Interesting*. I don't recall any communication from FCA "suggesting", "promoting", "framing" a major change in a Paid Customer Order.
*not in a good way.

It has been called eTorque from the beginning.I am getting old. Well I am a lot older from when I ordered. Anyway, in reading your message, that eTorque thing didn't sound familiar. Has that been there all the time? I do remember reading the details on Jeep.com's build page, but I don't recall that term.
"The new 2.0L Four-Cylinder DOHC Turbo Engine with eTorque Technology"
Also, in going to the Build Page, it now pops up this message at the bottom, for about 20 seconds.
I don't remember seeing it there last week when I was doing some What If builds. But, like I said, this waiting is making me old before my time.

I have heard two takes on this.
One is that parts are not available, say something like the Headliners are are out of inventory and unable to meet the demands of production.
The second is that given a problem ( quality or fitment or policy or something ) a part cannot be used in production until a "fix" or re-engineering is done. In that case, if it is a long term issue, it may be removed from the order system.

I thought she had you and Chicago's VIN, so she would know where you guys were in line. BUT, at that time, all of us Turbo orders were taken out of the line - when the fixed engine/harness/batteries (whatever) we approved for production - you Clones would be sent to the front of the line. If that happened today, you could be built by this coming Monday.
If you significantly changed your order, I assumed you would just go to D1.
For my order, which had not been built, contained, and cloned when the parts come in, I will just go to D1 and the back of the line.
