Got my safety recall notice in the mail yesterday for the spoiler inspection. I have an appointment at the dealer on Friday morning at 7:30 AM. I will see what they have to say.
Me too.
What is funny is they said my VIN wasn’t associated with the recall when I took the TSB to the dealer in January. They tightened the spoiler when I showed them the TSB for 2021 Durango R/T.

I will probably bring the letter next time I go and show them that.

Made an appointment with my professional detailer for April 1st for paint correction, paint sealant, then two-layer ceramic coating. I will be getting my windows, wheels, barrels and calipers ceramic coated as well. I can't wait to share the results.
You’re gonna love it. I have a 21 DDRT in Octane Red and got the Ceramic Pro Gold package. The car looks better today than when I drove it off the lot 2 years ago (got it late 2020). Don’t forget to post pics!

Do they paint correct it before ceramic? - how much did it cost?

So most good shops will start with a complete clay bar, then paint correction then ceramic coating. I am a big fan of the SB3 ceramic but there are many good ones out there.
Cost for all?

Most shops for a 5-year warranty will be in the 2K range if you get the paint finish, windows, wheels, barrels, and calipers. Not sold on the interior stuff just yet.
Ok cool.

It was about 9 outside late yesterday. We have not driven it 50 miles. It was dusty but I have not got it dirty yet because we don’t NEED to use it everyday. It was a good chance to at least get a touch less spray off at the nearby wash and get it back here and take a good look at the paint job after it warmed back up.

It is the DB. I will say it has a good paint job. Looks darn nice clean. Looks probably better than either one of my Challengers for depth of color and thickness of the clear coat. The paint does contain lots of metallic and it is cool looking. I am real happy with what I see for overall paint quality.

I will need to get a buffer out today (have a very heated large garage with massive LED lights) and touch up where some ignorant fool used either an inappropriate rag or something to wipe the hood in a few places. Matter of fact, I don’t doubt they just spit on it and wiped it with a hand or glove to view the paint. Probably was the same mutant retarded ignorant fool who drove it 96 mph that was available in the top speed record within the screen performance registers. Oh yes, they have that info very clearly in my “feedback” given to Dodge for everyone to read.

NO, Mr. remote dealer it was not a perfect paint job free of any swirls or scratches. You need to visit your eye doctor immediately! They won’t need to think about delivering another vehicle for me again.

Overall, love the vehicle, I think it is going to be a keeper.

Anyone else notice their fuel door is more brown than black like the remainder of the vehicle. Under a good light it is not even close. May even qualify as a warranty request IMO. ;)
Yep….2020 DDRT

That’s a whole different color! All plastic will be different shade of color, bumpers and fuel door. Every car is like that, but that’s not even freakin close to the right color!!
