My 2019 RAM 2500 with 60,000 miles started telling me that the DPF is full and would regen for days at a time. I finally took it to a dealer and I’m being told that the DPF is plugged and needs to be replaced. The quote is $3,000.
As it turns out the DPF is not covered by the emissions warranty (WTF???) and the warranty is only 36,000 miles.
I have opened an incident with RAM Cares and I’m waiting to hear if they will do anything to help.
I’ve driven diesels for a long time, and worked for an upfitter where we dealt with MB Sprinter diesels a lot. The expected life of a DPF is about 250K-300K miles on a Sprinter.
Is this short DPF life the norm for the RAM?
Note: I am not interested in DPF deletes or anything like that.
