2022 Defender Stop/Sell?
#43
We all need more and clearer information on this...
Just to relay my experience in the last few days: I sent the recall notice (thanks MrBreeze!) to my salesman yesterday and today he replied "Your MY22 D110 SE is not affected by this recall. It will be ready for you to pick-up as anticipated within a day or two of arrival at our dealership".
Mine was built on 5/13 and delivery is scheduled for 7/9... on a ship to Brunswick right now. My VIN falls at least in the last 7 digit numeric range on the recall notice, but doesn't have the "darkened tail-lamps" stated in the recall which are on X units.

Uh, oh. My VIN is SALEP7RU7N2069448, which appears at least from the last 7 digits to fall in that range. It was built 5/13 and due to be delivered 7/9. I wonder if I'll still be able to take delivery? Still not showing any recall on the NHTSA website (not sure how up to date that is). Anyone falling in the VIN range been able to take delivery in the last few days?

@nightsun : If you have the VIN go to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration's site (https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls) and plug it in. If there are any recalls, the manufacturer has to list it and notify NHTSA very fast. If it's not in there, then the Dealer is playing games. If you don't have the VIN, make sure the dealer gives it to you.
EDIT: Or.... during the PDI process they found something specific to your vehicle that they have to cure. Some of them have issues. They do a full inspection, get the vehicle ready for you and sometimes they detect something missed or that occurred in transit. If it doesn't come up on the recall, this may be the culprit. In either case, the dealer should be communicating.

We picked our base model up last week on Wednesday and no Stop / Sell issue when it arrived at the dealer the previous day. It originally was going to be 6/18, then it changed to 6/4 then it changed to 06/11, then it changed to "sometime between 06/11 and 06/18. It come in on 06/15 and we drove it off the lot on 06/16. On the 18th we had a check engine light on. Took it in and in 30 minutes a "reset" for some fuel pressure issue resolved it.. Notice over the weekend that the gas gauge on the digital dash two gauge view is not working and showing full tank (with only half actually remaining). Other view with small gas gauge works fine. Also the Start / Stop function stopped working after the dealer visit on Friday. We will be back in again for service again this week. Need to work the bugs out as we are taking 2000 mile roundtrip up north (from south florida) on July 3d.
