Yes, it's a 3 year/100,000-mile warranty.

I've posted the link in this thread a few different times. Here it is: https://moparpowertrain.com/product/5158048af-3-0l-eco-diesel-complete-running-engine/

As we travel from coast to coast, we run Love's Fuel 99% of the time. Love's lists their biodiesel percentages on their website for each station. Depending on the state and station, Love's carries B5, B10, B15, and B20. I have an auxiliary in-bed fuel tank, so it makes it easy to skip the...

There's only 5,368 miles on this sample, but the oil spent 8 months in the engine. Lots of cold starts, short commutes, biodiesel in every tank, and towing. Severe service for sure, but the T6 did its job. I sent my OA to a lab tech to get his input. He said fleet managers typically draw a...

I agree that long term ownership could be costly. I've been fortunate so far. My truck hasn't thrown a code in over three years. Speaking of OAs, I just got my analysis report yesterday. There's only 5,368 miles on the engine oil, but the oil spent 8 months in the engine. That's a lot of...

My statement is a fact. It's a fact that most failures happen within the first 70,000 miles. Many failures happened within the first 30,000 miles. According to GDE, "the main bearing issues is partially design weaknesses and assembly tolerance stack-ups." In other words, some engines meet...

You better go back and reread what I wrote. Nowhere did I say that a failure rarely occurs after 70K. "Most engine failures occur within the 5 year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty period." "The 2014 - 2019 EcoDiesel is a good engine, however, quality control and design weakness has...

That's true. Every EcoDiesel with 350,000+ miles have been tuned. There have been two individuals who claim they went 300,000 on stock tuning. 350,000 Mile Club VernDiesel - 371,000 miles (engine only) 400,000 Mile Club VernDiesel - 423,000 miles (engine only) 450,000 Mile Club James -...

The 3.0L Duramax is being used in the 2022 GM and Chevy 1/2 ton truck, Tahoe, Suburban, etc. The last I heard, they are replacing the smaller 2.8L diesel in the Colorado and Canyon with the 3.0L Duramax.

Most engine failures occur within the 5 year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty period. Unfortuantlly, you have a fairly low mileage truck for the year, otherwise it too would have fell under warranty. Being optimistic for a moment, at least you'll start off fresh with a new engine. Stating...

The 2014 - 2019 EcoDiesel is a good engine, however, quality control and design weakness has resulted in an estimated 10% failure rate. Most of the flawed engines seems to fail in the first 70,000 miles or so. Fortunately, the engines are pretty affordable considering they come with a new...

It sure can be. It's a form of gambling. So far, I haven't had any repairs on the 2015 outside of warranty. We bought it brand new for $38,000 and got the $3,075 settlement check a few years later. The truck now has 101,000 miles. We liked the 2015 EcoDiesel so much that we bought a 2020...

Yup, it's not a winning situation. This is why I own two trucks (2015 EcoDiesel and 2020 EcoDiesel). If one goes down, I have a backup. Life is a game; we have to learn how to play it.

Crate engines have been on backorder for several months now. The engine can still be ordered, but it might take a 4 - 8 weeks before one arrives.

Correct. That's the engine I posted in the link above.

You won't be able to put a gen 3 engine in your truck without a lot of time, money, and customization. Replace your engine with another 2014 - 2019 gen II engine.

I'd be willing to pay the dealer $11,000, but not a penny more. I would negotiate with your dealer, or get prices from other dealer, or find an independent shop.

A new crate engine comes with a 2 year/100,000 mile warranty. Before COVID, the engines were $6,400 dollars! They keep going up in price! https://moparpowertrain.com/product/5158048af-3-0l-eco-diesel-complete-running-engine/

What year and mileage? You probably fell victim to a spun bearing. FCA/Stellantis has been replacing engines under the 5 year/100,000 mile warranty. If you're outside of warranty, a new engine can be bought for $7,600 and installed for about $1,800 depending on the dealer/shop.
