RE: First Problem with the car
sorry gang....
so dealership called me Thursday to tell me they couldn't duplicate the issue.... then the service guy laughed... I wasn't in a haha mood but took it in stride, he did have some good news. With the other car that was in, due to his build date, there was an open TSB for a crankshaft position shim.... so they contacted Chrysler tech line and they auth'd the same TSB for my car as well. I left the car overnight so they could install the part and I picked the car up Friday aftenoon. Anyways I've driven her pretty hard this weekend and couldn't get it to go into misfire mode..... however I'm not counting my lucky stars yet.... but so far the shim may be what was needed??? We'll see what the next couple of weeks bring, the roads here are pretty dry so opening the car up hasn't been too much problem,

RE: First Problem with the car
UPDATE: Been driving the car for a couple weeks now and no issues to report, car runs like a top, and has been shifting and running good, no hesitation to report. The other chally that was in for the same issue also reports no problems since the fix.
So far so good,
