Have the same on my 2013 RAM 3500 Cummins with 180Amp alternator.
Have this on and off for two months already.
Both batteries pass the check test.
What I noticed that as soon as you start the car (does not matter on cold or on hot) the charging gauge goes up and down for the first one-two minutes. Than it stabilizes on 14V for the rest of the trip. And thats until you turn the vehicle of.
The Battery Save Mode might or might not come on. I think it comes on for me when the ambient temperature is lower than 34F, but I might be wrong.
Do not know what it could be. And since the charging system is not under warranty any more I did not go the dealer.
