Start of 2022 Production.

well my build had a Est delivery date of 02/09 on my POC, so even though i hate ram chat i decided to check today! they said i was in trim stage. so what is trim staged considered? the interior, and the build sheet pops when the build is done but before the accessories are put on?
any help is appreciated
Here's a write-up that triple_B did on the TRX forum:

Build:
E – Framing. Metal is welded together to form the body and frame. The body is inspected at the end of this step to ensure it's within tolerances.
F – Paint. The metal is coated, primed, sprayed, clear coated, polished, inspected, and hand finished if necessary.
G – Trim. The engine is installed in the chassis, the interior is installed, the chassis is mated to the body, the bed is put on. At the end of this, your new vehicle is built.

Built:
I – unit built, pending final inspection. Your vehicle goes through a battery of shakedown tests and measurements are taken to ensure the vehicle looks and performs as expected.
J – Vehicle passed final inspection but not released to carrier
** BUILD SHEET BECOMES AVAILABLE**
JB – shipped to body vendor. The vehicle is sent off site to have a spray liner put in, steps, graphics etc.
JE – shipped to emissions
JJ – consigned to body vendor
JS – shipped to storage
KZ – released by plant and invoiced. The truck is ready to be shipped. The dealer is actually charged for the truck at this point and can be a source of delay. Typically two statuses here: "Awaiting Shipment" or "Staged for Shipment"

**WINDOW STICKER BECOMES AVAILABLE**

My truck was scheduled to be delivered to my dealer between 2/7 to 2/16. I've driving through the dealer's lot every day since Monday, hoping to see my truck there. This morning, I decided to check with Ram Chat, because my salesman told me that the delivery info was so inaccurate that he stopped tell customers of when the expected delivery time is. Well... What does he know... Per the Chat, it showed that my truck was dropped off at the dealer 7 am. (MT) today. I drove to the dealer during my lunch break and what do I see...!!!! Unfortunately, I can't take it tonight, because it still needs to be PDI'd etc... Tomorrow can't come soon enough !!!

Ahhh.. you are probably right. However, the truck is still in shipping model (deployable step is not coming down, air suspension is not working) and all the plastic protective sheets are still on the various panels and trims etc... So, maybe a few more things to do, but it needs a good wash, there was mud splattered inside the engine bay, and undercarriage. Tomorrow is going to be sunny day in Salt Lake City, I needs to see that white pearl sparkle.:cool::love:
 
Anyone know if Ram chat will tell you who your carrier is when the truck has a ride? or do they just tell you "that it shipped?" and follow-up question: the guys that know already, how did you find out? Was it just crap-shoot chuckin your VIN into those 2 sites? (pallsapp and cassens)

I didn't get anything from the chat except that it had shipped and a delivery estimate all the way until the dealer called me and told me it arrived.
 
Got my WS 2/8 and got this from my dealer yesterday. Apparently it was originally supposed to get to Mira Loma, CA yesterday then would have been to the dealer by tomorrow, but the dealer is showing a 2 week delay now. This from the storm out east maybe?
Hi, I also got my WS on 2/8 and I'm in CA as well. My dealer is telling me it's going on rail to Mira Loma as well. Maybe our trucks are hanging out together talking about their new lives in CA! How did you get that screen shot with tracking info? My dealer is telling me it should arrive in Thousand Oaks on 2/23 or 2/24. Thanks, Rick
 
I too have had the black screen on several occasions, along with the front speakers popping and crackling when I open the door until I start it, and if I put the truck in tow/haul mode, it'll throw a code and go into limp mode when I apply the brakes (code U0402). Shut it down and re-start, limp mode is gone. Other than that, I'm loving the truck. I don't have a lot of miles on it, nor have I had a chance to get it into the dealer yet. When I do, hopefully it'll be something simple, but with my luck, probably not ...
Hey, my truck is doing the exact same crap…… did you make it to the dealer or figure out what is causing this ?

Looks nice, congrats.

I can’t wait for mine to come in. I spoke to the dealer this morning and he said it is still sitting at the factory waiting for transport. He said it might be a while due to the driver protests. I sure hope not.

that is from the dealer connect program all FCA dealers have access to.
 
Picked her up today, and I have to say, she is a thing of beauty. 😍

Does anyone know how to find your Dealer # so you can track your vehicle on the Cassens website?
