I was close to trying something like that!! I was days away from pulling the pillar trim off,
dropping the dash, and pulling apart the cluster in that order cause the sound was so pronounced in that area.
I had already given up on the outside and under the hood..
i wanted to skateboard or rollerblade while hangin on to the drivers side while my wife drove (skitching!)

LoL..Yeeup the tolls are out of control.Then again so are the gas prices. Lets not even get started on it. Glad you found something outside TBTA. As far as turn signals are concerned.. Do you have an RT? My rant regarding turn signals was RT being a higher trim and no turn signals on them or even power folding . C mon. Least they could do. Since my kumho rep convo is a non topic lets discuss the rattle I guess. Who has gotten rid of it because I still have and yes I am ready to rip apart the A pillar. Even though its under the hood.

yes a 2013 R/T - with mirror turn signals
thats why I thought u had a 2011. I thought 2012 had the mirror signals...

Even tho I dont care that I have them, I'm much more pissed that they didnt offer cooled seats/nappa when i bought and no standard heated steering wheel!! really ? but I have heated seats and mirrors!?!

You might be interested that my 2013 also came with GoodYear all-seasons not Kumho's - So Dodge changed for some reason...

Also my mechanich has an '11 or '12 that came with at least 1 or 2 badly made Kumho (not round, flat spots, among other issues) and Dodge and Kumho basically pointed fingers at each other and nobody would help him.
He does the alignments for Dodge dealers around here so he threatened to close their dealer accounts and charge them retail! So he got them to buy him new tires, non-Kumho!)

Now pleaae stop closing one of the tubes just because its early, mid, or late in the day...especially late, Those are the times I keep getting stuck trying to get in the lincoln tunnel, take me 20-30 min or more at 11pm-12am from NYC TO NJ and yet theres hardly any volume!!
All entry points squished into a 1 lane bottleneck!!

My 13 r/t came with both Goodyears and mirror turn signals, but also very frustrating that I can't get cooled seats and a heated steering wheel, not that I wanted it but just the fact I cant have it annoys me, LOL....But would love the cooled seats my buddy has them in his Ford F150 and they are very nice. Also I have no rattle !!! Thank baby Jesus.


PortA 5/0, Happy Police Memorial Week, Thanks for your service Brother !

That's why I originally just went with the Citadel. I despise all the chrome, but my 2011 came with GoodYears, heated and cooled seats, heated wheel, turn signal mirrors. Not sure why they couldn't make that available for all.

I'm considering having my chrome painted over cause it is blinding on a sunny day.
