Interesting convo at dealer today...

[steveale]

Stopped by to see if they showed same status as Jeep cares said a couple days ago, status D1 but no estimated ship date. Dealer confirmed.

Also proceeded to say that he can “enter” LE orders, probably due to some original orders being cancelled.

The next thing he said really caught my attention. A couple of items such as the steel bumper came up as “constrained-waiting allocation”.

Sounds like some of the 3rd party suppliers may be behind on providing materials for the LE production run.

Just FYI. Take it for what it’s worth.

D1 - The date is set for your truck to be built. The plant knows when it should have parts sequenced for building and it should start to be built within 48 hours of the date set.

D2 - It's going to be built. The computers are being programmed, materials are being sequenced, framing is about to occur.

E - Frame. Metal is welded together to form the body and frame. The body is inspected at the end of this step to ensure it's within tolerances.

F - Paint. The metal is coated, primed, sprayed, clearcoated, polished, inspected, and hand finished if necessary.

G - Trim. The engine is installed in the chassis, the interior is installed, the chassis is mated to the body, the bed is put on. At the end of this, your new vehicle is built.

I - Inspection. Your vehicle goes through a battery of shakedown tests and measurements are taken to ensure the vehicle looks and performs as expected.

JB / KZP- Body Vendor. The vehicle is sent off site to have a spray liner put in, steps, etc.

JS - Storage. Waiting to be shipped.

KZ - Shipment. The truck is ready to be shipped. The dealer is actually charged for the truck. As you all know, this can be a source of delay. Typically you see me put two statuses here: Awaiting Shipment and "Staged for Shipment".

KZX - Delivered to your dealer!

No date set so not sure what D1 really means.

Until it’s at your dealer it really doesn’t matter.

My JLR delivery took two days longer in Salt Lake City because the delivery truck to Idaho needed its brakes done. Point is, just because its scheduled and confirmed, it doesn’t mean anything until it arrives at the dealer. Not rub salt here, but one more delay, dealer prep.

BG --- like to know what that means as well

 

[steveale]

My dealer said BG is all the paperwork submitted is correct up through a buyers order and deposit but there is some issue on the factory side. Typically they might be out of capacity to schedule/build temporarily, constraint on material, etc.

Ahhhh, OK, Thanks

BG primarily indicates a material restriction. This order period the steel front bumper was quickly restricted so those orders will go to BG. Typically a sold order will still be accepted if the dealer has allocation and it will sit in C status until the restriction is lifted. 26-year dealer employee here handled new car inventory and ordering for several years and still have access in the FCA system.

I’m so sick of not knowing anything and everything is pure speculation. Drives me bonkers .

Sorry for the rant

Thanks for the info.. mine has the sold information and has been in the BG status for about a week now

Looks pretty bleak that it will not be arriving in mid June as I was hoping..

I did a little research today. Looks like window stickers are made available when the vehicle reaches KZ status.
