I have a 2021 Widebody Challenger Redeye with less than 2700 miles. I followed the break in instructions and have had the car a month. Last night I remote started the car and heard a misfire and there was a strong distinct gas smell. This morning I took it to the dealership and and told the Intercooler has a leak into the cylinders. Parts are ordered blah blah blah. Anyone have this issue or any advice. I am livid.

Zellcat,
I'll be watching this closely with you. Being that you, me, and another individual ordered our RedEyes the same day. I'm concerned I may end up with the same issue. After all my RedEye was built within days of yours. I already have a less than satisfactory cub holder leather install that the dealership should get fixed this Thursday....hopefully. We'll see since they fought me on it initially, said FCA declined the warranty claim and the dealer said it is "American mass manufacturing" and this is acceptable quality.

By the way, that's closed!

They need to check the cylinder(s) with a bore scope. My 2019 Redeye SC IC was leaking into 2 cylinders, and the bores were scored, lost compression in those 2 holes. Entire engine is a loss. Replaced under warranty.

Thank you! They ended up fixing the Intercooler. My concern is.. what’s next. I do not know if they checked the cylinders with a bore scope.
