well, i was driving down the i-10 (at about 70 mpg) on my way to Orlando to visit some family for thanksgiving and my truck all of the sudden threw a CEL and starting running like crap and had no power. cycled the key to find out code p2149 popped up. so now i'm stuck on the side of the highway. luckily i had a good friend w/ a gooseneck trailer that was able to come and pick me up. i was 2 hrs away from my house. I've done some searching but i hadn't found any treads where people came back on to let us know what happened to fix their problems. i've checked the connections for the injectors but it didn't change anything.

well, the dealer ended up screwing me on the deal. they said the #5 injector failed and the tech hadn't seen an injector fail like that before so he called dodge or cummins tech department and they told them the only way the injectors fail like that was if it had a tuner on it (which i don't yet). the manager said that he had no prof that it had one so they didn't void the warranty on the truck but they were not going to cover the 1k bill to replace the injector. i think this is BS! they should have paid this, i have done nothing to the truck to cause this. i didn't want to pay for this but i need to get my truck fixed so i could still make it down for the holidays (i'll be in the desert this time next year). so now i've got to try to see if i can get my money reimbursed. this is just frustrating!!!! i'll let ya'll know what happens.

 

I feel your pain. I have lost so many injectors on the '05 it's not even funny anymore. Mine were all covered thank goodness. I say fight them every step of the way, there is absolutely no reason for them not to cover it, and I am sure they have seen plenty of failures before. Last time I lost an injector, we had to wait over three weeks because they were on back-order again.

i think what happened was they saw my truck roll up on the trailer w/ stacks and they stereotyped me and tried to find anything they could to not cover it.

 

From what I hear these days, they try to find any excuse they can not to cover things. It's pretty sad really. I do hope you can get them to make good on this.

i hope so as well. thanks.

 

You can request a Chrysler rep to look at your truck to decide your warranty claim. But if your truck is modified especially engine they can put your entire truck on restriction. Chrysler can void your truck's warranty. Good Luck

 

Just did all six of mine $3000 NO WARANTY! parts only.Good luck with the warranty.
