ordered over 45 days ago, and has been in the same status for 14+ days, it meets the criteria for them to “escalate”. They told me I would get a call within 1-2 business days. I didn’t. I called back at about hour 49 :)cwl:) and they told me it is now in KZ status and had just updated today. Long story short, call and escalate if you can, not sure that it helped me or if the timing was coincidence, but hey it doesn’t hurt:)

I ordered 5/28. JB status on 6/15. KZ status as of today, 6/27.

JL Rubicon. StingGray. Every option. Color matched top/fenders (dual tops).

Stoked!

:rock:
Hopefully I am soon I ordered on 5/25 I should have tracked it better. I know it was JB on the 20th.

Mine was already in D status with a VIN when I ordered on 5/28 so I’m sure that helps.
