Just in case this works, thought you might like the info.

ONCE YOUR ORDER IS SHIPPED

More than likely your Order will be shipped by rail to a nearby rail depot in your state. Once your order is shipped or preparing to be shipped the customer service folks at DC should be able to tell you what railroad your order will be shipped on. If it's already been shipped they may even be able to tell you what rail car number it's on. You can then either call the railroad or go to the rail roads website, plug your VIN number (or last eight) or rail car number into their tracking system, and it will tell you exactly where your Caliber is! It's theoretically possible to track your Caliber all the way to the rail depot in your state! Here's just a couple railroads to get you started.

Union Pacific Railroad - http://c01.my.uprr.com/pet/motorVehicleTrace.jsp
Santa Fe Burlington Northern - http://www.bnsf.com/cws/tracing/index.html

If the railroad your Caliber is being shipped on is something other than the above. Just do a search and you should be able to find a website for that railroad and at least a phone number to call.

 

Are you actually able to call without having a VIN number? If so, how? Do you just tell them your name and the dealer you bought it from?

In your situation, they may of already had one build like you wanted and it was just sitting on the lot at the assembly plant. Hopefully that will happen to me.

Congrats! I'm glad to see you got it! Hopefully mine will go through quickly and I can have mine as well. I'm excited to get it.

When did you order yours again?

 

Congrats 04StratusR/T on getting allocation and yours ordered.

That is awesome!!!!

Later

You need a VON (Vehicle Order Number), from that Dodge can give you info on your car. You get the VON from the dealer. Then number to call at Dodge is 1-800-992-1997

 

I gave them my VON, and the operator already knew my name and told me my Caliber is in transit. Thats all I needed hear. Did you call today for a status update on your Caliber? I know you ordered yours on the same date as I did. I t should be a matter of days you would think. Oh, I ordered mine 5/1/06.

 

I need to get the VON from my sales rep first. I didn't have time today to call and ask him. I'll try tomorrow and then call the Dodge Info Center and see what the status is. I think you just got lucky with yours and I'll be waiting until July for mine.

 

When I called my dealer to get the VON my sales rep said my car went into "D" status. So its in the schedule to be built. Hopefully it goes into D1 Status very soon. I also have the last few digits of the VIN number now as well.
