Interesting too, my base price on my Summit 4x4order on May 3 was $58,995.00 When the removed the ESLD on August 3, it went to $58,595 and confirmed build. Then on August 9 in went back to D status from D1. Today, August 19, the base price is $59,155 !!! Figure that out????

Any chance your 2021 is now a 2022?

Had not thot of that, his current print out still has old VIN number and still says 2021

It would be interesting if you ended up with a 2022 or with the sensors needed for hands-free driving which are being added to the 2022's but yours was still a 2021. Wonder what the hell it could be.

My dealer said there wasn't any notes attached to our build about the suspension, showing it in Paint, but our MSRP went up $200 from $70,445 to $70,645???

Adaptive or semi-active systems can only change the viscous damping coefficient of the shock absorber, and do not add energy to the suspension system. While adaptative suspensions have generally a slow time response and a limited number of damping coefficient values, semi-active suspensions have time response close to a few milliseconds and can provide a wide range of damping values. Therefore, adaptative suspensions usually only propose different riding modes (comfort, normal, sport...) corresponding to different damping coefficients, while semi-active suspensions modify the damping in real time, depending on the road conditions and the dynamics of the car. Though limited in their intervention (for example, the control force can never have different direction than the current vector of velocity of the suspension), semi-active suspensions are less expensive to design and consume far less energy. In recent times, research in semi-active suspensions has continued to advance with respect to their capabilities, narrowing the gap between semi-active and fully active suspension systems.

They increased the price of the Reserve pages by $200 from $3000 to $3200. My guess is that was the change for you.

If they pull the adaptive dampiing system and the elsd I am out. This is ridiculous. I ordered in may. Was in D1 and went back to D. Dealer knows nothing. Honestly I have had it. I’ve owned countless FCA vehicles. Currently own a gen 5 viper, 21 ram 2500 and have 2 more rams on order. This is not a way to treat customers. @JeepCares, do you care???

I agree! I’m hoping that since ours is in Paint and our MSRP is that high that our build still has the adaptive dampening. 🤞

so maybe someone can help me understand the adaptive dampening thing….it seems like this was referred to interchangeably throughout PR material since the GCL launch in January. if anything, adaptive dampening (comprised of air suspension and semi-active dampening) was only going to be offered in the Overland model. So, ai can’t seem to tell if this is just an update to words on a window sticker, or if we’re actually getting something less than we were before. https://www.forbes.com/wheels/features/2021-jeep-grand-cherokee-l-first-drive-review/

Yes I have the same question…… the WIKI that was posted above was informative but i would like to know what are we really missing. Is the ride quality going to be different? slower to react?

@JeepCares can you give the group a quick overview of the recent changes in wording that folks are noticing on the window sticker with regards to adaptive dampening vs. semi-active dampening? we’re genuinely curious.
