10% biodiesel in Minnesota
Minnesota has mandated 10% biodiesel. How is that going to affect the engines? It will go to 20% later on. cdru

My 2012 says no more then 5%. I wrote to Chrysler (Ram) and they sent me a very long email back saying bad stuff will happen to my motor and it would void my warranty. In the area I live in I use to buy a lot of fuel at Wal Mart but again they are selling up to 20% bio. Glad I got an aux tank and there are plenty of places selling 5% and less fuel. Been to Minnesota many times no need to go back.
Chrysler sent you complete a bull**** letter then. Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act.
A vehicle’s warranty cannot be voided solely due to the use of biodiesel. Even if the manufacturer recommends a blend of 5% biodiesel and a customer uses a higher blend such as 20% or 99% biodiesel, this does not void the warranty. If a customer uses a blend of biodiesel that is not recommended, that in and of itself, does not void the warranty. If the biodiesel is not the cause of the engine or parts failure, the warranty must be honored (assuming the failure is not the result of another external factor).
I feel the same way about Florida, if it weren't for family there I would NEVER go back.
