Was reading on another site about a potential replacement parts shortage for the Eco. He had an electronic throttle control signal flash, turns out it was an exhaust sensor. But thats not really the issue at hand, seems that Chrysler is restricting parts orders on warranty work. They are only allowing one part to be ordered per warranty claim according to him...

Not sure just what is happening, anyone can shed some light on this?

That's not good, maybe it's to do with whoever supply's them with their parts since a lot of things are usually outsourced

Like with anything new, parts are usually scarce at first; but hopefully parts should become readable in the near future.

Why would they limit it to one part per order? What if you need two parts in order to fix your vehicle? Seems like a strange restriction to make.

when is there ever not a parts shortage for a new model

It's one of those things where it seems like there is a delay more often than it getting there on time.

That's how I feel about the TTC (Toronto subway). It seems to be delayed more than it is on time.

at least they have everyone's money from buying the truck, not much of a loss here, also why it pays to wait and not be an early adopter.

FYI...went to local stealership $56 for oil filter!!!
It's a canister type filter, you only get the element, the casing is reused, like the fuel filters on the Cummins.

I wouldnt worry about this for the long term, i'm sure that aftermarket filters will become available. I'm going to call Geno's garage to see if they will stock oil and fuel filters. I hope they did not sell me a fuel filter, because it looks similar to the ones for my 6.7. The guy at the sales desk checked three times so I assume its the right one.

Has anyone done a oil change and can confirm this?
