Start of 2023 Production

[bigdodge]

Certainly makes sense if it was a software issue. Can't imagine continuing to pump out thousands of vehicle that have an improperly fitting part.

they can and do it all the time
factory workers know the tricks to installing parts left off

I'll take a free "downgrade" to the 7" cluster lol

Heck I just wanted the free Dremel my old one is about worn out!

Well, if they suddenly ship a 2023 RAM Limited - DREMEL tool addition we will know it's not a good thing

New Member - been following this thread since it opened. We ordered a 2023 Longhorn in the ivory tricoat mid-Aug 2022 and received the email from Ram that our order was received on Aug 20, 2022 - since then nothing. Dealer originally told us it should take 2-3 months and to expect the vehicle in Nov or December. Obviously that's not happening. It's been helpful to share the long journey of waiting with the rest of the group. Thanks for continuing this thread.

According to @triple_B's updated chart on page 1, Ram issued three build sheets for granite trucks! Looks like the granite drought is ending. Wonder what trims those are.

All three were Bighorns.

Yay for me! This will be my first Ram. Grew up a Chevy guy but my mom’s family were always MOPAR. My grandma still drives Chrysler minivans and she just bought herself a 2021 Pacifica. Dominos pizza app estimates delivery January 8th. So we’ll see….

Stopped by the dealer on the way home, my normal once a month visit. They have free coffee and snacks . Anyway asked if they know anything about the delays with the 2023 and for a new POC status. They said they have no information on production problem other than supply chain stuff. The new POC states the same thing as triple_B tracker “D1” status. The only odd thing is that is has an estimated ship date of 2022-12-14. I guess in a perfect world that would be sending out next week. Just goes to confirm that they might be having production issues.

For the past year or more the estimated ship date tends to be the day you start production, so be looking for build sheet around the 14th.

Awesome, thanks for the intel triple_B! Or should I say Ram Santa 🫣

I think they had some sort of software issue when UC5 rolled out in 2022. I think the trucks got built and once the software issue was sorted they basically went through the storage lot and updated firmware/software/whatever and then shipped the trucks out.

For the cluster I've seen folks mention a software issue and I think a fitment issue, but there hasn't been a lot of info about it yet so not 100% sure on that. So hopefully it is just another run around the lot and apply a fix and get the trucks moved out. I'd assume an issue requiring a run back through the assembly line would cause a complete stoppage on building those trucks as that would be incredibly inefficient.

Hopefully not sitting around in lots for long, with batteries draining in the December, Michigan weather.... we already know these factory batteries are weak af

Ordered a flame red ,night edition ,big horn, built and shipped and a white, night edition, Rebel currently being built according to the website , on 9/7/22 ,supposed to be at dealer mid January .

I also have a White, Night Edition Rebel, ordered about a couple of weeks after yours. I'm just in D1, no ship date yet, but based on your info maybe mine will be built in the next couple of weeks. Maybe (?) I'm not looking for mine before sometime in January, either.

HOT! - 2023 RAM TRACKER

It was becoming overwhelming trying to keep up with the large number of VINs being posted all over both the RAM-TRX and 5thGEN Forums and the confusion of the 2021-2022 tracker/submission forms linked everywhere as well. Here is a link to a new sheet for the 2023 year model with all current...

www.ram-trx.com

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**
