Just picked up my Blk/Blk 2014 and tonight (under 100 miles) I found a small amount of oil on the garage floor right behind the passengers front tire.

Can not see where the oil is coming from and will take it to the dealer next week. The oil looks like engine oil, maybe thinner than engine oil.

Any ideas?

Maybe from the shock? I heard before somebody had to have theirs replaced. Svt performance pack?

Yes, I have the performance pack.

Good call, thin grey oil.

I will get it in and confirm what I find out.

Shock fluid by the sounds of it. My right rear leaked onto the ground and I had both rears swapped under warranty.

Got back from the dealer, no leak!

I must have rolled through some oil on the way home because nothing is leaking.

They were pretty cool about it, put it back up on the rack and let me look and wipe as much as I wanted.

so... I guess everything is fine.
