Maintenance wise and yea it came with the manual
Watch both coolant recovery tanks for coolant loss. Always check cold.
Check oil level weekly for oil consumption.
Oil change every 6mo/6K. Pennzoil 0-40W PUP & MOPAR Oil Filters. Keep records.
Check the Air Filter Element and Cabin Air Filter. You can back blow the Air Filter. You can wash and reuse the Cabin Air Filter. If you can see sunlight/trouble light/flashlight thru the filter, they are good.
If you plan on keeping the car, get a Complete (bumper to bumper) Extended Warranty before the end of your 36/36... unless you are rich. A complete motor is $20K+ & a complete trans is $8K+. And then there's all the Electronics. HCs are performance cars and have many more parts that can fail... get an Extended Warranty.
Might consider installing Power Stop Z26 Carbon Ceramic Brake Pads on all 4 corners to eliminate brake dust.
Best!

Thank you so much!
Might also check to see how much brake pads you have left.
Also, re-check all lug nut torque to 110 or 115 Ft. Lbs. This is critical. Loosen all one at a time and re-torque...
Any tire feathering??
Wheel Balance @ speeds of 70+ ??

Ya, check lug nut torque twice for the first 150mi. 111 is spec, I do about 114. I'm not doing ext warranty but for a used car, DEFINITELY! I assume you have all 3 fobs. There is a dirt/sand trap on the body structure inside of the front wheels, you can't really see it unless you remove the wheels, but once you know where it is you can stick a hose in it and flush it out once or twice a year. There is a thread somewhere on this. Welcome and good luck!

Post pics, only thing I say is if you have the Pirelli's get rid of them, check the tire threads for the type of ride you are looking for, the Pirelli's suck. If your rotors are original they need to be checked.
