OK....just got home from a long weekend without my Wheels! Drove about 100 miles with a medium trailer and something toasted. 11k miles on the odo. The dip stick was 4-5 quarts overfull with a mixture of oil and fuel. Blew major oil and fuel out the draft tube on the bottom of the engine and covered my chassis and trailer with goo. Any one hear of whats up with this. The tow truck driver said it was the 3rd new Dodge in the past thirty days dragged back to boise with the same issue. A side note to this would be the **** poor service at Sundance Dodge in Boise. Called me back Mon. morning to ok a couple hundred dollars start to fix it. Said they needed to change oil and fuel filter to dignose the iissue. I told him to pound sand and the other local dealler where I bought the thing sent a flatbed to take care of it. (thanks Stampeed). Fuel in the crank case sounds like it could be a long term issue. Any advice would be appreciated..............

 

Go to page 4 of this same forum, I posted a thread call 3rd Generation Must Read. You can read about this there. Sorry about the truck. I believe it is bad injectors.

Sorry to hear about your bad luck!! Good luck getting it resolved.

 

Was your truck completely stock?

 

yes all stock....waiting to here back today on the diagnosys. Dealer thinks it might be stuck injector. What ever the outcome...Isnt fuel in the oil a bad thing...I have heard from a number of different people different things like deisel fuel wont break anything down and some say the opposite....Can anyone tell me the right answer. My thoughts are that it might not affect it early on but it probably took a few years off its life.

 

It just depends on the exstent of the damage, you could have a hole in the side of your engine. This is happening fairly often you should speak to the dealership and let them know that you are aware that this is happening, I personally would want a new engine. And yes fuel in the oil is bad.
