Only thing that makes sense is Jeep would compartmentalize production as not to let anyone a jump on designing of competing products. We do this a lot in our industry. Less people know the better it is for the business.
Exactly. I would expect that the team working on the OEM top is on NDA and compartmentalized from the aftermarket group. I have experience with this from my past business as well.

Hey there!

The Demand for the revolutionary new Wrangler JL soft top has been unprecedented – and we continue to increase our production to meet that demand. We know everyone is excited to receive their JL, it's like waiting for new parts to arrive, but times times worse :)

Yes we all know about unprecedented and feel the delay. Will all the 4dr jeeps in the backlots without tops not being shipped going delay the 2dr production schedule. Do we all need to change our orders to hardtops or just cancel totally. I have driven jeeps for 55 years don't want to quit.

So basically this did not answer any of my questions. Has whatever issues causing the hold up been resolved? Are you currently meeting production rates? Should we expect further delays?

@BestopTeam — Spoke with jeep chat today, and they said there is still a delay on the soft tops. Can you shed any additional light on this? Was hoping to have my Rubi before going camping in May. Not looking good..

I’d like to +1 this, but it is not good news!

Cassie @BestopTeam must have been pulled from social media and retasked to a sewing machine to help them get caught up.
