Don't think the build date will occur. The 7th is International Beer Day, I think the plant is shut down that day to celebrate.

An interesting development @nerubi

Because of your suggestion I asked the guy I have been dealing with for a POC, which of course I didn't even know one existed until you mentioned it. They didn't even supply me with a bill of sale or agreement to purchase when I placed the order. Anyways.

I just got off work and finally had a chance to go over the bill of sale and POC.

Interestingly enough, despite us physically going into the dealership, placing the order and putting a deposit down on the afternoon of May 25 2020 for a 2020 MY... the order placed date on the POC clearly states June 12 2020. Almost three whole weeks later, despite me telling the guy I am driving a ticking time bomb for a vehicle and I am unsure how much longer it will last / I can't afford excessive delays.

I guess that explains how we missed the 2020 production date cut off. Bunch of clowns.

Didn't think that kind of thing happened in Canada.

So it shows it as a 2021. Same trim, co!or and options? Same prices you agreed to in May? The 2021 MY costs more than the 2020.

Didn't think what kind of thing happens in Canada? Bait and switch?

While directly ignoring my question when I asked how we missed the 2020 cut off date (now I know why he ducked me on that topic) he declared without being prompted that we will pay the same price as the 2020 would have cost.

I am doing 13 hour days at work these days so I haven't gone through the manifest with a fine tooth comb, but I will, looking for option changes etc.

Nothing glaringly obvious sticks out, save for the erroneous order date of course. Before I jam my foot directly in my mouth with this guy, is there a chance that listed order date could be inaccurate?

As much as I wouldn't want to incur a higher purchase cost for their lack of time management, I am much more concerned that I am going to have to burn two grand just to keep my hunk of crap on the road to get us to the delivery date of the Jeep. That's really what I don't want to happen.

Is the 10th character of your VIN an L or M? L is 2020, M 2021. Nothing you can change now if it is 2021. If 2020 the build should be done by mid-August and then shipped. If 2021 there is no way to know for sure when it will be built. There are still orders for 2020 from Jan and Feb waiting to be built while some from first couple days of Jun have been built ahead of them.
Again make sure they aren't charging you the 2021 prices, get it in writing from them.

It's an M / 2021 for sure.

I already have the price thing in writing, at least.

I wouldn't have thought they would have sat on the order that long, why would they do that? I'm rather annoyed.

My very first Jeep! So excited!!!

Ordered: 7/7
VON AND VIN: 7/8
Chat 7/9 said waiting for parts


2021 Willys
Firecracker Red
2.0 Turbo
Technology pkg
Cold weather pkg
Convenience pkg

Nothing too fancy, but it will be mine and I can hardly contain my excitement! Even keeping it a surprise for my hubs as he wanted something but couldn’t handle the wait on a factory order so he gave up. So now....we get exactly what we wanted without any compromise! Yay!

My 2021 is cheaper than 2020. Technology package decreased in price. And if I ordered white, it would be even cheaper. Or did I screw something up?

My first date was a "I'm hearing shipping dates as soon as 8/7/2020" from my salesman when my VIN was sent to me.. This is the first specific date I've been given on my POC. (8/21/2020)
