What owners say
Motor started making a knocking noise after getting gas and sounds has broke in motor and is making a tapping noise bad
Vehicle shut off while driving causing loss of steering and braking. It gave code for bank 2 knock sensor and oil viscosity wrong. It would not start. Noticed smell from under passenger side. Found insulated harnessing in passenger side had caught fire possible due to short to chassis. Wiring was all in oem state, found no standoffs present to keep harness off chassis on horizontal run, standiffs are present in vertical run by oil filter. Replaced section of harness and documented with pictures. This is a hazard to all dodge owners, flame in very close proximity to oil filter. I have documented all with photos and request compensation for my work to repair.
