Wow!!! I have not heard of that on these Cummins. I had it happen on the wife's Durango. I was happy it was still well within warranty. I suppose your is too. Hope they get you back on the road quickly.

its not looking like it will be a fast fix, no one i have talked to has ever heard of a 6.7 having a valve spring fail. i have a fleet of crane with 190 of these engine and not a one has had an issue like this, its unfortunate, just a small defective part caused such significant damage
