I have been researching the Trailhawk version for a couple months and now in talks with the dealer. I want the MySky no matter what but cannot find any in the US as of 5/18. The dealer is telling me that I need to special order what I want which may take up to 5 months. Now granted I have no problem doing this since I have in the past although it only took 8 weeks before with my Liberty. My question is does anybody know if any Trailhawks have made it to the US with MySky? My other concern is that if it's going to take up to 5 months, I would think that's to late into production and Jeep will already be on it's next years product line.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

Do a forum search on MySky...you'll see a whole lot of info.

Personally, I heard it would NOT be available in the US until the 2016 models. So if you're being told 5 months to get one, that seems to backup what I was told. Others have been told if it's in the system for ordering, it should be 4-6 weeks. Others have placed orders with MySky and their cars are sloooooowly going through the various stages/codes going through production.

So in short, nobody knows...least of all the dealers :(

A few on here have ordered a car with MySky but the order wait time is likely closer to 16 weeks. It will be July or August before those cars arrive at the dealers. As far as I know, nobody yet has received a car with MySky or with a manual transmission.

Ive ordered my TH with the power MySky about 4 weeks ago. The dealer said it would take about 8 - 12 weeks. If it takes longer, I shall tell him to keep it and wait for the 2016 models. Also, it was a Canadian dealership.

Hang Ten,

Thanks for the replies. I am trying to weigh the pro's and cons on ordering and waiting that long or just waiting for the 2016 models. I just know I would like something before winter. Decisions, decisions...

You and me both. I'm going through the same thoughts.
I can...
1-get the Renegade now (Probably not in the color I want, nor with MySky, Trailer Hitch, etc) or
2-Patiently wait till the end of summer/fall to see if new shipments start coming in with those options.
3-Really wait till early or mid 2016 when most come in with those options and the kinks have been addressed/fixed. or
4-Torture myself and wait till 2017 when Fiat does the refresh and most likely introduces the CommandView / MySky glass version.

But I honestly don't think my Hyundai Santa Fe can last another pot hole canyon / brutal NYC winter.

Two different General Managers at 2 different Jeep dealerships told me that Jeep told them that the glass roof version would be out within one years time, as in less than one years time. Give em time to work the bugs out and wait for the glass roof version.

Well I went ahead and called the dealer today to order it. I am giving them the $500 deposit Friday. I was just really wanting it before winter so I didn't want to wait any longer. Now lets hope it makes it here.

Looks like I'm dumping money into my current POS to keep it running into 2016 when I can get the Rennie I want.

*sigh*

This is so disappointing.
Your not alone, I'm right there with you, I'm nursing a leaking intake gasket. The Kseal is holding for now but if it gives out I'm looking at a $1,000-$1,500 repair.

Think I'll try to hold on for the 2017 model in 2016 or the refresh 2017, which would be the 2018 model year.

Oh, heck, by then the new Wrangler will be out, decisions, decisions...

I see several members that ordered My Sky & Hitch option who's orders just went to JB status.... they all ordered Mid April. It will be interesting to see how long it actually takes them to get them, as I don't know of anyone that has received their order yet. I'm kind of gauging my order off of their time lines to have some idea of what is happening with my order.
