Still getting calls, emails, texts on this one 
Just got off the horn with Courtesy Dodge in Tampa. They thought I should know about their fantastic new deals on this sweet ride.
I told them I’d be highly interested at $39 a month. They thought I was joking 
How many trips to the shop does that include?
It’s sad, I see people in the Facebook groups all the time asking about lease deals and I have to be the bearer of the bad news that they missed the boat. Overall I’ve been very happy with the car despite a few issues. Haven’t really had anything major come up, never been flatbedded and it hasn’t bricked in a shockingly long time. Had an airbag error come up that required service and I asked them to install the most recent software update RSU. They refused and told me I would have to pay for it “since I didn’t have any codes” which was total BS, besides an RSU doesn’t require active codes or anything like that, they just didn’t want to do it. Dealership service is definitely hit or miss on this car.
I enjoy the car too. It is definitely unique and worth what I am paying for it.
anyone lemon this thing yet? I’m on service trip #2, cumulative day 7. Red wrench of death has hit me at least a dozen times in 7 months
Not yet… mine has been in the shop for a month now, it’s supposedly ready to pick up tomorrow. This time it was for the usual gremlins plus a piece of roof trim that just decided to fly off while I was driving. I’m probably close to 2 months out of 12 in service. I love the stupid car but I’ve definitely been in talks with Stellantis about my dissatisfaction regarding overall quality and reliability. I’ve named her Valerie after the Mark Ronson/Amy Winehouse song, and for good reason.
Garnish moldings flying off deserve a NHTSA complaint. Automakers need data to initiate recalls or claim recovery from a possible supplier defect.
I filed one immediately after I realized what happened. They have been in touch with me.
So they fixed the roof, allegedly performed a software update but didn’t do a whole lot else besides say “we can’t replicate the issue” for every other issue I mentioned. Considering that over the course of the past month the car moved around 5 times and never exceeded 15 MPH I’m not surprised that they weren’t able to replicate anything 
. I’m still worried about running it through a car wash again and getting the hood to pop and make the car go into turtle mode.
Our Wagoneer S has been a giant POS. For example, someone at the factory seemingly didn’t install a snap ring on the front right axle and it almost came out and caused us to lose control. I was surprised when the dealer told us that. We’ve had a number of other issues too. Even in perfect order, it still drives like a wet rag. Not worth the low payment.
