As the title states I am a 2015 Ecodiesel owner who had their engine blow at 74495 miles last evening. It happened when I dropped a gear to have more power for a hill I was climbing. No warning lights and no previous problems or oddities. The engine started knocking loudly and power was lossed. I am not under warranty and wil be calling FCA on Monday. The truck was dropped at the dealership and am awaiting a call from them. Any words of advice would be appreciated as I know many other owners have had similar problems. Thank you

Welcome! Motors blowing are a problem, and I wish FCA would come out and say something. This just happens way to much.. Sucks your out of warranty..

If you can't talk FCA out of helping since it's such a common issue, perhaps a junk yard pull out and pay a mechanic for a swap? Otherwise, I'd be scared to know what the dealer is going to charge out of warranty.

Am I wrong for assuming you should have 25k left on your power train warranty?
