2015 scat pack with 7,800 miles just started to get vibration in front end and steering wheel at 85 mph and above . Havent hit any pot holes or speed bumps , tire pressure correct . Im bringing it to dealer to ck balancing , alignment and front end . Was wondering if anyone else has had this problem.

In the past that sounds like a wheel weight thrown or something out of alignment. Today's cars, hmm not so sure.

It could be a flaw / defect with the tire - a cord or ply could have separated or delaminated within the tire itself.

Great post, RS !

My dealer didn't add all-season tires on my 392 Hemi Scat Pack Shaker, so I canceled the order. He was also charging me way, way too much and said they won't consider making a deal to switch tires.

I found another dealer, but he said I would have to wait to get the 2016 Challenger.

Can you please, please let me know if you've heard when the 2016s can be ordered? I am disappointed that I was so close to owning one, and I am back to being on the waitlist.

I am pretty sure the order date for 2016 starts August 17.

You ordered a Shaker SP and canceled the order because of the wrong tires???? :scratchhead::scratchhead::scratchhead:

Why can't I see my window sticker or build sheet?
According to SRT chat, my car left Brampton, in transit to my dealer by July 6. So wouldn't that be KZ status? Shouldn't the build sheet and window sticker be up by now or is there a normal delay?

MN-scatpack question

Not sure what date 2016 orders will be accepted but am sure the last of 2015 orders are due as we speak. In fact, some colors like the sublime green have already been discontinued for 2015 models. I understand there is a b/o on transmissions. So the August date will probably be correct.

I want a Hellcat

This will probably sound like I'm a nut but I am planning on trading in my 2015 SRT on a 2016 Hellcat Challenger as long as I can make a reasonable deal with my dealer. I hope the August order date is good. I would like to be first in line.

Not sure that will work out for you... looks like you are upside down on your SRT! :grin2:

I paid cash for my SRT so it just means I might have to fork over a little more for a hellcat than if I would have order one in the first place. As it is I never would have gotten one because of the backlog of orders. My dealer just refunded the down payments on several in June. This way I at least got to drive a car for a while. I've already talked to them on my plan and I didn't get any bad vibes on cost.

I'm thinking he meant "upside down" based on the condition of your Challenger in the picture :D

But if color isn't a deciding factor, would you be opposed to a 2015 Hellcat that might be sitting in a showroom when the 16's come rolling in? Might be a bit harder to find, but I'm sure you'd be able to work a better deal on a 'new' 15.

One source said August 10th, 2016 order banks open up. Can anyone confirm if they did or not?

If I recall, back in 2011, there was someone on this forum that was able to provide a link to the Dodge build web site that was different than the regular site. The regular site only showed the previous year. On the link, you could build the next years model.

Is that available anywhere?

I went in to order a H-Kitty this morning. Dealer couldn't do it.
OK, thanks, guess we will need to get someone to report in on the 13th. I hope some dealers are reading this.
