This is not unique to Chase. Of the "big 3" cards that offer Priority Pass Select (Amex Platinum, Citi Prestige, and CSR), only the Prestige automatically sends PP cards to all holders. On the other two, you have to enroll separately.

It's not just about forgetting. This is a duplicate benefit which many (most?) Reserve cardholders already have from another issuer. We do not need, and would not use, another Priority Pass membership.

just another data point. Still have not received PP card. Today I received my GE card in the mail. Which means that I have applied, been approved, interviewed and now received by Global Entry card BEFORE I have received my PP card even though I activated my PP membership first.

I don't think there's anything you can honestly do but be patient. I wish that was more helpful, but it's what I perceive as the only option.

As for my AU: her card did not come in the same envelope, so we are waiting for that. Called Chase as she has a flight today..with 4 guests
and wanted to use the PP benefit (pretty much the only use for shelling out $75 for the AU). Chase rep told me she should use my card. We'll see how that works out for her. Truthfully, her group doesn't really need free booze before a flight, so I'm not too bent out of shape if she is denied access.

Does the authorized user get a separate Priority Pass card to use by themselves ?
My SO and myself will be taking slightly different itineraries later this year. We'll be together for 2 flights, but not together for 2 other flights.
I know the PP membership covers guest if the primary card holder is traveling - but what if he/she is not ?

OK. Maybe that is why they charge $75 for the authorized user, then. Haven't added my SO to the CSR yet, but maybe it's worth it. All the airports for all our upcoming flights have PP lounges available, except at CDG - I will be flying to/from terminal 2E.
