25 ST Powertrain Malfunction / Reduced Power

[Blue Beast]

New 2025 ST here....southern Ontario. 3 weeks old. Light came on last evening. Trying to get into dealership 2 days before Christmas. I'm out of town with it and about to head back home after Christmas. Pain in the ass.

Welcome to the forum.

Bought my 2025 ST July 30th…one of the first delivered. I have 7,700 miles and loved it until this week. Took it to the dealership on Monday for its first oil change and learned it has a leaking front transaxle. Yesterday, the PM/RP wrench showed up on screen and the app after a cold start. Drove it home 15 mins away and I can notice the loss of power. Felt like it was on economy mode. Went back out a couple of hours later and there was no more wrench or error message on app or screen. Dropped it off at the dealership this morning and they gave me a loaner (grateful). I’ll update you guys on the resolution. I was afraid of this happening because my ‘18 Limited w/90K miles gave me no issues when I traded it in, but I’ve always wanted an ST.

They just don’t make them like they used to. Quality Control from the Chicago factory has its own challenges resulting in the dealerships having to resolve the factory’s shortcomings thereby overwhelm their techs IMO. Reserving a loaner through the dealership takes weeks…overwhelmed or saving a $$?

Took delivery of my 2025 just two weeks ago after my beloved 2022 was totaled. Anyway, also just got the PM/RP wrench this AM for the first time also, with approx 350 miles on the vehicle. Fit and finish has always been an issue (crooked hood, paint blemishes, epoxy on the rear windows, etc.), but this + the fact my radio wouldn't work the other day all speaks to software and computers. Waiting for dealer to call back on appointments. My 2nd ST?! I know, you think I would have learned the first time - but I love the way it feels.

Wow, I had the epoxy on my rear window too. Still haven't gotten it all off. There are definitely QC issues from the factory.

Chicago Assembly for ST and Police versions. Notorious for being lowest quality in North America, but you do get the stronger frame.
