Updated with software flash fix timing, per @JeepCares [link to posts on JL forum]
I saw another post of yours, starting at a certain point new vehicle builds are being held at the factory and will be flashed prior to arriving at the dealer.

The flash is expected in March, but I don't have any specifics.Long shot, but any ballpark idea of how much of delay this will cause in new orders? I was quoted 4-6 week prior to any recall FYI.

Yes it will be delayed. The flash is expected in March. The recall affects all manuals built until the flash is available.Thanks Kaitlin. So you are saying my manual which was built 10 days ago will likely sit until some (not determined) date in March before it’s shipped? I thought this clutch issue only impacted units built before mid-January?

Hi, yes it will be delayed. The flash isn't available yet and the dealer can't deliver it with an open recall.I'm expecting my new 6 speed 2 door Rubicon to be shipped on Feb 18th (friday). Dealer told me everything is on track. Should I expect it not to show up? I read through the posts and it sure seems that way. I'm confused, depressed

I just received a call from my dealer who told me they have a stop order on all sales of manual transmissions to fix that clutch recall mentioned from a few days ago.
I was flying into DC tomorrow to pick up said Jeep, but no longer. This is terrible, and obviously no ones fault other than Jeep.
Any advice for me going forward? I don’t want to blame anyone, but this leaves such a salty taste in my mouth.
In case anyone was wondering I’m purchasing through Koons, Vienna VA.
