2016 ram 1500
Never ever missed oil change or service.
I purchased truck new.
160000 miles and it got the tick.
I noticed the truck had an issue before it became an issue.
Took it to my mechanic, said motor is fine. No idiot light.
Took it to a transmission shop, they said they wouldn't open granny, it passed all there input tests.
No idiot light.
A month later, the idiot light comes on....
Took to dealer, after a week I get a call, your motor is shit.
Cylinder 3 lifter has toasted your engine.
They wanted 15000 to repair truck.
Trucks been payed for for 2 years now.
Now it sits, busted, and I'm pissed.
I take care of my machines, now it's a boat anchor.
Apparently every mechanic knows about this problem and Dodge gets away with continuously making the 5.7 garbage motor. If I'd known the truck had a shelf life, I'd never bought a Dodge.
A work truck with a shelf life, No Thanks.
