AWD? Anybodys guess, but general rule of thumb, I'd say about 3 months.
How do you like that for a guesstimation?

I have a 300C on order since June 8th made D status on Sept 8th and has not moved since then. They started limited production of the AWD'S in mid Sept. trying to fill the back orders. The problem was a vibration in the front end at low speeds in the AWD with the Hemi powered engines. Production was halted from June until mid Sept. to address this problem hopefully they have it fixed.Gary25 said:I ordered my new 300C AWD from a North Jersey dealer on Sept. 9th.

We ordered our AWD on July 29 and just recieved word that it should be at the dealer within 7 days. Production of the AWDs was suspended in July and August and did not start again unitl 9.9.05.Gary25 said:I ordered my new 300C AWD from a North Jersey dealer on Sept. 9th.

The issue over the summer affected AWD models. The problem was a vibration in the transfer case when driven at low speeds (as in parking lots). There was very little concern over drivability but production was halted for two months until Magna Drivetrain corrected the problem. AWD production at Brampton was stopped in June and resumed late (very late) August. It has since all been corrected and orders are being filled.Gary25 said:Why did Chrylser stop accepting orders for 300C AWD during the summer months? My dealer said their was a parts problem with the AWD system and their computer system would even allow him to back order it unitil the bigging of September. If it was a parts issue, does anyone know what critical part was causing the problem or was it a design rework issue?

I had placed my order in May (I was the second one to place an '06 order at that dealer). After waiting for over two months I started digging into the reasons for the delay and became more patient after understanding the issue. I spent too much time researching my next vehicle purchase to bail on my order. Finally, I received word in September that my car was well underway being built. After the excrutiating wait, my car was delivered November 2. It is beautiful: 2006 300C AWD Silver Steel w/ Dark Slate Grey interior. Well worth the wait. I love it.
Anyhow, an AWD order shouldn't take more than 8 weeks now. Keep your eyes peeled. Chrysler will be offering 2 years of fuel in place of incentives. Of course, per usual, it probably won't apply to a 300 because they are selling so well.
