Getting ready to replace the 6.7 Cummings Grid Heater before the loose bolt falls into the engine and grenades it. It’s been a known issue since 2007. Why did Stellantis not generate a recall for this issue. If it fell off while I was driving It would expose me to a dangerous and potentially fatal condition. Are you investigating this issue.

I am reporting a suspected odometer fraud involving a 2014 Ram 2500 Laramie 4WD with a 6.4L HEMI engine that was advertised for sale for $17,200. The seller advertised the truck as having approximately 110,000 miles, and when I inspected it in person, the dashboard odometer displayed approximately 109,000 miles. Before purchasing the vehicle, I checked its VIN history using CARFAX and a second vehicle history website. The records showed that the truck had approximately 220,000 miles recorded about two years earlier, which is more than double the mileage currently displayed on the odometer. I verified this discrepancy using two separate sources and decided not to purchase the vehicle. The truck appeared clean, and a pre-purchase inspection mechanic also examined it, but the mileage discrepancy raised serious concerns that the odometer may have been tampered with or the vehicle's mileage misrepresented. I am submitting this report so the discrepancy can be investigated.

On September 30, 2026, a Ram dealership completed the Emissions Recall 67A / VB6 software flash on my vehicle. Following the precise instructions listed in the official 67A Recall Owner Notification, I submitted a request for reimbursement for an out-of-pocket NOx sensor replacement that I paid for on March 4, 2022, prior to the recall’s release. The documentation review team has twice issued a boilerplate denial stating: “The repairs were made prior to the effectivity of the extended warranty. We will not be able to reimburse those out-of-pocket repair expenses at this time.” This denial reason is a catastrophic error in regulatory compliance: Confusion of Terms: The review team is mistakenly evaluating a Pre-Recall Reimbursement Claimunder standard, future Extended Warranty (XQ1) rules. Chronological Impossibility: By definition, a pre-recall repair must take place prior to the recall's execution. The 67A federal recall framework explicitly mandates that Stellantis reimburse owners for valid, out-of-pocket expenses incurred to fix the defect before the recall software flash was available. Regulatory Violation: Failing to honor valid prior-repair reimbursements directly violates the court-ordered emissions settlement guidelines established with the EPA and CARB. The frontline recall phone team stated they have no power to override the documentation department, and the documentation department is refusing to read the text of my appeal, simply copy-pasting the same invalid rejection code. I have met every legal prerequisite. The recall is completed and closed on my VIN, and my attached itemized invoice proves a professional NOx sensor replacement occurred.

Drag link recall for my 2014 Ram 2500 was performed in 2019 and failed in 2024 causing the steering component to became loose while driving. When I had it "re-fixed" by Folsom Lake Dodge and Chrysler dealership they re-welded it without aligning the steering column so my steering wheel has been off ever since(not centered). This needs to be fixed not band aided.

On 5/28/2019 Recall V06 was completed on my 2014 Dodge Ram 2500. As part of that repair the adjustment nuts on the steering drag link were welded to prevent loosening and potential separation. On 3/3/2026 I had new front suspension components installed by Les Schwab Tire Center. During that service the technician advised a wheel alignment could not be performed because the welded drag link nuts prevented the steering linkage from being adjusted. Alignment is normally required after front suspension work and necessary for proper steering geometry. Les Schwab advised that grinding the welds off the drag link to perform the alignment and then rewelding the component would be unsafe because it could introduce hidden stress or cracking in the steering component. They recommended replacing the drag link with a Moog DS801538A redesigned component. The drag link had to be replaced to restore normal steering adjustment and allow the vehicle to be properly aligned. On 3/3/2026 I requested reimbursement from Dodge/Chrysler for the drag link replacement required due to the recall repair. The request was denied. On 3/4/2026 Chrysler representatives acknowledged the welded drag link rendered the vehicle unserviceable for alignment yet still denied reimbursement. Chrysler’s Vehicle Alignment Clarification Letter states that after the recall repair, owners should still be able to obtain an alignment using an approved procedure. In my case, however, the welded drag link prevented any adjustment necessary to perform that procedure, making the vehicle unserviceable for alignment until the drag link was replaced. The recall repair rendered a steering component non-adjustable and prevented normal service, leaving the vehicle less serviceable than before the recall repair. Documentation and photos are attached.

Incident: November 26, 2025 · Filed: January 7, 2026

Check engine light came on end of November 2025 and stayed on. Immediately I took the truck to two different independent mechanics. They both said it was a problem with the turbocharger but I never received a recall regarding this. They both said I could still drive it and that it would not leave me stranded. The last recall done was the 67A a year ago. There are currently no recalls for my particular vehicle through the NHTSA. The truck is currently having the very expensive turbocharger replaced by one of the independent mechanics. Why wasn't I alerted to this problem?
