The jeepgarage admin sometimes gets overwhelmed with tracking and has to cutoff new memberships for a while

Mine is sitting as well. I thought I read someplace they sit there until enough accumulate to fill a train car.

I first heard about the rail car shortage around Feb of this year, and that it affects all auto makers.

Mine is going from Toledo to Chicago - seems they’d just use a truck for these shorter hauls

Mine has been sitting since the 7/1 waiting for a truck going to Pittsburgh. Still need to wait for a full truck.

Called Jeep Cares again today... day 9 in KZ, now KZ-S status but I don't see that on the chart... I can only assume that R is rail and S is shipping via truck (mine is only going from OH to IL, about 300 miles)

Called the dealer and the GM said that it's sitting at "Nitro Creek" which is a holding yard there at Toledo.

Mine is also there. Estimated delivery date is 7/12. Mine is coming to central NY. Did the dealer say how fast these will move out of Nitro creek?

Did you ask your dealer sales rep to check their log for the status? They should be able to tell you where it is...whether it's on a rail transit or sitting in a storage yard. Jeep chat won't give you more details than that, but your dealer can. Don't be shy to inquire...it's your Jeep.

So my JL went from KZ status to delivered in 4 days. I found out that it was delivered by Jeep Chat. My dealer that I have been working with is away on vacation until next week. Is there any etiquette saying I should wait for him to return back to work? I have never met him in person, but he has helped with all my questions. My wife called the dealership and said we can get it Saturday (in 2 days). Should I wait or should I go get it?
