I think we should get a repair thread going to document what other members have taken their Stinger into the dealer for.

I've recent taken mine in to the get seat warmer button replaced.

Trip one: audio position not saving/intermittent loss of volume, trunk rattle, brake squeal, blown spark plug, sticky parking sensor/ISG buttons.
Outcome: only trunk fixed and spark plug replaced (which didn't fix the issue).
Loaner: 2018 Cadenza

Trip two: brake squeal, blown spark plug/CEL/limp mode engaged
Outcome. All plugs replaced
Loaner: 2018 Sorrento

Rear window seals replaced and all 4 underbody trays/covers that were damaged by a shop who put on my eibach springs (replacement cost $506.00 and the shop won?t pay for them. Super frustrating but not worth the cost to chase them)- loaner Subaru wagon

Upcoming - Stereo headunit to fix intermittent fader issue. Maybe. Awaiting feedback from Rob32

And also dealer had to buff out scratches they made to the rear Facia when they replaced the rear window seals.

I'm surprised to see the things you all have had to have fixed. I'm hoping my May build has all the issues taken care of. Just hit 1700 miles and got back from the dealer after they fixed door edge guards that had started to peel up from improper installation and they cleaned and detailed the interior after I noticed run marks from the tint installation they had done prior to me getting the car.

Had my right rear tail light replaced. Broken mounts
When I removed my taillights to add wiring to make the reflectors active lights...
The 'inside' mount (the hard one to get to) on the r/h side was pre-broken from the factory. Made removal easy ;)
Left side was fine.

Going to take it in to have the rotors turned. This happened with my Durango as well shortly after I bought it.

I had mine turned and the problem came back. I talked to my dealer and he told me that they have replaced the rotors on all the cars they had to turn rotors on. So they are going to replace mine, they were on back order for a month.

Took it in on saturday, took them 10 minutes to come get me in the waiting room. "Yes sir we've identified the problem and are ordering new rotors for you" Obvious issue going on here...
