I contacted the Road Safety Division of the Canadian Transportation Board.

I showed him a copy of the fix previously posted and so far he hasn't said he wouldn't implement it but he's hesitant to do so until he tries the normal dealer stuff.
My concern is that with the warmer weather coming on, it's less of a problem since windows are open more often, and it'll be next winter before they start taking the problem seriously. By then we'll have to start over again.

on the bright side by next fall they should have a fix developed and can implement it with available parts.

Is there any type of "Lemon Law" up in the Great White North that you could use? I have a friend down here in PA who had a Ford 6.0 for 6 months (2 months in shop) and Ford bought it back for the exact price that he paid for it. Your situation sounds much more serious and dangerous that just having a truck that ran like crap like my friend's.

The dealer suggested I call Dodge. When I talked to Dodge HQ on the phone they wanted to have me talk to their arbitration folks, to get me out of the vehicle. I said isn't that a bit severe? I have one problem and I'd like to know that is not a health and safety issue and that Dodge is working on it. It sounds to me like their getting a lot of “Lemon Law” requests.

Hey,
Did any of you guys ever come up with a fix for this? My wife is pregnant and it makes her sick to ride with me -- I mean, pull over and let her out sick! I inspected under my cowl and found that I do not have any of the four plugs. From the air freshener test, I feel that they will help quite a bit if I could find the part numbers. I spent an hour or two looking through parts and couldn't find anything at all.
Like the rest of you, I really need to figure out a fix for this. If anybody has any updated info, please let me know!
Thanks!!
David
