Default Hellcat Down!!!

Does anybody know how to get a PCM quick . My 2020 Daytona Hellcat is at the dealership needing a PCM replacement under warranty . It’s going on 3 weeks and idk how much longer I can take it.

Is it under warranty? (I would assume so....) If that's the case, then you have to wait for the dealer to source one, if you want your warranty to remain intact. Otherwise, you can probably go to your local parts store, and have them get one for you.

Hhhhmmmm.... I can see why they wouldn't warranty an aftermarket PCM, however, I don't think they can legally void the rest of your warranty for that..... and if you install the mopar pcm, when they finally get one..... That should be the end of it.

Having the car you are making payments on, sitting at the dealer, because they can't get parts, seems to me, they should do SOMETHING for you. Might call the Chrysler customer service hotline, and have a chat with 'em. Maybe they can light a fire under the dealer....
