Because it's junk now. Instead of making them fancier with all of these unnecessary electrical things. How about just make them reliable. Why not a fn 300k warranty?

Am I the only one that thinks if a vehicle sits at a dealership for warranty or recalls that every day it sits there should be added to the warranty term?

@ Krs, I agree, I had to go to the dealership today because they weren't taking my call, but they had to order the parts he said that it might be here in about two months, whattttttt, are you kidding me, it is what it is I guess. The dealer said that what it is, is the dipstick sometime can blow out when it gets too hot and might cause a fire, but he said that he hasn't. heard of any truck causing fire, hmmm, he said that if I just drive around town and not tow where the engine gets too hot, I will be okay.

So here we go again playing the waiting game so I guess I will wait, I mean, what choice do I have, if I were a betting man I would bet that another one will come soon.
So what if you bought your truck to tow. You know like most do especially being one of the main reasons for purchasing it rather than a Honda Civic.

I bet it would be worth bringing that up with a lawyer. The way it is getting now one may have left their truck at the dealership for up to 6 months during the warranty period. I would laugh if it brought on a class action.

Truck isn't going to be at dealer for two months, you are just waiting for parts. It isn’t going to catch fire if you don’t overheat it. You don’t even have a CP4.

Why continue to gripe? If you hate the truck so much, sell it and buy a different one. 🤷🏻‍♂️
I am aware that this instance it isn't at the dealership waiting for parts. But for many it is the situation.

My '15 had a number of recalls.. tailgate, fuel pump, turbo actuator, 3 reflashes, and at least 2 other things I cant remember. It also had a bunch of warranty work... rear main seal, ball joints before 20,000 kms, actuator, seat belt 2x's, back up camera, mirror screen, cargo camera, fuel filter sensor, and a bunch of other things I can't remember ( One trip alone to the dealer had 14 items). On none of those occasions did the dealer have my truck for more than a day or 2. They ordered parts and called me in for 8am appt when they had the parts in. Usually I had the truck back by noonish. Rear main took 2 days. Its a lack of organization and ethics at the dealer if you are leaving a truck for long periods of time...
Maybe you need a dealer like mine... Zero parking available!!!!! so everything is in and out and pick ups when the work is done are ASAP.
None of those things should be happening. Outrageous number of things going wrong with a vehicle so new. It is sad how people are ok with this. Pathetic actually.

Hello,

Dodge Cares is certainly not a bot. Should you have any further questions or concerns, please let us know. Thank you

Why are the new "trucks" such garbage? Lifters failing, engines and transmissions on backorder, injection pump failures after seeing all the problems Ford and Chev had with the CP4. Why did you guys ruin the Cummins? It's literally the main reason there is any dodge/ram pickups on the road.

If it was a quality product the warranty would be better. Like 300000kms 10years. The emissions would atleast have the same warranty as the engine.
