Consumer Description

THE LIFTERS IN MY 3.6 LITER RAM 1500 ARE BAD AT 80000 MILES. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM REPORTED WITH THIS ENGINE IN 2011-2013 DODGE VEHICLES. DODGE KNOWS THIS IS STILL A PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY LOWERED THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY FROM 100000 MILES TO 60000 MILES. THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THE ISSUES WITH THE 3.6 LITER ENGINE. THEY NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED AND MADE TO MAKE APPROPRIATE REPAIRS.
