Build status thread for Overlands with Tech package

I think it would be helpful for those of us waiting for Overlands with the tech package to know the status of others. I ordered mine more than three weeks ago (9/18). Also ordered mineral grey and saddle interior. Still in "C" status. I called jeep customer service today and they had no idea when it would go into production or be delivered. Anyone with the tech package in anything other than "C" status. :mad:

So, while I didn't order the Tech package, I'm guessing from other's experiences that my Jeep ordered 10/4 that has been in D Status since 10/6 doesn't have too much hope of getting to me anytime soon, does it?
 
#208 ·
I really hope they get moving on all these Overlands we all are waiting on. I told my dealer today that if I didn't have my jeep by 90 days I was canceling the order. He was very...well let's just say he became very accommodating. Now he says if I don't have one at 90 days I can have one off the lot until mine comes in. Something makes me think he doesn't expect it to take more than 90 days.....

I've just about decided that if I don't get a est ship date by the end of the month I going to start looking into getting something different. I REALLY don't want to get anything but a grand but me as well as the wife are getting feed up with the lack of communication from Jeep.

I called Jeep for additional information on my build, which is D1 with estimated delivery of 12/12. They say the estimated ship date is 11/30. Of course, IndyBob has been D1 for a while, is still in D1 with estimated delivery in just 3 days.... :rolleyes: Indybob, have you called them for an update? Is it actually built yet? Milous, have you seen "tech packages" coming down the line???

No, I have not called the Jeep number. My thinking was that Milous would have the same, if not more current info. My dealer told me 2 weeks ago that his system showed a ship date of Nov. 16th. I didn't put much stock in that.
 
#223 ·
Finally went to D1 today with Estimated delivery of 12-08-2010. ACC package but no Saddle interior (not my cup of tea). I'll keep my fingers crossed.
 
#225 ·
Hope my mineral gray overland with acc goes into effin production soon since it's a full month ordered before some people on here getting their d1s about now... Lucky bastards :)
 
#227 ·
Another days goes by....more D1's.....just not me. I just don't get it.
 
#232 ·
:clap:
That means you are the first to have the tech package! Don't pull a DJWeaver on us! We want lots of information on how the system works.... :thumbsup: Congrats man!

Will these 2 features be standard on our vehicles if they aren't built until next week?

So I just got off the phone with Carol from the Jeep support center. She told me that she has called the plant manager for the Jefferson facility and they (the support center), have been promised updated information and build dates for the September orders by Monday or Tuesday of next week.....So I guess we will see. I'm not holding my breath.
 
#236 ·
Thanks for the info but I'll believe that when it happens. At this point I don't really believe anything they say...:mad:
 
#239 ·
I called today and was told I was either a "soft" or "sub" schedule...I couldn't tell which she said. But I did note is was differnet from the "ready to proceed to the line" I've been told the last 3.5 weeks.
 
#241 ·
Maybe that's what she said....and also said she didn't know what that meant....Hopefully someone can shed some light on it....good or bad.
 
#243 ·
My Overland with a Tech package has been built an is in "I" status. :D I hope to be avoiding bad drivers before long. ;)
Congrats! I'm so jealous. I ordered the same configuration without the off-road package. It looks like I ordered one week before you, but am still not to D1 status. At least this give me hope that some are getting through.
 
#244 ·
Sounds like you guys are having better luck than I am. My dealer told me today that my order has reverted from D1 back to D, although Milous' the tracking page doesn't reflect that yet. I've been kinda wondering what's going on since orders with the same options (Overland, Tech, Hemi, OFAII) put in half a month after mine, are now being built or even completed build.

I've seen others with even longer waits, but I've been assuming they ordered theirs with the unicorn horn option (even later availability).
 
#245 ·
^^honestly I don't think we will ever understand what order they choose to build in. It's certainly not the order they received them for sure.

I talked to a customer care specialist today....wow. He actually told me less than than anyone and seemed annoyed that they transferred me to him. All but said it wasn't his problem and that the dealer needed to be handling these types of questions.

Called the dealer and he says I'm D status and it will be on the ground around the 15th of dec.....but I promise you he has absolutely no factual information to back that up, just trying to get me to shut up about it.

I let them know that if I don't get an estimated ship by the end of the month I'm buying a Tahoe and they can keep there jeep when it comes in next YEAR.....sad that such a nice vehicle has such bad customer service...
 
#246 ·
I also went "I" status today. Tech; ORAII; Panoramic Sunroof; 5.7. I skipped the Unicorn Horn Option..:lol:

Ordered 10/04/10
Estimated Delivery: was 11/22/10 now 11/24/10.

I was told yesterday at 5:30pm that I was in Paint "P". (11/18/10)
I went "I" before noon on (11/19/10)

gl to those waiting!
 
#249 ·
I'm now back to "c" according to the dealer..sub firm from my previous firm schedule....
 
#251 ·
^^Yeah my dealer told me I'm C status and that he promises I'll have it by mid dec....I see no possible way that will happen. I was D status....looks like I'm actually moving backwards now. Somethings holding my jeep back, but I have no clue what. Dealer claims there are no restrictions right now.
 
#254 ·
So I got a call from my dealer tonight and was told that I am now C status as well. I was told "We are really hoping by Christmas."
I've been hoping that too, but I'm thinking that isn't going to happen since the average delivery time is 20 days. I'm still hanging out in D1 (according to Chrysler's 800 number and Milous) and I'm 3 days past my est ship date.

But who knows, there's a few folks that ordered in late Oct and early Nov that have had theirs built already and shipped, while other from earlier orders haven't. Just wish I knew who to bribe...
