    Eco diesel just blew up at 48k miles

    I asked the service advisor if this failure could be due to that open recall and he said no there is no correlation.

    Eco diesel just blew up at 48k miles

    I’m from Massachusetts and I had never heard of this nor has anyone I’ve talked to around here. Dealer didn’t go into any detail other than saying broken crank shaft. He went on to say that he sees it all the time and that he’s even seen it at under 30k miles. I do agree that all of the research...

    Eco diesel just blew up at 48k miles

    I had to take a loan out to pay for motor swap myself total $11,775. New motor will be covered for 3yr /100k miles. I’ll just keep fighting for some help from FCA and the selling dealer. If I wasn’t so upside down on the truck I’d just trade it and look for something American

    Eco diesel just blew up at 48k miles

    My cluster is predominantly in miles. Also no daytime running lights my amber lights stay on in my headlight cluster only. I’ll have to look for block heater/cord. In my opinion the changing of the cluster odometer to predominantly miles per hour is overtly dishonest... an attempt to conceal its...

    Yes definitely showed Canada. But I didn’t know anything about a Canadian car and warranty thing at the time I looked at it. It also didnt day anything about how it was registered (personal veh or long term lease or commercial veh etc..)

    I’m actually talking to an attorney as well as a media outlet in Boston about my options. I’ve been told to refrain from mentioning the dealer by name yet. But every fiber of my being wants to warn people to avoid them at all costs!!

    Oh I’ve learned alright! However FCA is going to continue shirking their responsibility in covering their product if we all remain silent! I’m hoping that this particular motor issue effects enough people who come together and hold FCA accountable for their lack of effort to find the cause and...

    Eco diesel just blew up at 48k miles

    can anyone tell me the answer to this question? If a ram is built for the Canadian market to Canadian specs would the speedometer be in kilometers not miles? Mine is in miles per hour and fca said that someone could easily change it out. Did the shady dealership swap it out or is it required to...

    The sales guy ensured that the price of the truck would thousands more if it weren’t Canadian however I’m still 7k upside down on the truck right now. So I don’t think I bought it at a discount ($35900 for a 2016 ram 1500 ed crew cab longhorn limited ) bought feb 2019

    Just saw the other comment on possible trade deal. They had me 19k upside down on the truck so trade was not an option. I paid $36k less than 1 year ago for my ram with 26k miles on it . My payoff is 32,600k . They offered me 14 with blown motor.

    Eco diesel just blew up at 48k miles

    To answer the questions raised so far. Called Canadian dealership and no coverage there either. Engine cam shaft cracked totaled engine. And I have zero mechanical skills so... $11,7775.81 is total cost for dealer replacement. New motor will be covered for 3 years 100k miles. Still fighting the...
