Another Update!

This time begging for status update, nobody called to inform me. I had to insist a lot!
My Jeep is now JB = shipped to body vendor

Curious to know what on my build could not be done at the factory. Maybe the install of the LSD?

Depending on what will be installed, this could take 1 day to 2 weeks!

Time Line so far
April 8th - Confirmed Order with factory
April 21st - Confirmed D Status from Dealer
May 8th - VIN is now confirmed!
June 1st - Dealer contacted informing vehicle was being built
June 14th - Vehicle currently at JB Status - Shipped to Body Vendor

I contacted jeep cares.
Unfortunately they only take care of USA customers.
This was their reply:

"Thanks for reaching out directly to our team!

And if you Contact Customer Care for Jeep Canada they tell you to contact your dealer.
JEEP/FCA Canada need to get their sh!t together. So frustrating!

Word for word on the response I got from them. And Jeep Canada also said to talk to your dealer.
just spent an hour at the dealer. Had a nice chat with the sales manager. His hands are tied and can really only provide the status of the build. He did comment on the fact that there is a quota on how many builds go to each country/province per month. Wouldn’t be surprised if less then 100 wranglers make it to Ontario every month. He also said their dealership is seeing wranglers come in around 6 months. So only a couple more weeks to go if all goes well. But won’t hold my breath.

UPDATE (not Really!!!)
I called FCA Canada customer care line.
I asked them if over four months or more is normal.
They apologized for the delay.
They only kept on replying. " talk to your dealer. They will have the most updated information. "
What a crock of shXX !!
Will be calling my dealer.

Yeah, I had the same answer. They apologized for the delay and told me to keep in touch with the dealer. This is month 8 for me! Just heard that they think it was painted yesterday and possibly shipped this week ...I'll believe it when I see it lol. So frustrating!

I got the same response from FCA Canada.

My dealer just says there is nothing they can do and they will call me when it comes in - no other info.

Was just told me Jeep will not be built - in spite of being in D1 since April. Blaming unavailability of chips for the roof and cold weather package.

Being sick of the runaround, I have canceled my order. Jeep will not be getting this Canadian’s money.

Even after they assigned you a VIN? That is harsh. I feel for you.

So the plot thickens.

Within an hour of being told I absolutely would not get the Rubi I ordered and should cancel my order, the dealer had a Sahara Unlimited arrive with every option I had requested on the Rubi except the colour.

WTF? Why is FCA building spec cars when they have active orders?
