2023 Dodge Challenger Hellcat tune turns into a $36,000 repair bill - Autoblog

A 2023 Dodge Challenger Hellcat owner made a warranty claim over a broken engine, but a PCM code that can't be erased alerted Dodge to void the warranty.

The Magnuson-Moss Act says they can't void the warranty unless they can prove that what you did actually caused the damage. This seems like that wouldn't apply.

There are only a few of them in existence. So many innovations like rear engine, all wheel drive, flush glass, electric doors, swivel seating in the rear with a table.

I'm still trying to see one in person. That and an Auburn boat tail. Hopefully they have one at the Orlando Auto Museum, I'll be going there next month.

If its still there, whenever I used to travel to Trailerhassee for the UM game, there was a great auto museum right off the interstate.

Right at Ocala is the Don Garlits Museum. It's the one with an A7 on a pillar out front. Also in Ocala is National Parts Depot. The owner has a private museum with around 200 cars, and he puts 6 or 7 out in the lobby and rotates them. He also has the first and last fox body Mustangs to roll off the line.
