Sorry, I understood that your issue was intermittent, I was asking about the transmission interlock issue.
What larryl is getting at with his post is that the vehicle may not believe it is in Park or Neutral and is therefore not starting. I thought that when the interlock was bad it wouldn't shift at all, but thought I may be wrong. I was trying to clarify exactly what larryl was getting at.

wouldn't this result in being stuck in gear? Or is it an intermittent thing?

These newer Dodges are super finicky with the power supply. At 6+ years old, I would replace the battery, but if you don't want to do that I would at least load test it as mentioned. The battery doesn't have to be toast for it to not play nice with the car. Long gone are the days of the simple vehicles; all of the electronics present nowadays bring a new factor to the equation. One dead cell could wreak havoc.

Sissies...

The fact that it is clicking means it is trying to start, so I am leaning away from the fob. This (one click) is usually a tell tale sign that the starter is not getting full voltage from the battery (i.e., a bad battery). You say that you know the battery is good; can you expand on how you know this to be true? There are many reasons why a battery may appear to be fine when in fact it is not...

Sissies...

I wonder if this is a change in 2015??? Are you using the voice command to try and send the text? You can't reply on the screen in motion but you can most definitely use voice commands in my 2014 to send the canned responses... I doubt it is a law thing. Texting while driving is illegal everywhere I think; it is definitely illegal in MN and mine works (via voice commands).

It should work, although until you get the hang of it, it is a little frustrating.

You should be able to send a text while in motion as long as it is one of the predetermined responses. Mine works. It tacks "Sent from my Dodge" on the end of my message though and all of my buddies will reply to that with long lists of swear words because they think it funny when I listen to it and the uConnect girl cusses me out. For that reason I rarely send texts through the system. That, and I find very little use for the responses you can choose from.

I would be surprised if the idler is the cause in the 2016... Let's not pretend that the 3.6 is a quiet engine, it may very well be normal operation. Can you take a video of the noise and post it?

I used UV rated dip on my most recent set and it has held up great.

I have the Curt receiver that hangs below the bumper. It doesn't look bad at all. I wouldn't bother with some clown cutting my bumper and using the less robust receiver just to avoid seeing it. You wouldn't even notice mine if you weren't looking for it (and that's with the 2" receiver tube).

Depending on miles, you should be able to get an extended warranty from mopar. That is assuming the rules down there aren't different...

Little known fact... Some parts groups will budge on pricing. As you stated, the markup is high and they have room to move. My old man works in parts for Nissan and I have witnessed him bartering with a parts guy at Ford and end up with a SIGNIFICANT savings.

You must be a smaller guy. I don't think I could spend 2 hours in the third row. Yikes! Mine has never even been up, but it's there if I need it.

Mine are in toront about 8 hours away. My guess Friday I'll have them. Doing a retro to my fogs with my old 6.0

Don't think it needs to be the Dodge specific model, but I didn't really ask...

That's kind of my stance too... we'll find out when we get in there. I'm still kicking around going with a quad set up in my head. Of course, then I would have to use the MH1 6.0's that I am currently using, so I'm not sold on it...

Yep. I have a Galaxy Note 4.

No real break in period on these newer vehicles, but you will start to see a major uptick in mileage somewhere around the 8,000 mile mark... Welcome.
