Warranty has been extremely unresponsive, assuming it stays that way I’ll just tackle the issue myself. The only thing I’m unclear on is whether I should buy a new spring for $10-20 or just follow the video guide and unwind the current spring one revolution. Seems like both solutions work. It’ll probably be a few weeks until I get around to it, heading to the Pikes Peak Hillclimb soon, but I’ll report back with how it goes!

Just to update this post, I did have this issue fixed, shifter assembly was replaced by my local dealership along with a massive amount of other repairs totaling almost $15,000. Thankfully no money out of my pocket because I was rear ended and the other drivers insurance paid for everything. Original quote was $2.5k of damage, quite clearly that ballooned. The good news is after 3 months with a rental(Charger with a 5.7 Hemi) I have my car back and everything seems and looks good as new! After all the time waiting, of course the repairs were complete while I was in Philadelphia picking up a ‘51 Willys, but I was happy that the insurance paid for the rental until I got back.
