@@austinkowalski5512 I'd hope so, it's new. The problem is, it's a brand new platform from Stellantis. Stellantis, the company behind Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, and others is considered to make the least reliable cars in the world. Given the hornet is a brand new platform, I wouldn't expect it to last very long unfortunately. I just hope you're leasing it.

I preordered one, requested the blacktop package, but they ordered without. All I can tell you is that even after waiting for 7 months, I laughed and walked away. The non blacktop package wheels are so hilariously dumb looking, and there practically are no aftermarket options that fit this bolt pattern and offset.

Pricing on these are very attractive in California for the hybrid due to the govt rebates. Dodge was offering a lease last month with approx 4K down out of pocket and a payment of approx $225 a month. That was the RT with track plus package, the model is very loaded even 20" wheels Alacantara leather power/heated seats etc. My friend picked one up and for that payment it's amazing!! Must admit, like the vehicle much more than expected.

I think the Hornet is the right vehicle for Dodge. Sure, who doesn't want a Hellcat in their driveway(or 3 like me😂)? But in terms of what buyers are needing right now and the fact that CUVs dominate, they had to do something to resuscitate the brand. Yes, it is pricey but so is a Mazda CX-30/CX-5/CX-50 in comparable trims. The R/T may be in fact the way to go because it qualifies for the PHEV tax credit, thus lowering its price against a the GT. And its performance and fuel economy would be superior. I love how unique it is over the dullards of the class.

The cooling system is extremely complicated and cooling lines run from the front engine compartment, all the way back to the rear battery and then all the way back in a loop. Ask any mechanic about how complicated and expensive this vehicle is for any type of repairs. Oh, and this is lol’ble…. All of the clamps throughtout the vehicle are one time usable. If you have to remove a clamp to replace any of the 100’s of hoses, you need a new proprietary clamp. Only dealers will be able to properly service the car.

Direct injection is a scam by the manufacturers who are making these engines on the cheap, which you cannot fix the carbon buildup on the valves, but they use direct injection anyways, in order to meet government mileage standards, but the customer gets screwed.

I've sat in the first one delivered in Houston, the interior feels very luxurious, way better than most Dodges. It maybe doesn't show on camera, but like the center LCD is higher resolution than I've seen in any recent competing products for example, with zero lag on the new uconnect OS. If you have an Alfa Romeo Tonale nearby and sit in that, its very similar to the Dodge.

If you are looking at a Hornet, dont buy it. Way too many issues. I have been waiting for the radar since I bought it, possible ETA of Apr some time. Thought dealership had it fixed with an update, nope. Transmissions shifts very hard going in and out of 2nd gear with it getting into other gears. My Hornet is now at (not the dealership i bought it from) a dealership because the battery dies overnight. Could jump start it because the theft deterant system in it to where I couldnt even hook up a code reader, it says manufactorer has it locked out. The battery died the first time this past Friday morning. I was behind schedule by an hour, once it got jumped that day, the only day it was able to be jumped, some dumbass ran into cones and threw them into my lane and now I have damage to the front end because of it. I have regretted trading in my 2019 Ram Warlock edition. This vehicle is not worth the heartache and after reading the Hornet owners page, sounds like a lot of buybacks are starting to happen.

I test-drove the GT Plus a couple of days ago: great acceleration, road feel, and steering. However, the major drawback that will prevent me from buying this car, which had promised to be right up my alley specs-and price-wise, is unbelievably poor ERGONOMIC design. I'm small, and yet, when I raised the seat all the way, which is my must seating position, I felt hemmed in. If you don't like to raise the seat, you'll have a hard time getting out because of the steering wheel sitting too low and being in your way, so you'll have to raise the wheel every time before exiting. Getting out of the car was hard because my behind, despite being skinny, was getting stuck in the vertical ,"sporty" side of the seat, which is meant to envelop your body while you're driving. Also, the combination of the leatherette and plastic material on the seat acted like Velcro during the exit from the car. There's more. When you open the door and try to to get in, you have to be very careful because you might seriously bump your head on the pillar between the driver's side window and the windshield. I've been shopping for and buying cars for decades, but I've never seen such an injury-prone ingress design flaw before. This is just another example of how car makers shoot themselves in the foot by not using common sense and doing enough customer research before putting a vehicle on the market.
