Welcome.


It's your first post. Since you say "our" problems, you start. What problems are you having?


As for me, there have been no problems. Got mine in early March as one of the first delivered. Close to 10K miles right now. I can talk a lot on what is good. Engine negatives are literally nonexistent.

Welcome to the site. You'll find lots of great people and information here. What kind of problems are you having with your truck?
being as detailed as we can be will also help, including things like production date
My check engine light came on for 2nd time in less than 4,000 miles

Whats the code? i know others have had the same issue. i think it was a loose connector.
Im not sure about the code, the dealer only said They dont know how fix the problem
There's supposed to be some kind of reflash for the sensor issue. Seems it might be a software glitch.


Just drive the thing. Not much of a solution but for now, that seems to be the conclusion.

That's what i was thinking when it comes to this. Just have to wait for a fix or take some action to influence a fix coming out.
the only complaint I have is after I got it home and found two small paint runs and a dent when the light hit the rear of the cab. Service at Chrysler fixed it all up.

Ignoring the check engine light doesn't sound like a rational "fix". Welcome to the world of FIAT...fix it again, Tony!!! Loose connectors, bad software, mechanics that aren't trained properly...sounds like Chrysler will be up for sale again...and soon! (Anyone in China listening in???)
I have 4000km on mine and have no issues at all as of yet, I even put an oil catch can mod on it and it didn't throw a code. Runs great and has lots of grunt for what I need, makes me glad i didn't buy a gas truck again every time I hook onto something.

This emissions light that I hear everyone talk about, I wouldn't be happy about it but I wouldn't worry about it either, I have bought several new vehicles in the past that were normally aspirated gas and had an emissions and it was always looked after in time.

After reading my quote you quoted, I noticed my comment wasent clear: I could only see the dent and runs when I looked at different angles and the light/shine would show image refractions and shines from the runs. no check engine light was on. My bad, the comment was not worded correctly.
