Waiting on my new license plates

I bought a truck in NJ about a month ago. It was the best deal in a 100 mile radius. My temporary tags expire tomorrow and the dealership tells me they sent the info to the CT DMV 5/30 and I just have to wait. They’re behind in processing paperwork. Dealer said they will cover a rental car or pay my fine if I drive and get a ticket for expired tags. Anyone else have issues getting CT plates when buying a vehicle out of state? Not too happy to sit my new truck in the driveway, unable to drive it legally through no fault of my own. Dealership has been less than helpful, refused to return my calls for a week as I inquired as to the whereabouts of my new plates.
