I have a 2016 Ram Big Horn which I bought new with the 3.0 eco diesel. I've posted here many times with many problems. Last year at 70,000 miles the motor seized and it was replaced under warranty. They never told me anything about what the problem was nor did they give me any paperwork...
I've posted numerous issue on this forum I have had with my 2016 3.0 Bighorn. I bought the truck brand new and everything was fine for the first 45,000 miles, then everything started to go wrong with it. Melted intakes, EGR's, you name it, it's been in the shop numerous times from 45,000 to the...
My 2016 Dodge Eco Diesel is back at the dealership yet again. This time it is a fuel particulate filter that needs to be replaced. I'm just under 80,000 miles and was told by the dealership that is is under warranty to 80,000. I thought after they were flashed that the warranty was longer on...
I've posted before with the problems with my 2016 3.0 Bighorn. It's been in the shop 7 times in the last year and a half for warranty work. Here's the latest.
One week ago it went into limp mode again and was undrivable. Same old message "electronic throttle bottle needs service". I swear that...
After the re-flash this fall on my 2016 3.0 Bighorn I noticed an appreciable drop in MPG. It has gotten considerably worse since the the weather has gotten colder. I now have an average of 17.2 MPG. This is driving 75% on the highway and 25% in the city. I have not towed a single thing in the...
I had my 2016 3.0L ED reprogramed about a month ago. First the transmission coolant bypass failed a day after the work was completed. A coincidence? I don't think so. Yesterday my heater stopped working; not good when it's 19 degrees outside. I was able to press the circulation button and the AC...
How many have noticed a drop in MPG after they got the computer update? I had the update done this past summer. My average MPG at that time was 23.6. I don't tow hardly anything. I don't live in the city. I drive to work roundtrip each day at about 25 miles, most of that is on the highway at a...
Just curious if anyone has heard anything good or bad about the 3.0L diesel that Ford is putting in the F150 or the 2.8L 4 cylinder diesel that Chevy is putting in the Colorado and GMC is putting in the Canyon? Are they experiencing the problems that FCA is with the 3.0L?
I own a 2016 with the 3.0 diesel with 56,000 miles. I bought it new. Many problems thus far. I just got another recall notice in the mail last week and now it looks like another problem with the EGR cooler that likely will need replacing.
I realize each state is different for warranty and buy...
About a month ago the intake on my 2016 Longhorn diesel melted and had to be replaced. Two weeks ago it was in and they flashed it for the computer update, horrible performance since then but that's another story. A week ago I had the engine light come on and it went into limp mode for about 10...
I've been reading about the tuners for the 3.0 EcoDiesel like the GDE, and they seem like the way too go. The huge problem I see is that when you put one on your vehicle, you void your factory warranty. The Dodge warranty specifically states that tampering with the emissions system or with a...
I have a 2016 Bighorn with the 3.0 diesel. I purchased the truck new. The truck has been in the dealership garage 4 times for the soot problems. On labor day when driving down the road there was a puff of smoke out the tail pipe and the truck shut down and smoke came from under the hood. I had...
