Default 2005 Dodge SRT-4

Out of curiosity I am nearing my 5,000 mile mark. Is the 2005 srt-4 known for any defects or bad habits? Anything I should be looking out for? Any complaints about it, yada yada? Nada? Anything?

No boost leaks, my dealer always checks when I take the SRT-4 in for it's 90 day checkup/oil change. Watch out for cracking headlights, though. Lots of people have complained and I had mine replaced under warranty after showing the dealer it was a common problem....

My #2 spark plug was so loose, it wasn't even finger tight. So I'm sure more than one car got a loose plug down the line the day mine was assembled.[:'(]

Some issues:
- TPS Wire
- Plugs/Wires not being capable of handling the engine's heat
- 3rd gear crapped out in alot of 05s
- Boost leaks, well yeah check for em, make sure everythings tight and such


Thats all I can think of right now
