First time poster...Bolts failed on the right side manifold, 8k miles out of warranty. This is my first RAM (2017 2500 5.7). I'll be going through these threads to see what the best solution is to make a permanent repair but off the top of my head OEM parts are not going back on it.
I'm considering doing the other side (Gasket and bolts) before another bolt sheers/snaps. The downside to that is I now want to move on from this truck and this can simply be someone elses problem. There is a limited supply of new vehicles from any of the other manufacturers or RAM and that is putting a damper on my plans.
I'm not happy (and no one is of course) that this is a known problem and there are no recalls. I've also not heard of any upgrade so any Hemi is suspect as of the 2022 model year.
