I'm Jealous. I ordered the same but with a hardtop on the same day. Got scheduled on 09/30 but didn't start production till 10/17. It's still in production. I'm assuming they don't build them based on location. I live a few hours away from your area.

Yeah that's crazy, you would think location would have something to do with the build

Nice - pretty sure this build in under 3 weeks is the best time of the documented 2023 orders so far on here

Well, I guess this is how my week is going to start... 666 checks... If I get a call from the dealership today saying it's in, I'm not sure this is a good sign to pick it up :)

2023 2 dr Sarge Green Willys, Soft Top 3.6L MT
Dealer just sent me a bunch of screenshots that I'm having trouble deciphering. Status says KZLD, which is not listed in the "Guide ..." sticky on the subforum. Some posts say it means Shipped/Delayed or something similar. But, what the dealer sent me indicates an ETA window of 10/22-10/31 and dealer says "should be here any day!". It also lists last location type as "VDC" and "Event description" of "Ingate/Rebay at Facility," Anyone know what any of that means? Sound like maybe a case of too much info?

No movement as of today. Dealer says still in Final Inspection. Not sure what that means - probably waiting for my XR parts or something, I'm guessing.
That sounds promising. Yeah i emailed my dealer, same deal, sitting in final inspection.
My dealer said could be a week to a month.....
So close yet so far away....

Got the call & picked up the new jeep over the weekend! Excitement already tamed with two issues....

There was a significant paint defect in the front fender (driver side). Not something I've seen before, it's a bit larger than a quarter & appears to be under the clearcoat but it reacts to moisture (or maybe it's the temperature change from water) a bit differently from the paint around it & gets hazy after washed. *See below*

Second issue was with the MOPAR Sunrider For Hardtop. Ordered with the jeep & came fully assembled in a large box in the trunk. ISSUE: Seems like the top is not in proper alignment. The entire mechanism is very stiff and takes significant force to open or close. When in the closed position the passenger side latch won't close tight enough to clamp shut. I don't have a picture of this just yet since we had some rain so I put the hardtops back on!

Has anybody else run into issues with the factory Sunrider for hardtop option?? Outside of these two items everything else seems great! Hoping for a few more weeks of top down & doors off weather so I can enjoy it before winter!!!

Sorry to hear that. Good news is that both should be covered even if it will likely be a pain in the ass.

Still no word today about my Jeep arriving at the dealer after it said it was delivered on Friday but really wasn’t…

Not gonna lie… this sucks. I sure hope it’s this week. ?

That is particularly cruel to tell you it's arrived when it hasn't. That's like waking up Christmas morning to find they changed the calendar and it's March 13th...
