Hello everyone. Mike here 2020 ram 1500 Limited Eco diesel owner said to say, but had improper DEF flood message pop up first night I purchased a truck from a used dealership. The next day the message stated I had 200 miles before engine would not restart after that the dealership I bought it from they said didn’t see anything wrong no sensors going bad or anything. And to either drain the DF fluid or let it run through and add high-quality DEF fluid I did that and as I’m waiting on the DEF fluid to run through completely, I continue getting the messages that come and go when it wants to saying I have XXX many miles before engine will not restart. On Saturday the message stated I had 59 miles before engine would not restart and it went all the way down to 39 miles before the message went off dealership. Owner said he would have a service advisor on it first thing Monday morning, and she did text me this morning and say he was working on it however I feel if I take my truck for them to service it and replace the injector or the quality sensor. I should be given something to drive until it’s finished
 
Welcome! I mean I guess it would depend on mileage and how used and dealer preference. I’ve never gotten a loaner from my dealer when I tried to use them but everyone of them is different.
 
Welcome! I've not had good luck in the past with dealers giving loaners.. It all depends on the dealer and your relationship it seems.
