I'm thinking no one here is part of the 6 people. Also I don't think the rear made the value drop
Maybe the fix should be Dodge putting Per4mance braces on them:)

Hmmm, only ones 'exploding' I've read about were at the track - perhaps I've missed something ??

I eventually had the 'rubbing sound' & the dealer replaced the rear fluid under warranty & added friction modifier, have had no issues since.

I thought the whining had to do with the way the gears themselves were cut (more of a race cut than typical passenger car) ?
Mine have always had a slight whine, it's never really bothered me, but then I don't really hammer mine as much as others do ;)

IF I was going to sue over an issue with these cars, it would either be half-shafts that can't hold a boot together or the SC whine.

Meh, I've already taken the stock unit out and put in 3.90s, so I'm out anyway...

5 hours or so I could have the stock rear, DS and axles back in mine

Sounds like a group of future Prius owners to me! some people just look for any way they can get something for free.

Well...financially.. I guess some would say I don't really need to work...but it really hasn't been about the money for a while now...and by no means am I a workaholic..but I have no compelling need to alter my situation..

Whoever the Plaintiffs’ attorneys are, they are a bunch of dumb shits. The TSB referenced was for the half shafts and not even the correct TSB that replaced differentials when they were determined to be “howling”. I am not in, and I have had two Hellcats, a changed diff on the ‘15 and recipient of many half shaft failures. Shit happens! Can’t wait for my $3.95 share of the Class Action Suit settlement that pays the dumb attorneys who filed for THEIR time, and gives the owners squat.

I never said it was about the money, Demonman. Cmon now. Some people like you and me don’t work to pay bills. We work to make a difference. To maybe do things we wish could’ve been done for us. I work to support my friends and to be able to afford a place my friends can stop in and decompress, or grab a bite to eat if they’re a little low on funds. I work to help the people out there that can’t afford to take a car to the shop or wanna learn how to do the job right. I work to make sure my dog lives his best life. I work to make sure that I am never a burden on anyone but myself.

There are tons of reasons to work. But when you love what you do, especially as much as you and I love our lines of work, people won’t fully understand it’s not about the money. It’s because we like to work. Some days it’s easier to go do mindless work for me than to try and sit at home with my demons. Other days it’s easier to work in the garage and tinker.

at the end of the day, we all have reasons to work hard like we do. Be it money, family, to afford fancy hobbies. A reason to work is a need to work. And when you no longer have those needs, then you don’t gotta work. 🤷🏻 Hell, if the Mrs. really doesn’t wanna work anymore, maybe you ought to plan a nice vacation and take her to the Islands.

Plenty of time to do that remodel of the shop, buy a couple new cars, so on. And when she comes back angry, just make her think the heat changed her mind! Lol.
