Don't walk, run to a different Dealership.

That Tech. does not know shit from Shinola.

A different Dealership will perform a re-flash and update the TCM software. Hopefully that will fix the issue.

yeah, what Booky said! I had same issue, dealer replaced the 2 paddle shifters and did the TCM flash. not one false shift since, and I constantly use the manual mode and paddle shifters. it also doesn't hurt to have a star case number.

It was very apparent within the first 40 seconds that I was not going make any progress with this "head technician".

Yes I went straight to another dealer. They acknowledge there is an issue so they ordered a new paddle shifter. It will be repaired soon. But I'm gonna wait till I get my car back to celebrate.

If I were you, after this is all done and your Hellcat is fixed, I would make sure to send a copy of the video you took, a link to this page, and a copy of the repair the other Dealership is performing to the Service manager and General manager of the first Dealership and see what kind of response you get.

LOL that tech. is a tool. I'd have said, OK let's try the same thing with one of your new cars on the lot to see what happens.

I would have told him to get the #*&K out of my car and make him walk back to the Dealership.

Update:

Rydell Dodge helped me out a lot. Took care of ordering and fixing the car.

I've been driving it for 2 days now and haven't been able to get it to down shift with the + paddle.

They ordered part 5RP88DX9AC
