There is a design flaw with the block geometry, which leads to a condition where the rollers on the Lifters do not receive proper lubrication, eventually cease, and wear out the Cam. This happened to me on Sunday, June 4, 2023, while I was pulling out of a busy intersection, had a misfire, lost significant power, and slimly avoided a major car accident. The cost of the repair is still being evaluated; however, it will likely be measured in thousands. The safety issue is the real concern. RAM knows about this problem, continues to do nothing about it, and would not budge when I asked for assistance with this repair.

While driving,usually slowing from highway speed,all safety lights turn on on the dash board (cross traffic,anti collision,rear parking,ignition,stabilitrak,check engine).Also vehicle loses power and you can not accelerate.Engine runs on (assuming) 4 cylinders as it starts shaking like it’s misfiring.After you pull over and restart the engine all lights clear except check engine.Vehicle than runs normal.Check engine has cleared twice on me.Once after about 30 and second time after about 50 miles.In both instances I was away from home and had to drive back.The other few times was only a few miles away from dealer.Vehicle is currently at the dealer (7th time) with 35775 miles.Multiple tickets have been opened with FCA.In my own research I have found online forums with identical issues.The dealer is at the liss.Their techs can’t figure it out.They have replaced multiple parts but the issue remains. NOTE:Your system allows me to select three issues at the start of this form but I have three more under ADAS category that I was unable to select.
