First dealer tried that starter crap on me, that’s when I was finally feed up and took it away from them!!!!! (headed to another)

No details yet, but dealer is saying it is an engine problem. More to come tomorrow I hope.

 

[Fsmith246]

Engine failure. Dealership sent a request for replacement to MoPar. Truck has 96.5K miles on the 100K MP warranty.

Guess I just have to wait and see what happens.

That sucks. Is this your 2015? I assume it's past the 5 year mark. Do you have an extended warranty? I hope they take care of it.

 

[Fsmith246]

I do have the extended MoPar Warr up to 100K. Current milage is 96.5K

I don't know why they wouldn't, but there does seem to be a lot of challenges reported on the forum about denied warr claims.

I guess will just have to see what happens.

Warranties are based on time and mileage. Is the extended warranty good for 5 years/100,000 miles, or 7 years/100,000 miles, or 8 years/100,000 miles?

That's great. You should be covered. Keep us posted.

 

[Fsmith246]

Yup. Warr till Aug. 2023 and mileage until 100K

Once mine was confirmed, engine replacement needed, I literally had the engine shipped and replaced within a week and a half. Brand new crate motor not a rebuild.

Wow! That would almost be to good to wish for. Since I have no other vehicle I certainly would hope for that.

How long did it take to get yours confirmed for replacement?

Was this a recent replacement or before the current engine shortage/backorder status

Nice pics. Thanks
Curious: Your profile is showing a 2022 Rebel. Did you replace the truck with this one or add to the stable? If you replaced it, was there a problem with the replacement engine install?

No problem, other than they wiped my gde 😀,
I put another 35k on her and got a great trade price ordered a Laramie, didn’t like the seats and ordered the Rebel.

 

[Fsmith246]

Great. Appreciate your letting me know. Obviously I'm a little, shall we say "wondering" at this point as to how it will go. Hopefully well. We'll just have to wait and see.

Thanks for all your input.

Just and FYI:
Dealership says MoPar has yet to show up to review/approve engine replacement. Hopefully they will show soon and not take a year to show up so another year to get an engine. Being stuck at home is not fun. Can't get another vehicle so sit and wait.

Most of the time, the service advisor contacts the area representative who approves warranty claims. The process is usually a simple phone call (or email) to start the process. Supporting documentation is requested to ensure that the service advisor and technician has fully completed all protocols. A decision is usually made within a few days after all the information has been submitted.

It seems odd (and very inefficient) that FCA's areas representative has to come in to approve something that can be done remotely.
