Just dropping in to say hello from Canada. I'm new to the forum - placed an order for my new Jeep JK May 14th. Still no VON issued The waiting game is terrible!
Hope to see everyone around on the forums! :iamhappy:
I placed my order about a month ago and am still waiting for a VIN. The first post in the 2015 JKU Waiting Room has some great information. I actually received a call from the dealership and they were surprised I knew about the monthly allotments for their orders from Chrysler.
I placed my order on March 31st. It is now in D with a VIN assigned as of a few days ago. I live in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Getting harder and harder to keep waiting.
If this is the Canadian waiting room, I'll join. Placed my order last week Saturday, 16 May. I got my Vehicle Order Number right away from the dealer. The VIN comes a little bit later. I would hope not too long as the factory will be closing, so I assume our Jeeps will be done a little faster so they can retool for MY 2016.
Is the latest news still about the Sept start for the 2016s? Congratulations on your delivery date being so close. Has your Jeep left the factory yet? I'm curious if our travel times are longer due to the border.
Welcome to the Forum from Southwestern Ontario.
I was initially looking for a Hard Rock and I quickly found out that Canadian dealer were not able to order a HR. And the Hard Rock that were on the dealer's lot didn't have the options I wanted. I end up ordering a JKUR on April 28 and it went D1 on May 16.
I was looking at some Canadian orders and some people are waiting since March !
Good idea, someone should set up a Canadian waiting room.
St Catharines, Ontario DarkStar. Are you going to the Jeep Beach event June 28th? Nickel beach Port Colbourne. As this is my first Jeep it will be my first outing.
If you guys seriously want to turn this thread into the official Canada Waiting Room, you should send a note to the moderators to change the thread subject line to make it easier to locate.
I take it they wouldn't give you the order sheet confirming the order either. That's a piss off they aren't even giving you an explanation. If he has so many on order why didn't he just have a few on the lot. I don't have any other ideas. StarBrite would know more about the process and might have suggestions on what to ask so you get an idea where you stand. If you haven't yet, read the first page of the 2015 Order Waiting Room thread. Explained a lot to me. Good luck and hopefully your order is in and the Jeep is being built soon.
I'm from London Ont. I and the dealership put in my order on April 30...the dealership told me 8 to 10 weeks for delivery 2 door JK Sport hard top in Tank green.
My salesmen checked the status of my build and it is still in the BX I believe they called it meaning accepted good order...waiting(excruciating) for the next step.
Funny thing is when I was in there I asked another salesmen(mine was busy) about finding where my order-build status is at...he told me that a higher up manager had the authority to log in and find this info out....when my salesmen was freed up and arrived,I asked him about my order-build status and we went into his cubical-work area and he logged on and found my build.....(or lack there of)...status....sooo seems like a bit of a disconnect on the finding status info.....I wonder if my salesmen is looking at up to date order-build status info....or.....does he only see that the order was good and accepted...but to find current up to date status only certain people have this access at the dealership.....guess I'll have to ask this question on Monday. The wait is driving me crazy LOL!!!!:atomic:
Cheers,
Bill.
You can also call 1-877-IAM-JEEP. It's the Jeep helpdesk.
As long as you have the VON or the VIN, they can look it up for you. They're patient as they're used to dealing with crazy Jeepers.
Did you ask your dealer for a vin vision report? It gives you a projected timeline of the build and delivery. It all can and will change but it is info. If you don't want to bother the dealer call 1-877-IAM-JEEP and see if they'll give you one.
I also ordered a 2DR Sport B. Mine was ordered a few weeks later then yours (I ordered May 3).
I'm going to have to talk to my sales guy and see what the order status is now. I was hoping mine would be D or D1 status by now, but from sounds of the progress on your order, mine is still likely BX status as well...
This whole waiting thing sucks, haha.
