    Well, @ram has officially blown me off and kicked me to the curb. This is the last message from them: "We do apologize for the confusion around the Canadian Dealership. At this time, the decisions made by your case manager are unable to be overturned. According to your case, without your...

    Yes, the warranty is through Autoguard. And they have a customer for life as far as I'm concerned. As I stated in a previous post, they stepped up and are paying $7,500 of the almost $14,000 cost even thought the vehicle was technically out of warranty. I can't thank Autoguard enough...

    Another update: So I just got blown off by my @RamCares case manager. He replied to my email with "I have further reviewed your case and see that your engine is being covered partially under the warranty company. I would not be able to provide cost assistance if the repairs are already being...

    2019 2500 6.4L engine blown up at 95K miles?

    Update: @RamCares opened a case on this and I sent them all the information they requested. I received an email late Friday afternoon (that I just got this morning since we were out of town) stating that since my truck is in Canada, They can't do anything. Now, I have never been to Canada...

    2019 2500 6.4L engine blown up at 95K miles?

    Update: Autoguard, the extended warranty company, has stepped up and is going to pay $7,500 of the almost $14,000 bill. I am very grateful for this. The truck was out of warranty by only 883 miles, but out of warranty none the less and they didn't have to pay anything. Additionally...

    2019 2500 6.4L engine blown up at 95K miles?

    Hey Sam, I bought it from Hendrick in Cary. The work is being done at Performance Ram in Clinton. I kind of didn't have a choice since it blew up 10 miles down the road from them. I felt kind of lucky in that regard... Just curious, why did you trade it with only 32K miles?

    2019 2500 6.4L engine blown up at 95K miles?

    It's a 2500 so I have the 6.4 Hemi. I am considering going that route, but am concerned about trade in/selling it and it not being fixed by a Ram dealer?

    2019 2500 6.4L engine blown up at 95K miles?

    Okey dokey, finally heard from the dealer. Timing chain broke with catastrophic damage to the engine. Have to replace the engine. Total labor and materials with a remanufactured engine is $13,897.00. As noted before, the extended warranty I purchased ran out at 88,000 miles. Mileage at...

    Not familiar with an Idler pulley, but it sounds less expensive than a blown engine? Can anyone speak to this?

    2019 2500 6.4L engine blown up at 95K miles?

    I'm not very happy about it. Most of those miles are highway. I drive back and forth from Wilmington to Raleigh (two hours each way) twice a week with the cruise set at 71 mph. So it's not like the truck has been abused...

    It was one of the local Franchise shops. And you are correct - no-one was hurt!
