Hang on, hang on, hang on… I’ve seen the “foam cup inserts” on the EL and online descriptions, I’ve even seen it in discussions here quite a few times.

What are these foam cup inserts? Are we talking about a koozie? I Google “foam cup inserts” and I get pages of bras.

I'm having a ram 1500 tradesman built with power locks locks, windows, ext. Hemi V8 in patriot blue. It's suppose to be 8 to 10 weeks but I went to get update today and its only in D status after 3 full weeks. Seems to me like its going to be way more than 10 weeks. I think they're blowing smoke up my butt . I will not wait past 12 weeks! I am borrowing a JEEP just to get to work. I don't like being lied to. So we will see I guess. It better jump faster than to D in 3 weeks or it wont be available by 12 weeks even.

There have been a lot of Hemi HDs getting pushed out in 7 weeks. I don’t know anything about the 1500s, but I sure would like to find a site for them. My mom has an EcoDiesel on order.

If a order is past the parts gathering process and is in scheduling for build status would that be classified as?
Click to expand...

Build codes.
Unscheduled:
BA – order entered in system by dealer
BB – fleet order only – review by bid department
BD – special equipment processing
BE – edit error – coding error which must be corrected before order can be scheduled
BG – order has passed edit but cannot be scheduled regardless of sold status
BX – good order available for scheduling

Reason Codes:
F – Finance hold – automatic cancellation after 15 days
B – Model or option build out. Your order exists but isn't fully confirmed yet. Plant doesn't know about it yet. Systems are checking the order to ensure it's valid in terms of sales codes.
L – Material restriction
M – Material hold (fleet)
ZA – canceled order

Scheduled:
C – Tentative schedule. Your order is "subfirm". The plant can see the order at this point but it's not fully committed to building as the supplier may or may not be able to get parts to the plant to build the vehicle.
D – Firm schedule: serial number assigned. Firm order. Your order now has a name instead of a number:
D1 – Gate line: unit sequenced for production, est. ship date assigned.
The date is set for your truck to be built. The plant knows when it should have parts sequenced for building and it should start to be built within 48 hours of the date set.
D2 - It's going to be built. The computers are being programmed, materials are being sequenced, framing is about to occur.

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, clearcoated, 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
Get your Build Sheet here: https://fcacommunity.force.com/RAM/s/equipment-listing
(Build sheet input is CASE SENSITIVE)
JB – shipped to body vendor. JB/KZP-The vehicle is sent off site to have a spray liner put in, steps, 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. As you all know, this can be a source of delay. Typically you see two statuses here: Awaiting Shipment and "Staged for Shipment".

You can get your (Monroney) window sticker here (add your VIN to the end) once it's KZ-L or KZ-M: https://www.chrysler.com/hostd/windowsticker/getWindowStickerPdf.do?vin=

Traffic Codes:
KZ L – released but not shipped
KZ M – first rail departure
KZ N – first rail arrival
KZ O – delayed/received
KZ OA – plant hold, quality audit
KZ OB – zone, dealer, sales, vehicle prep, tax, diversion or derailment hold, dealer refusal, vehicle diverted
KZ OC – carrier delay, strike-bound, emission or safety hold, rail car shortage, bad or insufficient load, inclement weather, need shipping order, manifest error
KZ OD – mechanical failure, glass damage, vehicle in repair, lacking parts or storage hold
KZ OE – misdropped or misshipped vehicle
KZ OF – shipped air freight, stolen vehicle recovered, show vehicle, test info code, vessel sailed
KZ OG – damaged vehicle, stolen vehicle, abandon to carrier, vehicle scrapped, donate vehicle, repair and auction

I think they're being built in different locations. The 1500 classics are built in Mexico .The higher end ones are built in Michigan. Mine is a single cab too so it makes it more rare.

Just checked my VIN at the NHTSA website and my truck (Due to arrive 4-14) will be recalled for the Z20 problem. I saw on another forum that the dealer can’t sell the truck until it is corrected. The NHTSA site says “Recall Status: Recall Incomplete, remedy not yet available”. I am not thrilled that my ordered truck may get mothballed on a lot somewhere waiting for a cure… or to be vandalized.

NHTSA says “Suspect vehicles may not display the ESC malfunction indicator lamp under certain malfunction conditions that affect the generation or transmission of control or response signals in the vehicle's electronic stability system, leaving the driver unaware of degraded ESC system performance that is not limiting engine torque during an ESC event.

Safety RiskUnexpected performance of the ESC system with no warning to the driver can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning.”

Only if you get it in writing from your dealer or they are just really nice folks who honor it anyway.

I just experienced this today. Got a quote a few days ago, signed it and send it in today along with the deposit to order and they hit me with a $1700+ increase. My quote was in writing but they said since I hadn’t put the deposit on it pre-increase, they can’t honor it. They did refund my deposit though.
 
Does anyone know for sure if the dealer gets charged for the truck at KZ or are they charged when the truck reaches the lot? My sales rep said they get charged when it gets to the lot but that status sheet says at KZ.

I’d have to say the only way to be sure is for a dealer employee to chime in. It seems to me that you pay for something before it ships, now this isn’t Amazon we’re talking about, but I thought C.O.D. went extinct a few decades ago.

Does this mean mine isn't one in the recall?

It’s not lying, it’s just their best estimate at a very dynamic and complicated process.
