^ This has some information on the Sold Order Protection:
SOLD ORDER PROTECTION
Sold order protection is available when a vehicle is sold to, or ordered for, a customer during an incentive program, and that program will be expired by the time the vehicle is delivered. Sold Order Protection is a Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Program administered by Chrysler Capital. All program rules must be adhered to as listed in the Gold Book. To qualify for the program, please see the Sold Order Protection Checklist located on the Chrysler Capital Dealer Website for a listing of documents required at the time of funding.
The dealer must submit the customer application to Chrysler Capital and notify their credit buyer that the customer’s deal is eligible for sold order protection. Sold order protection is available for consumer incentive programs as of the date of the buyer’s order and deposit or the date of delivery.
In the event that the buyer’s order date and delivery date are in different incentive time periods, the customer has the option to choose the time period for incentives. All programs and incentives must be used for only the selected time period and are subject to approval based on a recent credit report.
Chrysler Capital reserves the right to modify, change and/or amend the Sold Order Protection Policy at any time.
I disagree, anyone can join tread lightly, walk into any dealer (at least the 13 I have talked to) and get an automatic 1% below invoice on any 4xe on the lot.
Data point. Placed an order yesterday here in Scottsdale for a Summit Reserve V8 at affiliate pricing. Anyone looking in Phoenix area, I would be happy to share contact via PM.
I don’t disagree. My experience, however, is affiliate was available on incoming and sold orders. No V8s available so I had to order. Not everyone lives on the East Coast and want to provide additional data points. To repeat, happy to provide contact info for anyone in or near Phoenix for affiliate on incoming and sold orders on GC L.
I am only stating my experience with the dealers i interacted with throughout pa, md and nj. And if you want to be competitive in this format, you have to deal. I know you know that as a broker
