To start I have a 2013 Ram 1500 (3.6)
I was getting a bad misfire on cylinders 3rd & 5th. I went ahead and replaced the ignition coil for all 6 cylinders as well as the spark plugs. The misfires continued and it was determined that the problem was the wiring harness. I took it to a Dodge dealership and had them do the work. Once I received the truck back, it had loss power, meaning it wouldnt pass 60 MPH and the RPMs stayed at 3k. I should also mention that pressing the pedal to the floor did nothing and it would pick up speed slow. Before getting the wire harness replaced the truck would jerk (common sign of a misfire) but it would still accelerate and go pass 60. My service advisor said the right camshaft and phasers needed replacement. My question is or rather my concern is; why would the truck have this issue when it didn't had it when I took it to get the harness replaced.
