You’re gonna make me do it, aren’t you? Well, for you, sure. Even though I got things to do, I took the time to take some pictures for you. Look at these pictures real hard and tell me where it says that I can use 5W-20 engine oil in place of 5W-30. if you’re too ignorant to tell, hopefully you should be able to see that these were taken from the very manual that came with my truck when I bought it. And no, my truck was not made in 2018 it was made in October 2017. I’ll wait. So again you have the audacity to call me stupid? I don’t know what kind of medication you’re on, but you need to talk to your doctor about it.

Well you just confirmed it,you're to stupid to even be able to comprehend your owners manual.
Better put your reading glasses on bud,as you're blind in 1 eye and apparently can't see out the other.
You know the more you blather away,the dumber you get :Big Laugh:

Seems to me you already are giving them an excuse to deny coverage by not properly maintaining your truck.
How so? I make sure the engine oil that I buy is within spec. And the oil filter. I don’t do my oil changes near at long of an interval is the little oil life meter on my dash tells me too. I take pretty good care of it. I may be a little bit hard on the gas pedal, but who isn’t? And as a matter of fact, my warranty has covered things on this truck, but so far it’s not anything related related to lack of maintenance so, even though you laughed at 4 of the posts I made, I’m still intrigued on how you came up with this half baked opinion.

You're the one who's claiming 5W-30 ,when your manual is stating 5W-20.Just to make sure you didn't try to back track,i quoted your post where you're claiming it says to use 5W-30 :Big Laugh:
Little to late to back track now bud,as you've proven you can't read or comprehend your manual.:Big Laugh:

Well, gee, score yourself another five bonus points because I made what most of us who know better, refer to as a typo.

You know exactly what I meant and well, just for you, I went back and changed it but for the record, I said- show me in my own manual where it says I can use 5W-30 engine oil in place of 5W-20.

But that’s all you have to go by is a typo? Man, you’re pool of intelligence just ain’t very deep, is it?

A typo is not the only mistake you've made,it's just one in a long line of mistakes you've made while you've been a member on here ;)
Be another story if this was your only screw up,but it's just 1 in your many ignorant posts you've made when you won't accept anybodies advice,because it's not what you wanted to hear,and you go off the deep end with your accusations:badidea:

Hmm. Not checking and maintaining proper trans fluid level comes to mind.
Actually I laughed at all of your posts. Just didn’t think it appropriate to put a laughing emoji on each one.

Of course- my biggest fan @Wild one would like that but well, I guess you just have to understand the language as it’s written in the Mopar MaxCare lifetime warranty contract.

But then again, what’s so hard to understand when it says FOLLOW MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDATIONS?

I guess maybe if you would spend more time reading than laughing, you would’ve seen earlier in the discussion when I said I’ve already consulted my warranty on this and they even assured me that lack of maintenance and not messing with the transmission will guarantee me a new one- sorry, better say new to me or Mr. wild boy will catch me on it….

Well, the owners manual does say it’s a “lifetime” fill, does it not? That’s what MaxCare said to follow when I even asked them so I can’t trust them now? You do realize this is a Mopar service contract that I signed, right? I take it you’ve never had one of these warranties? But whatever, if you say you’ve got oceanfront property in Arizonat then I guess I must believe it.

But you know what, if my warranty does try to weasel out and go back on that they told me, why you worried about it so much? Or are you just trying so desperately to be right?

Actually I laughed at all of your posts. Just didn’t think it appropriate to put a laughing emoji on each one.

Ok, and? Not sure why you felt I needed to know that enough like it’s supposed to mean something for you to go back and edit your post to add it.

So what “mistakes” have I made besides responding to your childish posts?

And that’s just complete nonsense. I’ve accepted all kinds of advice but let me tell ya, smart guy- I don’t have to do anything so suck it up buttercup.

To my Friends here who have attempted to engage Mr. Corn in constructive conversation,… I have decided to comply with advice our wonderful Samuel Clements famously offered:

"Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience".

Quoting a line Twain never even said just to pretend some people’s “advice” made sense is a nice touch. What some said contradicted themselves, and some ignored what I actually wrote. I followed what was logical, fixed the issue, and moved on. If that makes me the “idiot,” I’ll keep winning by experience.
