The dreaded JB freeze

[Sunin-Retired]

I ordered on 8/8, was in D1 8/11 with est date as 8/18 which is today. Just chatted with Jeep care and they says I'm in JB now. I do have LED option which is on restriction. THis is what chat rep told me:
" Vehicle has been built and is pending installation of additional equipment. This is a necessary step when additional features or optional equipment packages are added to the vehicle. JB Status"

WTH. How? What build I ordered 7/27 and am still on D1

Nope blk freedom top JLR, led, cold, infotainment and tow. I wonder of the 2dr slows it down

Was told I'm in "JBS" status. Not sure what that one is. I called twice and talked with 2 different people. It's definitely "JBS". What does that mean?

Did you order a power top? Or any other rarer options that may have held it up? Jeep usually to wait until they have a batch of similar cars to run a production group. So if you chose a particularly unusual color or combination of options, that could be causing the delay. But still, 37 days in JB is a while...

 

[PizzaFreak]

I don’t think I ordered anything out of the norm. Anyone see something on here that could cause a delay?

 

[PizzaFreak]

Are the leather seats custom ordered?

Are the leather seats custom ordered?

Yes, $1495 option.

 

[PizzaFreak]

Make that 44 days! Ugh!

 

[FUHL]

Mine was in Inspection for 45 days, now in JB. I hope it isn't there for another 45 days.

I found out yesterday what was holding the Jeep up. It is the leather seats! If you order leather, Beware!

Do you know which leather is worse? Just got into JB and I ordered tan leather....

Why does the leather create a holdup?

How'd you find that out?
