Most likely April 14-21, depending on which date they want to go with for the Job#1 date ("official" start of volume production). April 21 seems the most logical, as that has been the scheduled date since very early on. Keep in mind though that they always run a handful of vehicles ahead of the Job#1 date, and some or most of these will reach the retail market.
Chrysler will issue a press release at or slightly after the Job#1 date, announcing that production has started, and will most likely include a photo of the "first" or first few vehicles to roll off the line on that date. Believe me, this day will not go by quietly, they will want to make sure the automotive world and its enthusiasts, and of course the customers, know that production has officially started.
