I will be following up with you for your order updates as soon as there are additional updates to share on your order.

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.

Can you please share a timeline of the various statuses you saw?
I did not frequently check on status or am familiar with statuses but Jeep had been gathering parts for the build from Mid-June to Mid-July. Went into production between Mid-July and the shipment date of August 2nd. Dealer said it has shipped but ETA is up in the air due to Jeep updating their system. Dealer had ordered Rams with TBD assigned delivery dates but they randomly arrived to dealer lots. I’m thinking if it’s the same issue, I should be receiving my L next week.

I have done chat and they asked for my email each time, but never got any emails from them. The likelihood I take this 2021 SR V8 is dropping each day

I will be picking up my V8 Overland tomorrow from the dealer. Super excited.
Congratulations! Let us know if you got all your parts!

My v8 overland was shipped by rail, but for some reason the rail eta for phoenix was pushed back 4 days. Not sure how rail gets delayed? traffic? pirates? nuclear bomb?

Shipping right now is incredibly delayed, including rail. They dont have people to load/unload

I’ve received all my parts. After reading that the air suspension was deleted and credited back for other orders, that was the first thing I checked when I picked up my Jeep. I love it. Hope y’all get yours soon.

Are you getting any info on yours? I think you are from Kansas, I am also, SW Ks. Ordered mine in Wichita on May 3 and still in D status. I wonder how many options will be deleted by the time we get ours? Just curious if you could remind me when you ordered yours.
