Only Elsd was missing. However, when it was ordered, the paperwork showed a $400 credit which later was identified as being for the Elsd. Other than that, everything is good.
Did the dealer agree to the affiliate pricing prior to ordering? Can you walk away? There are several dealers that are willing to knock off thousands from MSRP even without affiliate pricing.It's here! Carmax REFUSED to match Carvana or any other offer we had. The dealer is not budging on anything either- won't accept the affiliate pricing at all. I just feel like I'm getting screwed each way to Sunday
I know as of 10/1 the GCL is no longer eligible for the affiliate pricing: https://www.fcausaffiliates.com/content/dam/affiliate-rewards/docs/ProgramRules.pdf
Even without that I was still able to secure 4% under invoice for our factory order on a 2022. I had pricing for 7% off invoice (3% off invoice, 1% for affiliate, 3% FCA financing) good until 9/30 before the ineligibility went into place, but we opted to wait until we could order the 2022.
That's a great price. I ordered in August and the dealer agreed to sell me a GC L at affiliate pricing. I talked to him today and asked if he would still honor the price since the GCL is no longer eligible. He said I am grandfathered in. Not sure if that means Jeep will honor the affiliate pricing or if the dealer will just honor the affiliate pricing. I guess I don't care either way.
What dealer are you using to get 7% off invoice? That's the best deal I've seen yet.
Criswell Jeep in MD. They regularly post their below invoice deals on some of the other Jeep forums. That 7% turned into 4% off invoice on 10/1. As of 10/1 they offered me 1% off invoice pricing and another 3% off if you finance with Chrysler. The dealer we went with, Chapman Jeep in PA, offered us 4% off with no financing requirements through Chrysler.
FWIW, I got numerous offers around 4% off after 10/1, with the best at 5%, but 1% of that was tied to Chrysler financing, they had higher dealer fees and were 12 hours away.
Hmm, I ordered a Summit V8 on Aug 17. I wonder if mine will get flipped to a MY22 too. What trim and options did you order? Do you have a new VIN yet?
We ordered a SR V8 Baltic Grey two tone and fully loaded. No VIN as of yet. They said they will let me know as soon as they do. I believe production is/was to start Nov 1st. We shall see.

JeepCares just sent me a welcome letter for my yet to be built 2021 SR V8 Baltic Gray GCL that we ordered 16 Aug.
So . . . guess I am still getting a 2021 Model Year FWIW.

It doesn't make sense why some orders (sold and stock orders) are getting built and shipped before earlier placed orders.

Jeep gets a bunch of parts at random times. When they get a set of parts, if it allows them to finish a vehicle they build that one. So it’s like rolling a bunch of dice to see whether they just happened to have the parts to build your car at the same time. And it’s probably complicated by the fact they build assemblies before building the final car so there’s probably a few dice rolls involved at various stages.
Has your dealer mentioned anything about the price adjustment between MY21 and MY22? We ordered a MY22, but our build was ~$2k more compared the same build MY21. This is for a SR.
