    A gear drive would be nice. With flat gears, it would be noisy but not need thrust bearings/washers.

    Go to another brand is what you can do. It sounds to me that they did a permanent fix and not a band aid fix by putting in better parts and not the original parts? Or not?

    Isn't the Challenger SXT V6 Penestar engine the most reliable engine out of all the engines offered on the Challenger model? More reliable and less problems than V8's? 5.7 and 392 engines? which have the Hemi tick early valve lifter failures and issues with MDS automatic transmission V8's using the "ECO" mode to run on 4 cylinders? :Frustrated:
