I work at a dealer an I’ve only seen one Aisin failure. I see far more emmisions failures than anything, DPF, sensors, etc!
Before I bought the MH I was looking for a 6.4 gas truck specifically to get away from an issue while on the road.

It seems to me there is an issue of concern.
Only Ram knows the extent of the problem. Ram is never going to yell from the mountain top that there is a lifter issue unless they are forced to do so for some reason. At this point it's Buyer beware.
The kicker is for the cost of these trucks all issues should resolved quickly vs. trying to conceal or deny the issue exist.
Having a $80-100K truck in the shop with no answers is a MAJOR problem.


Ahh I see you dropped a line in the water too…pro tips for free from FishonOne how to create better bait though….

Throwin out new bait…hoping to hook another fish….lol


Cummins12V always reported that hot shots all run Dodge/Ram cummins because they're the best, so with that in mind; I'm sharing a hot shots experience with his fleet of new Ram cummins trucks.

^ Funny thing is, as soon as that video was finished, the next one auto loading was “2022 7.3 Godzilla. Don’t buy one, you’ll regret it”. Lol

Not me, the dealer. And seeing as how we do a lot of the HD trucks you would think with them having a higher than normal failure, we would see alot. We don’t! And we do alot of hotshot trucks.

^Right? Lol

I don’t darken dealer service bay doorsteps very often, but having had a couple dozen new trucks in the last couple dozen years, I get to sometimes unfortunately.
And they’ve “never seen this issue” more often than not. Hahaha

Never said that, you need to keep track of my posts like "FISH" does. I did say they had two I believe. They replaced both trans no question as they had bad castings causing internal bleeding if I remember correctly.

Truth!!!!!! Is my trans did NOT fail from any issue with the trans. Mechanic did not follow proper seperation and assembly to replace weeping gasket. So again you need to keep files of what I have said like "FISH" does. [emoticon]
