Under warranty? Yeah, but who wants to have to run their car back and forth to the dealership all the time? Some guys have had their car at the dealer 4 weeks out of the 6 weeks they've owned it.

Yup, parts are hard to come by PLUS the dang service manual isn't even out yet!

They had to replace the entire module so I would recommend you take yours in too since there is a bulletin about it.

If this happens to me, I have a feeling I'll be getting a replacement real quick.. One thing I'm good at is getting things moving, especially when the product on hand does NOT work as described.

But here is hoping nothing bad happens

I see posts from those who have had significant issues, but I'm also curious as to what those who have NOT posted, but have had issues may have dealt with. I figure that if enough people respond, we can see if the issues reported are small or significant portion of the cars out there.

Thanks in advance for your participation!

How about bad enough to where they are replacing the car?

Dang Sledge. So sorry man

I am one of the respondents that reported zero problems. A little more info for you... The car was made on December 1, purchased December 29 and currently has 1454 miles on it.

I do thank you all for reporting your problems as you have had me checking paint under the trunk and in the door hinge areas, checking hood alignment, seat operation, etc but so far I have had no problems. Knock on wood.

I lurked on this board for many months and followed the agonizing wait suffered by the people who were in the initial production weeks and I have seen their names often when reporting problems. I am hoping that the later builds have less problems which has at least been true in my case.

Good luck to you all.

Wow! Can you go into specifics as to your problems and how they were handled?

Factorypilot · 02-24-2016, 07:39 PM

Just an update. 92 polled and still 50% of the owners are having problems.

My only issue so far (1600 miles) is the squeaking/rattling NPP valves.

1badrwd · 02-24-2016, 07:57 PM

I too am one that has zero issues so far although I haven't had mine long. Bought my 2ss last Friday. I do have 1,100 miles on it as I decided to drive it on a 800 mile trip I had. Even got my first kill on the trip.

Very impressed with the power this thing puts down!!

After reading all the comments I hoping nothing pops up but I guess I will see. My paint is perfect and everything lines up great as far as the body is concerned! I can deal with a electronic issue here or there as it's bound to happen with everything involving electronics now days. Hopefully nothing major though as it seems solid thus far.

I just picked up my 2ss on Monday and only have 105 miles on it. Don't want to vote quite yet to skew the results but so far so good.
