With all this I am concerned now that I will have rattles, squeaks and noise which did not exist prior to this debacle. Not to mention, I sure would appreciate some complementary oil changes or compensation considering they have had the car 3 weeks!! Comments???
I'm having the same problem right now on my 2017 Dodge Challenger TA I've taken it to the dealer ship three times they have changed the battery, alternator, cluster and the radio since it was delaminating. I got it back today and I noticed the the shifter and the cluster lights where still on. HELP

I'm having the same issue right now on my 2017 Dodge Challenger TA, so far they have changed the battery, alternator, cluster and radio and it still hasn't been fixed.

Everything except the part that actually controls the lights.... Sure, that makes perfect sense.
