 I bought this with a clean title from an older guy in New York. The car was undercoated and it looks like it saw little to no snow. The car was hit in a parking lot and has some damage to the front passenger side. It runs and drives great. Alignment was just done and it drives great except for a cyclical sound coming from the rear passenger side (either a wheel bearing or CV joint) which is the reason I have stopped driving it. Turbos make full boost with very little spool time (needle lifts at 2k, close to full by 3k-3.5k). I was very nice to this car, but the turbos and four wheel steering are handy for lane changes. A/C works great. Everything in the interior still works including the Active Exhaust, Electronic Control Suspension, Cruise, Four-wheel-steering, etc. I had the windshield replaced last winter due to cracking (I turned on the defrost right before spooling the turbos, the vents are cracked so it doesn't spread heat evenly). I also replaced the front tie rod ends, wheel bearings, both front ball joints, and I installed new stainless brake hoses (all 8). The front discs are new, drilled and slotted as well as new semi-metallic brakes all round. The cat went out so it has a test pipe in now which sounds awesome. I just can't afford more work on it (after replacing bearings, balljoints, rotors and tie rod ends) and have a separate daily driver I have been using. I am planning to move out West soon, and have an old hot rod so one vehicle had to go.

Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.

Dodge Dart Mopar '13 special edition recalled over airbag woes

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Dodge is only building 500 examples of the black-and-blue Mopar '13 Dart, but the majority of them are now being recalled. Part of the Mopar upgrade included replacing the stock seat skins in the Dart with black and blue Katzkin leather, but the seat-mounted side airbags were reinstalled improperly during the upfitting process, which could affect the performance of the front seat side airbags.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, a total of 374 Mopar '13 cars are being recalled due to side airbags that might not deploy in a side-impact collision. There have been no reports of the airbags not going off, but Chrysler will still need to reinstall the bags to ensure proper deployment. The recall notice is posted below, which gives information for Mopar '13 owners to contact Chrysler and NHTSA.

Indications of 825 hp and emissions issues for Hellcat called 'speculation' by Chrysler

Tue, 16 Sep 2014

The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is probably one of the hottest cars of the moment mostly because of its insane, 707-horsepower supercharged V8. However, there are conflicting reports coming out that the powerplant might be having problems with its emissions compliance and may be capable of even more power.
Jalopnik says that an unnamed source within Fiat Chrysler Automobiles told it that the Hellcat was having problems meeting emissions standards at its 707-horsepower tune. The person claimed that the automaker has been testing the V8 with different types of sensors, possibly to make it a bit cleaner in the future. Autoblog spoke to SRT spokesperson Dan Reid, and he said about the claimed poor emissions, "It's totally speculation."
The source also claimed that the Hellcat had been dynoed at a monumental 825 horsepower, internally. Based on the other rumor, though, it's hard to imagine the engine being emissions compliant like that. Autoblog also asked Reid about this speculation about more power and was told, "They are totally speculating about that."
