Brand new. 370 miles. Waiting on a tow.

Brand new. 370 miles. Waiting on a tow.

Car gave me multiple codes including "service transmission". Let it sit for 30 and came back to it, now its completely bricked and I cant even get inside.

Dealership is across the street but 1. Made me call for Chrysler roadside assistance which wont get here until after they close and 2. They don't have any rentals right now.

So I'm stranded without a car after barely owning this thing for a week. Thought $33k on a 70k car was too good to be true, now I'm seeing why.

UPDATE: Roadside was able to jump the car. As others suggested, the 12v battery was toast from 2 years of lot rot. Will get it replaced and fingers crossed no more issues.

Is 2025 rt with 18000 miles worth it at $29k?

I test drove it and couldn't stop smiling at how absurd it was. It will be the second car for a 5min work commute, my wife drives my other ICE vehicle

6th time my rt is going to the dealership.

Yep, my 25 rt is down again. Electrical issues. Car accelerates like a semi truck and surges forward while braking and a underbody panel is hanging down. I can't wait to get this thing lemon lawed.

Why didn't they attempt a hybrid version?

Between the center tunnel and empty space on the hood, they could've definitely copied the e-ray.

Which begs another question, If there ever was a hybrid, do they do it like e-ray for all wheel drive, or sandwich the motor between the engine and the transmission to support rear drive only?

Water in the car after carwash

As the topic suggests, I recently ran my 24 scat through the carwash, went to clean the rear floor mats and they were all wet on the bottom. Wondering if anyone else had encountered a problem like this. First time I've encountered it and I usually was my car weekly for the past 2 months.
