Guide: Wrangler Order, Build, Tracking and Delivery Process

When you receive your build sheet, does that mean the vehicle is built? Or does it serve as a checklist that employees at the factory use to gather all the necessary parts?

It’s supposed to be used in the build process, but due to the current lag in updating, most times now it comes available after the vehicle is built.

Thanks for the info! Although I don’t have a window sticker yet, I’m able to see my Jeep on the Mopar website. Does that further solidify the possibility that my car has been fully built?

It’s proabaly built, it does not take long to run down the assembly line. From there is goes to vendors, inspection and then to the dreaded storage lot.

It is likely built, unless there are mopar extras, in that case it would be with the vendor for installation of those pieces. Things like hardtop headliners, door sills, etc. It can be there from a few days to a few weeks depending on how they are doing with parts.

Hi all, I just found out that my Jeep is in the shipping stage with a dealer ETA of 4/11 - 4/19. Are these generally accurate? My Jeep is being transported via truck to the dealership located in MD.

Since it's by truck, it's more accurate that if by rail. Good luck.

So to my surprise, I got word that my JLUR arrived at the dealer! I probably should have figured this out sooner but I'm gonna ask opinions anyway.

Last time I bought a vehicle from a dealer that was not in my local area was 19 years ago and then I didn't care about credit as I was a teen and most vehicles bought since then have been with my ex at dealers purchased on the spot with limited haggling.

I will say my credit is excellent, above 800. I'm cautious about who I should try financing with. I am going to call my current credit union tomorrow morning when they open to get rates. My ultimate goal is to put down $10k (between cash and trade-in). Ordered from Chapman PA. No money down was required and 5% below invoice. I want to get a rate from my credit union but not entirely sure how much I should essentially apply for. How should I go about getting a number with military discount and taxes and with trade-in. Not being near them, a couple hours away, and not being able to get up there until Saturday makes it somewhat a pain in the butt. Just looking for basic guidance.

Appreciate everyone's help!!

Hate to say it but all that should have been settled long ago. Don’t know what you are trading but at best figure wholesale depending on condition.

i agree with that. I ordered from Chapman PA and i mentioned my trade and looked for a price then. They said ordered without money down. Said the purchase price would be whatever the 5% below FWP is at that time of delivery not to mention they weren’t taking the trade back in November since it is my daily vehicle from then until I trade it. So mileage would’ve have been a big difference from then to now.

Good, always have financing done when you show up, no matter your credit rating. The dealer should give you OTD price, so you'll know what to tell your credit union.
Then at closing see what rate they offer and if it gets you better terms.
Good luck to you.

I got my final invoice. Nothing signed as of yet. But i noticed a couple extra charges on it. a "Fuel fill/batter charge" for $56 and a "T3AC" for $125. Dealer is saying they are seeing this on all sold orders and its comes directly from Stellantis, not the dealer. Makes no sense cuz on the final invoice (POC) it shows 4 additional gallons of gas for $9 PLUS the fuel fill/battery charge of $56. Thoughts anyone?

The dealer honored my original order pricing from back in Nov '21 which is great but i'm trying to understand that that extra $181 plus tax.

Will have to wait to see my final invoice but dealer has already told me my order is protected and I have it in writing.
