I am NOT applying electrical tape to any part of my new $83K car. You best believe that bitch is going to the dealership to get fixed.
The Stability Control has everything to do with shocks. I would take it in and have that cable replaced so they don’t blame you for it later.
TexasDragRacingVideo I agree 💯 with ⬆.
Q
At the end of the day it's just another Chrysler
Just get it fixed. Forget about not wanting to do anything crazy, get it fixed asap!
813Productions same thoughts. 83 grand? I wish I would resort to electrical tape smh
Awesome looking Hellcat the suck having all those pissy little Gremlins after paying 83,000 for it! Cool car but there's alot of cool car for less don't get me wrong I like the Hellcats , I ll never afford one, it just seem they would have tested it better for the money.
Esc does have to do with shock,stability as in suspension. Take it to the dealer.
ESC does have to deal with the shocks.
I agree,the "ride control" is the adjustable part on your suspension , your SHOCKS,that is why the wire is running into them.It is hooked to a sensor that detects lean in the car and corrects with pressure.It may have only detected the heat in the wiring but I would replace it.MAKE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR TO DEALERSHIP THAT YOU ARE ANAL,AND WILL BE CHECKING THERE WORK!!!
The money is in the motor, the rest they slap together which screws you over with the minor bs.
So true
I agree 100%! It was always Mopar Or No Car for me but these Hellcats are good looking and fast piles of shit--no offense.
It's that Dodge/Chrysler calling card?
$60k is for the engine and transmission placed in a $20k car..
Rick Daystar wrong. Rear diff had some issues for wrong fluid installed on assembly line. We barely ever touch them at dealers.
Have a 2016 , I am returning mine As well , with only 3400 miles on it.
How the hell can you return it? I know it's still in warranty, but how can you return it? You can't just take it back to them.
NICE RIDE! I used to transport cars and certain cars with stability/Suspension control can be damaged when you chain them down. We were told to disconnect the system to keep from damage. The transport person most likely didn't re connect when he delivered it to the dealer...
of course shocks are affected. take it to dealership and have fixed
That’s why I just bought the 09 jeep srt8 plain and simple no electronic issues and it’s always on sport 😁
Carlos Leonardo wait till the differential acts up.....
El3jmii thanks for the reminder man time to service the differential next week 🙌🏽
Stability warning aint coming back... that wire was the culprit... i would take it back to the dealer tho and let them tell mi what they ganna do about the wire... it they tripping then get a shrink wrap on it...
It’s a lot of money it should be perfect
That thing was $83k? Holy god, why not wait four years and buy it for a six pack
+Andrew Peters if you watch my latest video you will understand why its not a big deal.
Andrew Peters LMAOOOOOOOOO a 6 pack
this why niggas are broke, own no businesses and have to depend on the white man for a job.
My buddy has had his hellcat for about 8 months and has not had any issues. Yours will be fine. These are minor ,quickly fixable problems. Good luck in mexico
Yes the wire does. The stability control and shock system are tied into 1. I had an 09 avalanche with the air ride from the factory. If the system isn't getting a signal from any one of the sensors it will throw the code.
Can you order a Challenger without all that GPS-computer stuff on middle of the dash? It would be cool if you could delete that when placing the order and have a coin tray or something instead, but yeah getting back to the problem, definitely take it to the dealer to correct all those problems underneath.
well the wide body and the regular hellcat got slight differences and this is the first widebody they came out with so it does make sense youre getting problems
Exactly
manny si niño si😀👏👍
I'm 42 and I have owned just about every brand, Currently I own 2004 ford 4 valve, it just flipped over to 171000 I have never had no issues but plugs and coil packs,and I drive it like I stole it every day, for you chevy guys my z71 has over 300,000 miles stills runs and drives likes a dream I've never had any luck with Dodge, except for the older v-8s which seemed to be very reliable.
Good video. The same thing happened to my 2017 SRT8 Charger. It was rubbing up against the tire and I had it replaced. I thought about putting tape on it also but then I realized that if I did fix it and it happened again and they saw tape on it they might try to blame me. Plus 717 his Hellcat was 15 and it had a manual transmission and he had a lot of problems with the transmission. Good luck
Absolutely love your car! Don't give a second thought to the haters. The latest Challengers are all a blast. We have a '17 392 Hemi Scat Pack Shaker and have ZERO regrets. Great car!! Enjoy that Widebody!
You are quite adept at picking nits, congratulations. The 2nd little shock is the gas reservoir for the shock. Your wires are most likely what controls compression and/or rebound damping by controlling gas pressures.
Reminds me of manufacturing standards in the late 1970s. We bought cars that had a half eaten sandwich in the door, the rear view mirror fell off and the window crank came off all within 3,000 miles.
Nice Wheels on the Hellcat. ESC system needs to be scanned for hidden dtc's. Your shocks are liquid magnetic shocks controlled by voltage from the ESC Module.
Congratulations you played mechanic for a day I deal with this shit all time
Will regret buying a Dodge it will fall apart.The market flooded with them bad investment
trans am please. This coming from an obvious Generic Motor Crap fan and we don’t need to go into detail of GM’s Quality
Kristopher Klassen
I couldn’t have said it any better
Kristopher Klassen gmc is cheaper to fix easier to fix and rated with higher reliability dodge was always rated last on consumer reviews fuck u and dodge
Donovan Hunt gm isnt a brand name for a car gm stands for general motors so they buold motors and other parts for car companies
Yes that wire and shocks are a big part of stability control. ASE mechanic for 22yrs currently work for large Chrysler dealership in Cincinnati. Get the wire relaced the coating has been breached. it will begin to breakdown then moisture will enter and warning message will stay on. What that wire does is automatically stiffen and lighten the shock when stability control is activated.
+Steve Pilkington thanks man , I'll definitely get it fixed
I removed the Dodge logo on my 2016. Put a Punisher skull and crossbones with AR-15's sticker between the the tail lights and then did a matte black vinyl wrap over that and all the glossy black plastic and tinted the reverse lights with Luxe. Turned out really good it's really subtle but the skull and crossbones look embossed and the shiny plastic is all covered.
that sounds pretty cool. dm me a pic of it on IG @jmc9981
I really haven't had any issues with mine except they had to replace the gasket on my supercharger but that was done perfectly in the car is being great love it!
How did you know the gasket needed to be replaced? What were the symptoms?
had a 2014 charger r/t. took it to a muffler shop and had the resonators removed. the left rear wheel sensor immediately "failed" after the work. It was replaced under warranty.... but. It was perfectly fine till it went to muffler shop. This fault caused my transmission not to shift out of 1st gear, and the dash was lit up like a Christmas tree. Once a new sensor was on it, no other issues.
it's been one thing after another with my JK ...geezzz! hope you get your issue get fixed on your Hellcat
If you buy a dodge, or a jeep or anything dodge related... get use to fixing them.. My Brother has a 2017 Jeep, at 4,000 miles coolent started leaking. Radator was gone.. At 4,000 miles!!! He took it back to the Jeep/Dodge dealer, talked to one of the shop guys, and he said "Yup, Dodges and Jeeps, keep me working all the time, and my 2001 toyota 4 runner takes home and to work every day with out fail"
The wire is for the adaptive ride shocks... Its will set a traction control light or esc light, after a few good trips/key cycles will turn stored and turn off warning light.
Replace the sensor at the dealership not a big problem!
5 year chrysler mechanic
This is one of the first hellcat widebody of many, since when have any car been perfect especially if you have one of the first made
Yeah just one more time. That cold start is satisfying
Yes!!! Stability control has to do with shocks. Please take it in.
im a mopar dealer for temple hills MD and i"ve seen that issue twice from the factory. They are making the same wide body until 2020 but now they sell the demon and they hellcrate.
Those wheels are awesome. Look great on the car.
My 2018 charger scat pack has the same warning pop up and I have 200 miles on it heading to dealer next week I have seen this issue pop up with many owners on forums.
So, dodge cant tighten ground wires or properly route wire harnesses.....but the exhaust sounds great....
Pretty quiet exhaust
That's awesome American craftsmanship that most folks had forgotten when they switch over from Japanese cars. Deja vu folks.
Hey John : The more I look at those wheels the more I like them.
don't know much about the hellcat, but does the fender flares make it a wide body?!?! i thought wide body was new quarters and fenders that stuck out more then factory
those wheels are fucking beautiful tho
Yo, God bless you bro. Your Hellcat wide body is of the chain! Take care of the vehicle. I have have to start a the bottom of the Challenge line up and hope for lottery money to have a Wide body lol
sounds like a beast
Think about it shock stability control shock stability control I would say they are related not too hard to figure out shock sensor stability control
I love those wheels too!
The cable prob shorted out and it has everything to do with the shocks bring its under warranty
Dude, I just bought a new 2018 scat pack 392 shaker and a couple days after having the car I got the same exact alert about the electronic stability control and I hit the details button and it didnt show me shit and to this day I haven't seen it again and I've had the car for exactly a month. Sounds like it might be a bug or I'm going to get under my car tomorrow and check that cable to my shocks to see if its rubbing on my tire also.
My dad has had a dodge truck for 20 years and only replaced the transmission. And i had a ram 3500 that i let sit for 2 years and it runs fine
In 1990, I built a 70.5 AAR Cuda with 440 for $8,300 - it was turning high 9's at Bowling Green, KY...and was streetable. My guess is, for double that, I could still build the car today. The Hellcat is a pretty car, but it's not $85k worth of car, by a long shot - and I've owned and drove Mopar all my life.
I got me a 4000+ pound Dodge last year now driving a reliable Honda. 😁😁😁
Makes you wonder what other cables might be loose and rubbing where they don't suppose to be rubbing, I would return it for wire replacement and I would tell enough to please double check all wires because that's free and all because of guarantee but wasting your time ain't free.
Good video...I thought you explained things well. You have a couple GREAT rides! And you look good in the Hellcat!
Its crazy the amount of views you get with little subscribers! Just found this channel. Loving the content so far buddy!
I've always loved the challenger, I had a '15 Challenger SRT392 and would have an '18 widebody hellcat if the quality was even semi reliable. After the 22 service calls for my 392 for some reason they still wouldn't fix the damn thing so I lemon law it and took my rather large check and ordered a '17 Camaro ZL1 that not only beats up the hellcat it WORKS!! This thing hasn't given me even a hiccup, flawless operation and the 10 speed auto is awesome. Easy, bolt on upgrades without opening up the engine or affecting reliability as it's my daily driver. In south florida the experts in late model GM V-8 upgrades is REDLINE MOTORSPORTS, who pushed the LT4 in my ZL1 from 650hp at the fly to 735+hp. It easily handles hellcats and in no way am I dissing the MOPAR universe as my last 3 cars were HEMI Charger and Challengers, I hope they take action on the reliability issues because those cars are very cool, comfortable and fast.
I'm a mechanic/technician, with 38 years experience. The rear shocks and the wires that connect to them are definitely part of the electronic stability control system. Even if that conduit did not wear all the way through, the friction caused by rubbing on the tires could have melted the insulation on the wires inside, and caused a short circuit, causing the warning. Remember this is all digital stuff, and fairly fragile. it needs to be well protected. It's even possible that static electricity from the wires rubbing on the tire caused the error message. I also noticed that the insulation looked shiny where it was worn. is there a metal jacket underneath the outer material? And remember, while it says Dodge on it, this car was built by Fiat. For that reason, I am considering a Mustang GT (for about half what your Challenger cost. I don't have $83,000) It seems to have fewer problems than the Challenger and the Camaro. But it too is loaded with electronics, and electronics and cars are not a good mix. A car is not a good environment for fragile digital electronics, and they are prone to failure.
If I remember well, the only thing that was great on my dodge ram was that starting noise.... by the way, water will find its way there, if you see no metal, cover it with liquid tape then use that electric tape after dries out.
Remember you purchased an ultra high performance, low volume car. The fact FCA can offer 707hp with a warranty is amazing. Would have been unheard of 10 years ago.
This is why race cars are rebuilt after every pass/race. They were never intended to be daily driven over pot holes on the streets and all the other road hazards.
liquid electrical tape works great for the worn wire.. and its U L listed...black red maybe even other colors..thought id mention it :)
In 1992 I bought a brand new Eagle Talon AWD Turbo (192 whopping HP:) and they forgot to put transmission fluid in the rear axle, it seized up and came to a skidding halt, I was so shocked I couldn't comprehend what just happened..I was going thru a toll booth, imagine if it seized up while I was going 80 mph? So, the mechanic asked "did you ever do anything to it? Because it appears that it never had transmission fluid in it" There are probably other methods for quality control with all the computer scanners and robots but like that dangling wire, it helps to get it under a lift and take a look yourself.
thats crazy
Just a quick observation. In the video you posted about Ordering the 2018 Widebody Hellcat (7/28/17) showed a promo pic of the Widebody car in Burgundy. It has the exact same rims you have on your car. Love the rims. Perhaps you did get the correct ones.
Yes i got the right ones , i just thought for some reason that the demon and widebody hellcat had the same wheels.
Who cares how much money u spent u got new car bugs
I think you are on the right track. I believe you are thinking wisely
Of course the error is connected to the damaged wire, I would definitely take it in and have it replaced.
Yes the shocks are apart of the stability control.
Hey brother thanks for the your videos, I really enjoy them. I love the widebody myself, I love it so much that I went out and bought a red one last week. This car looks incredible, the wide-body looks so much tougher than a regular Hellcat with the wide tires bigger rotors in the fender flares, just so sexy. Thanks again for your videos brother I really enjoy them get a lot of information from them. Keep them coming!
Thanks bro and congratulations on your new ride. If you have seen my latest hellcat videos you already know these cars are killing the competition. I have lots of fun with mine and so far its solid
JMC RIDES that's why I like watching your Channel, you use your car the way it supposed to be used and that makes me smile every time I watch. I used to be a Navy SEAL and I used to smile every time i jumped out of airplanes and I haven't smiled like that for a long time, until now. Everytime I get behind the wheel it makes me smile and when I hit the gas it makes me freaking laugh... Thanks for getting back to me I appreciate it love your channel and good luck with your wide-bod -day !!!
If you like shooting and guns check out my channel Frogman 405
Thanks for your service. And i just subscribed to your channel also. Now i can tell people i got navy seal subscribers lol.
JMC RIDES thanks Brother !!! Yes you can !! Lol
Stability control does deal with the electronic suspension.
I bought a new Ram 1500 and a week later I open the hood to look around and to my surprise I noticed multiple screws half tighten and some wired not clipped properly. WTF
Great color
Yes it does get to the Dealer the longer you wait more problems. Winter is comes and salt gets in to it it could and short computer for the ride control system.
It's under warranty...what is the problem here?
This is a classic example of the more you have the more you have to go wrong. Do active suspension controls actually make that much difference in your ride? In today's market in order to get one upgrade you have to get all the upgrades, that makes me want to buy a more basic model and add the features that I want which is pretty much limited to the engine.
I love the Granite color on the Jeep.
Take it to the dealership and get them to make it right before you drive it. The stability control could very well be related to the rubbed wire. The wire could have been installed wrong and have internal damage. Make them fix it now and don't give them any excuse to deny your warranty claim.
IT DEFINITELY RELATES TO THE ELECTRONIC STRUT ADJUSTMENTS... BUT IF YOU MOVED THE CABLE AND NONE OF THEM TOUCH OR ARE BROKEN, THE ERROR MOST LIKELY CLEARED ITSELF.....
HAD SAME ISSUE ON A 92 STESLTH RT....
thanks bro
The only good thing about the problems is at least you know all the computer sensors are working. Anything under warranty I would get it fixed period!
Great video and I agree I would not want to void Warrenty on that expensive of a car. Plus you wanna put miles on the motor before you hit the track and slip a bearing or something stupid internally because motor wasn’t broken in. Breaking for normal daily driving is one thing and breaking in to hit high Rpms for the track is another. Looks great I would remove the Dodge off of it myself on the back. That wire something you might want to get checked out it’s new And you shouldn’t be having those problems or having to deal with them yourself
thanks man
My suggestion would be to talk to the manager at the dealer as this is a significant quality issue that should be brought to the attention to the factory. I would make them replace the wire personally, you paid a lot of cash for that car and its not unreasonable to expect your wires to be intact. The electronic stability control is coordinated with many systems in the car and yes the shocks are one because of the electronic dampening. The error code should be stored so they should be able to track that down pretty quickly.
If you turn the captions on. When he starts up the car and is pulling it out of the garage. The captions say "music"! And it is true, beautiful music!
+Hayden Briggs haha very cool lol
That wire is an ABS wheel sensor wire, it's to do with the error message on your screen, I'd get it fixed.
you fixed it, you fixed the connection
Problems or not that widebody hellcat is still killin it.
+HouseLightweight thanks brother
the part no on that wire looks like a rear wheel speed sensor part no
What beach were you driving on in the end of the video?
+Sani Bravo smithpoint beach
I'd say the wire does because stability control has to do with detecting rolling the vehicle as well. So it may check the suspension movement. On another note. Any Chrysler / Fiat product is at very bottom of reliability list against all manufacturers. Check consumer reports.
Of course that wire has everything to do with Stability Control. Where do you expect Stability Control to be, under the Drivers Seat?
If you choose not to get the cable fixed, at least put some silicone on it to keep moisture out of the cable, instead of tape. Nice car !!
10:15 i noticed the left side of the trunk is not aligned, it looks like it's higher on the left. Sad that all I've heard is bad build quality from American Manufacturers.
Traction issues?
Well you can still park it ur driveway and be the coolest guy on ur block
I'm all for innovation but looks like your next set of shocks should be non smart shocks! Lol
Lmafo...my bro bought an 09 challenger r/t and the first time he did a burnout in it the a/c pump exploded and destroyed the engine bay...the manufacturers of all these disposable razor cars are laughing all the way to the bank😂
use ultra black silicone not tape,use a q tip to apply
It is saying the battery for the shocks are low
Use ducktape will stay on longer and is safe for electrical.
Friendly suggestion, a new car, regardless what it is, will have problems...keep track of any issues takes place an get to know your closest dealership, use your warranty!, even if there's a noise that doesn't sound right... 👍
That's FCA for ya
i wouldn't have even moved the wire, I would have taken the car right to the dealer in the condition that it was in. Wire rubbing and all, that way they can see it the way it was found and they can;t blame me or only
+Corey Mayfield i agree with what you are saying but the idea of bringing my new hellcat to the dealer and having them possibly replace a shock makes me nervous. My plan for now is to keep the electrical tape on the wire and see if the problem goes away. If i see that i get another error on the dash i can just remove the tape and put the wire back to the way it was before. The idea of bringing it in to fix one thing and then something else gets messed up makes me nervous 😂
I feel you, better safe then sorry though.
JMC RIDES man, i agree with corey. I feel like the longer you let go on, doctor it, etc... the more issue your gonna have with dealer convincing them that u didnt do something to void any warranty. I would take it to dealer and GIVE THEM HELL. This is no 25k $ car man, dont stand for it, and make them stand behind what they sold you... i want to buy one of these 18’ wide bodies, but have decided to wait now, after seeing several quality issues around.
Corey Mayfield they're gonna say whoever did that muffler delete did it lol
UPPERROOMENT exactly my 05 mustang GT wiring harness for the fuel pump right over the rear axel got melted and they blamed my aftermarket exhaust.
Have 3 Dodgers and NEVER had a problem. Except one, I always win my races.
Dude, 1. tape that portion of harness because the wires weren't actually damaged but tell the dealer to replace that wire harness and that you only taped it till you could make it in to them but tell them how you got it and that it was rubbing, etc. but 2. DON'T assume that error message is from that harness, let them see it, could be a computer problem, I've had three major computer modules go on me on my 2015 cat and they'll probably be more which is why I bought the Mopar extended Vehicle Protection Plan (ABSOLUTELY buy the extended warranty with the Appearance Pack, RELATIVELY SMALL cost, big payoff with one or two costly fixes). Dodge's electronics are notorious for getting squirrelly (not banging on mopar but on dodge yes and ive owned a few).
3. ENJOY YOUR NICE ride brother, don't listen to the haters out there, just enjoy you p^ssy-mobile and enjoy the track. I beat 4 cars in heads up street races in Brooklyn and I didn't START any of them. My HEAVY ass DODGE moves more like a sports car than a 4,400 lb drag car, so kudos to dodge/mopar for the suspension and steering on such a heavy beast. I ate TWO Porsche 911's, one Beemer 760 IL or LI (the latest model) and one benz (think it was an S class by the grill and headlights) - he never got even with me or in front of me for me to see what it actually was. He initially tried to go around me and blast by me to cut me off but never had a chance, I just drop shifted lol he stayed kinda close though so I think it was a 550, 600 or 63. And that was just in sports mode not even track - I have a 6 speed stick and learned how to drive on a stick. I've had hot rods with auto trannis but it's not the same for me.
Listen, bottom line is, take every little issue into the dealer so they can record it just in case it happens again - the lemon law kicks in!
Happy motorin' to all, including all you Chevy and Ford peeps!!
