    Anyone hear when the 22 builds will begin…..Ordered my 22 RT in November. Still no word yet other than D. Asked dealer-who I’ve been with since 09 ..They don’t know. No word from regional representative I guess I’m going to wait until March 1 then cancel …pick up a 21

    I know of someone who ordered a Scat Pack Widebody on 11-12-21. He got a VIN from his salesman about a month later. A couple weeks ago, he was informed that it was in D1 status, with an estimated build date of 2-15-22.

    Another guy ordered a 2022 Challenger 1320 on Nov 13, 2021. It is in D1 status with a scheduled build of 2/21/22 and estimated shipping date of 3/8/22. Unfortunately, there was a price increase of approximately 5% on the base price ($2,100).

    After Brampton builds a Challenger, it must still go to the Upfit Center, in Windsor, for stripes,
    shakers, T/A, hood pins, black-out, interior appearance group, etc.

    Here are the factory letter codes and what they mean:

    • BA: New order that hasn't been checked
    • BB: Review by fleet department
    • BD: Special equipment processing
    • BE: Edit error
    • BG: Passed edit n/a for schedule
    • BGL: Edit ok parts unavailable
    • BX: Passed edit available for schedule
    • C: Sub firm - Tentative schedule
    • D: Firm schedule - dealer has allocation and all parts available
    • D1: Gateline schedule - scheduled to be built
    • E: Frame
    • F: Paint
    • G: Trim
    • I: Built not ok'd
    • J: Built ok'd
    • JB: Shipped to Upfit Center (for Stripe)
    • JE: Emission check
    • JS: Shipped to storage
    • KZ: Released by plant , invoiced
    • KZL: Released - not shipped
    • KZM: First rail departure
    • KZN: First rail arrival
    • KZO: Delayed/received
    • KZOA: Plant holds
    • KZOB: Zone/distribution holds
    • KZOC: Carrier delays
    • KZOD: Carrier holds
    • KZOE: Mis-shipped vehicle
    • KZOF: Show/test vehicle
    • KZOG: Damaged vehicle
    • KZOH: All other reasons
    • KZT: Second rail departure
    • KZU: Second rail arrival
    • KZX: Delivered to dealer
    • ZA: Canceled

    New here. Wondering if y'all have a vin tracker like they do over in the Ram forum, to help those that order get a better idea of ordering processes and expectations.

    I did just order a scatpack, and wondering if the salesperson was acurate with his 16-20 weeks guesstimate. Lol

    My wife and I ordered a '22 Scat PAC Shaker Widebody F8 6M, hood pins, sunroof, Carmel interior, Hellcat spoiler. Was just told it will likely turn into a '23 model. My question is does anyone know anyone at Dodge as my brother was told that Dodge will build brother's who order Challengers consecutive vins along with interior plaques. Any truth to this??? He is going to order the identical car to ours except PCP color when the '23 models open up for ordering.
