Where was the ST originally sold? I traded a 21 in MN with a Ford Tune. You could feel a little difference between the tuned and non tuned ST.

I gave up and traded at the right time. I actually upgraded to a Durango Hellcat. A little pricey but worth every penny. Not one problem with about 6K on the clock. By this time I had two trips to the dealer and one recall done.

Good luck on the repair. I got tired of the Synch issues, back up camera, intermittent electrical gremlins and lack of care from Ford. I had more recalls in two years of ownership that the past 12 years of cars. Got fed up with the last Sync issue and traded it off. Have had my Hellcat for a...

Mine used to get it all the time. I'd shut off the vehicle and restart and it would clear. Aggravation at the finest.

Thanks for the note. I decided to trade off the ST for another vehicle. I think it was the solenoid in the trans but never brought it back in to get serviced, pulled the trigger on a different vehicle.

Two different leagues all together. The HC wins in all categories except fuel mileage. Not a big deal breaker in my book.The 3.4 second spirited run to 60 puts a smile on your face every time.

Well after two years I made the decision to move on to something new. The ST was starting to get some quirks and I wanted to move back to something similar to the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk I had. So today I pulled the trigger and traded it in on a Durango SRT Hellcat. Put almost 250 miles on it...

When I back into the garage and shift to Park, hit the stop button the ST will literally jump forward like it is trying to launch off the line. It is difficult to repeat itself because it is so random. This is also in addition to the transmission not wanting to engage when you start it in the...

Because unless they can replicate it all I get is lip service. Trying to see if others have had this issue and if so what was done to resolve it.

Has anyone had issues when putting the ST in park, shutting off the engine and the vehicle lurches hard forward? It has happened 5 or 6 times on mine and it is very unnerving. This happens even with the parking brake automatically coming on when you put it in park.

They said the fix didn't work so they halted the recall and trying to come up with something else. What is really odd, I put the performance tune on the ST and have not had a single issue with the back up camera since. The tune also installed the E Brake coming on when you put it in park, don't...

For all the mention of wheel hop, the way GM attacked it was with Magnetic ride control. The shocks actually control the wheel hop. They found this out with the C6 Z06's. I've had a few high HP GM vehicles and never experienced wheel hop in any of them.

Here is the other odd thing. I was getting the rear camera faults even after the recall. If I drove the ST and then went to back up into the garage, 9 of 10 times I'd get the fault message and the blue screen. Since the tune, not a single blip in the camera. I'll see today after the longer drive...

So I pulled the trigger and got the Ford Performance Tune, got a little discount on it. I installed it this morning and took the ST out for a spin. It has more pep to it now. The one thing which surprised me is the tune installed the recall for the rear axle applying the parking brake. I did not...
