Here is a pic of the filler plug installed.
I asked the service manager what is the biggest issue they are seeing with the EcoDiesels. He told me that the biggest issue they are seeing is users running the DEF dry and the truck shutting down.
Most people are use to Gas trucks and didn't understand the need to fill DEF. He also said that they have not had any EcoDiesels come
Back for a major issue. I am not sure if that's accurate information or not but it's what the service manager said.
Thanks!

During the early release of the Ed's I saw no recurring problems that were diesel related. Last year, there was a big stink (literally) over some bad coolant but wasn't diesel exclusive. I'm aware of one new ed with a water pump failure (odd) & another with a gasket leak, a turbo leak & an ugly electronic problem resulting in the tranny locking up in a really bad place. All seemed to be isolated problems & probably not any worse than any other product. With the introduction in the grand Cherokee last year, there has been time to work out any gremlins. By the way, not sure what part of tenn you're from but an Atlanta dealer is advertising $6500 discounts on crew cabs.
