My Dealer placed a new order for me on Monday and just got the VIN last night. Was told that it is being scheduled for build and should be shipped in 5 - 6 weeks

nice, that is great news if they can ship with 5-6 weeks.
Do you mind sharing what trim/options you ordered?

Just received this email
I would like to take this opportunity to say congratulations on ordering your all-new Jeep Grand Cherokee L!

My name is Jeff and I will be monitoring your vehicle order throughout the build process. I have opened this special tracking file to both help ensure your order is given prioritization through to delivery, as well as to provide you with available status updates along the way.

At this present time, your vehicle is being sequenced for production with all the parts necessary to begin building your order either being scheduled or gathered.

I have presently reached out to our factory ordering team to ensure your order is prioritized for production as well as to gather an estimated production plan timing to share further with you. I hope to have additional news and updates to provide to you soon.

I will be following up with you for your order updates as soon as there are additional updates to share on your order. Additional email responses received will be queued and responded to within this time-frame. If you require immediate assistance pertaining to any ordering questions or concerns, we encourage you to speak with your ordering dealership who is your best resource for any ordering questions you may have related to your factory order.

Thank you for your loyalty and we’re proud to have you as a member of the Jeep Family!

Sincerely,
I received the identical letter last week.

I ordered 3/6 and it is built but they cannot give me any updates or estimate on shipping to my dealer. Very frustrated

I ordered a Limited 4x4 in Baltic gray with black interior. Pano roof, 10.1" screen w/ Nav, Trailer Tow, 2nd row Bench, 20" wheels and Paint protection package.

would love to have had the Lux Tech II package but they are not taking orders with that option right now.

The Luxury Tech II on Limited is a steal for $2300 in my opinion. Just the ventilated seats, digital rear view mirror and 360 cameras are more than worth that price. Sad to see that dealers aren't taking orders with that options yet....

I believe they are close to doing updates on the ordering system to add more options and hopefully remove some restrictions like the Lux for Limited.
I have received confirmation from Jeep on two occasions that Overland with two tone exterior will become available on what they call "next ordering window". The problem is that they don't commit to a date of when this will happen. They just say soon.

It really is!! The dealer I was working with tired adding it to the build and they ordering system wouldn't let them. Then they had one on order for dealer stock that had everything I list above with the Lux tech II that I put a deposit on but it's stuck in BG status ( order has passes edit but cannot be scheduled regardless of sold status), dealer spoke to corporate rep and was told they do not know when they will start to build the limited with the Lux Tech II again because of part constraints. That's why I ordered without.

Can someone tell me what the two letter abbreviations mean for statuses? Mine is a d, what does that mean? And what does BG mean

also, D is the quickest and where you get a VIN assigned to your order. D1 is when you get a delivery/build date.

You still sitting in D status with your reserve? I never got that call I was promised, so I called into customer service and they told me that the manager tried calling me. I had no missed calls or voicemail. I told them to have the manager call me back and if I don't answer to leave a voicemail and they said I would get a followup call on Wednesday. Stil nothing Thursday night. I figure all I'm going to do is learn more info, but I don't think it will expedite my build at all.

I think the issue with all the hold up is for folks who ordered V8. Has anybody seen a V8 GCL move past D1 status? Or an example where a V8 is “in-transit” on the jeep site?
