Well I called them today to see how things are going, and they told me the whistle noise is "normal"... I just about started to laugh out of sheer frustration, they said "We had the tech drive the other new R/T on the lot, it makes the same noise so it's normal" I disagreed again and mentioned the TSB for a whistle in the 3.7 and he got quiet for a little, I asked if they could just do the same thing on mine to fix it and he said "Well basically dodge just isn't acknowledging it as a problem on these motors at this point... if we fix it they won't pay us"

So I said "Look, I know how this works... I'll come in tonight to get my car and you'll charge me for the diagnostic time spent looking at something that ended up being quote "normal". I looked at the TSB on-line, I know it only takes a half hour and a drop of silicone to fix this...

at which point he interrupts me "well even so, they won't even pay me for 5 minuets, so I can't touch it"

I told them I will flat out refuse to pay for ANYTHING unless SOMETHING was actually done, fix it and I will pay out of my own pocket "Just fix it, I just want it fixed... what's it going to cost 50 bucks?"

He finally said the tech wants to keep it another day, he wants to find a way to fix it, he's looking into it as best he can, "Don't worry about it, it's not like your warranty is about to expire, who knows maybe Dode will come out with a TSB for the 4.0 soon and you'll end up paying out of pocket for this"

I really could care less if I pay for it... I just want it fixed. This is rediculous...
