Hi folks! I know just enough about my vehicle to be dangerous. I was changing out my air filter and noticed a red switch that was disconnected on the passenger side under the hood directly under the windshield. Since I have been having issues with my passenger mirror retracting I thought...
UPDATE: The dealership has had my 2015 Ram for this whole week now. AFTER finally performing a DIAGNOSTIC on my truck at the end of business on Wednesday, the dealership told me that the issue with the message I had was that a DEF injector was bad and had to be replaced along with the fuel...
"SERVICE DEF SYSTEM See Dealer" Has anyone had this message before?
Ever since I had my recall work done on the crankshaft tone wheel, emissions settlement recalls...almost six months ago, I no longer get the messages that tell me that my DEF filter is 80% full to drive highway speeds to...
They did replace my tone wheel and the repairs were covered under all of the preceding recalls W58, the emissions recall, etc. which I had avoided because of fuel economy degradation. At the time of repair, I had about 120k miles on vehicle. I had to agree to all of the recall issues being...
Did you call Mopar Customer Care (MCC)? The dealership tried to tell me I would be charged for the entire repair and that it wasn't covered under recall or warranty, but after looking at my recall details and information provided by this forum, I smelled a rat and contacted MCC. MCC was very...
I am not qualified to answer you, but I am very sorry to hear that they confirmed that the engine did seize. Hopefully someone else here can give you some ideas of some options.
Have you spoken with Mopar Customer Care? This is a phone number that I have from my case. 800 992-1997 You will need to have your VIN handy. If you talk to them and they maintain that your VIN is not covered under that recall, I would ask them why it is not covered. Also ask if there are...
I bought my vehicle brand new and it has been a very good and reliable vehicle for me. I know all vehicles are subjected to various drivers, environmental elements, etc. that can create more mechanical issues, so not everyone deals with the same issues on the same type of vehicle. I am on the...
That doesn't sound like the particular problem that I had with that tone wheel code delimitation. It had nothing to deal with the engine seizing, it just wouldn't start. It was turning over, just not firing. You might go back through your recalls on your vehicle and see if there are any...
Thanks for your post. I am sorry for your experience and I am very thankful I wasn't out on the road when my truck had shut down, although I was away from home with five big dogs and no vehicle for over two weeks, which does seem minor compared to you being without your vehicle for almost four...
I have been hesitant about having the V08 recall performed because I haven't had ANY issues with my truck for 5.5 years until now and I have read many complaints on various forums about degraded fuel efficiency and other issues experienced by consumers as a result of the V08 recall. My thinking...
Thanks so much for your post wsonnenb. I did file my claim for the V08 earlier this week hoping that the approximate $3k would offset my expenses and frustrations for being without a vehicle for two plus weeks. I am now being told my vehicle wouldn't be available until Monday now.
After...
Thank you wsonnenb! I wished I had seen your post early yesterday morning when I was going back and forth with the service advisor, Mopar Consumer Care and the service manager at the dealership. Nobody really explained to me exactly what specifically that the W58 entailed...according to the...
Thank you. I wasn't aware that the Class Action Lawsuit for the V-08 recall had been settled until I was reviewing the recalls for my vehicle Tuesday. I never received a notice that the lawsuit had been settled. I went ahead and filed the claim for the V-08 recall Tuesday afternoon after...
Thank you all for explaining all of these explanations...you have provided much more information than what I have been given by anyone associated with the dealership or the corporation. I am beginning to think I am still not getting the right story from the dealer.
Prior to seeing all of your...
