I wonder if dealers actually feel the same way about the trackers. It's like they've opened that proverbial can of worms by giving us a half-baked online tracker that only increases calls to dealerships when something doesn't update ?
exactly. I haven't heard of any strike ending as of now.
online tracker is as about as useful as a soap that doesn't clean.
My dealership's GM stopped trying to BS me and apologizes. He doesn't know, your dealer doesn't know. Stellanis keeps their dealers just far ahead enough in the info chain to keep us from swarming the corporate offices with hate mail. We are $$$ that is easily replaced with an in-person buyer to scoop up that Jeep the second it hits the lot. It is a bad time to be a buyer.
Just talked to my dealer and it’s in Lawrenceville! Just need a truck to bring it to the dealership.
It ended a day ago. Just google Stellantis strike and you will see a lot of articles.
My salesperson printed out the order sheet and we went over every option and line item on it to make sure it was being ordered how I wanted it. That is the OP's salesperson falling short. In this day and age, I double check everything, especially when money is involved.Their online build-and-price configurator has always been buggy like that for various years with certain options de-selecting other options (iirc, adding auto-4WD would always reset LED, cold-weather and other primary packages).
It's now been several months since the '23 configurator went live and despite reporting the various bugs via their 'website feedback', they're all still there and I literally can't create the exact build that I placed an order for.
"Oh, you want a 2-door Rubicon with an auto trans? Okay, please select an engine.. the 3.6L eTorque? Lovely choice. Your build has been updated with a manual trans, which isn't available with that engine. Oh, you're okay with the standard 3.6L, but want the auto-4WD? Okay, but you can only get that with the eTorque/auto combo, so let's give you the manual again and see what happens.."
It's not a Stellantis strike that anyone needs to be worried about. It's the railroad union strike. This Friday 60,000 rail workers (including conductors and engineers) will be on strike. Nobody to make the trains move.
Yeah that one is still up in the air, but isn’t technically a strike yet. I’m still hopefully that will be resolved in the 11th hour.
LOL I'm trying but at 77 my time is of the essence and would like to be ale to drive it before I go to that great Jeep graveyard in the sky
