I ordered May 16. My order was done correctly, with POC, etc.
No VIN, no information, no one at FCA Canada seemed to care whatsoever. Terrible. My dealer couldn’t get any useful info either.

I finally got a VIN in mid-July. Hit D1 a few days later. Build date was August 1, and it has now crossed the border.

There is hope!

The dealer just told me today that my JLRU is starting its build process, I ordered about 5 weeks ago and he says it should be about another month. No LEDs, coudnt risk the wait. Finally some progress.

They do not know, they said I would have a better idea from the forums.
Everyone of the dealer's told me a different time line from 4-6 weeks to 8-12 weeks.

I ordered my JLUR on May 15. (red, LED lights, tow package, body colour fenders, dual-top). I think my order was processed the same as yours. Build date Aug 1. Dealer says it arrived in Montreal on train last Wednesday. Really hoping to see it this week (Ottawa) but not holding my breath.

My guess would be the first week of September. D status is about 5 days then D1 about 12 then inspection and delivery. I ordered a week before you and believe mine went into D last week I just found out.

Fellow Ontario guy here.

My order went in July 24, I'm "D" status, and have a VIN. Got it yesterday.

The order tracker doesn't have a build sheet or sticker for me yet.

East coast here. Ordered June 18th (4-door rubi, 3.6, 6 speed) no vin as of the first of this week (8 weeks from order) I was getting concerned at 5 weeks without a vin so I guess it’s at least a little reassuring to see us Canadians are all being screwed equally :D
