 2014 and vibration
My 2012 RT had a small vibration that was driving me nuts. I checked everything in the front end and I have a belt stabilizer, still had that little vibration. So I went to my dealer this morning to check out the new 2014's. He didn't even want to talk. said he had way to many 2013's he had to get rid of first. Well since I was already there I checked with service dept. and ask if they could balance my front wheels. Got the strangest look, but since it was my dime they did it. ! wheel was 15 grams off and the other was 12 grams. I am now a happy camper. Vibration is all gone. It now rides like the Caddy it was designed to do.

Thanks. Rides so good now I may just forget the 2014 for a year or so.

Just my opinion....There should be absolutely no way the fronts should be that far out of balance from new.

You are right Ann and I have another in mind. Just wanted to see what he could do for me so I have something when I do go for the trade. But the way my 12 goes now I think I'll just wait a bit.

Pa is known as the pot hole capitol of the world. And riding these rough roads can very easily knock them out of balance

Although I'm not sure what the vibration had to do with the 2014 miodels...
and have the feeling we are going to hear a lot of this as well as low balling on trades.
