11,500 on mine and the sc definitely has a “hellcat supercharger” whine to it at idle. Nothing crazy but louder then when it was stock. I baby this car and rarely go WOT. :ROFLMAO::LOL::ROFLMAO::LOL:

Not a redeye, but I have noticed an ever so slight whine (bearing noise) that I do not remember when brand new? Now at around 17,000 miles. Oh well...I enjoy it and consider the supercharger a wear item.

All the more reason I opted for the extended warranty. Did want to pay this much for car and ha e to worry about issues.

7500 mi on RE, car was built last wk of Oct 2018 for 2019 MY. No issues YET still sounds same. I don’t baby it, but I don’t hammer it constantly to point of what I would think is abuse. Drive it as it was intended.

Contact SRT and open a claim for each issue and problem solved. If not request a buy back option or a new Redeye

You may want to check to see if your extended warranty actually covers a Hellcat, tons of people have gotten their money back when they found out they weren’t covered.

They can bolt in a new supercharger in a couple of hours 100% on warranty. I had a pulley basically fail at 4K miles, replaced the SC with a smile.
Me too except it was at 40K miles

I agree, I believe my '16 has an AD S/C on it ! Shouldn't it be AF or AG ??

My 2020 non-RE was built 12/19. The ring gear/starter pinion failed at about 700mi. Other than that, no probs for 14kmi. Fingers crossed.
