Here is another tidbit for the Ram Mafia to chew on. Yet another possible recall ?

    Lets hope not, that's one reason I step away from certain post. One thing that I have known from 43 years is... anything man made will have issues, some worse then others but man made..... I still think Ram builds a good truck, despite liking GMC/Chevy. Cummins is a great engine, and despite peoples personal feelings all trucks have issues time to time. Sometimes we all need to just sit back and thank God that we can live this good and camp.



    Pot stirrin, I guess if thats what you call it, still a fact with these new Cummins, and Jimnlin you own how many 2013-15 Cummins powered Rams ??? If so you must not have had a DEF issue yet ???

    Personal feelings,is that what it is when I have had two DEF issues, and the DEF was checked ,and okay.:h Personal feelings is that what it is, with yet another recall coming on my 2014 3500 Ram Cummins with 25K on it. This will make the 7th recall. I hardly call this personal feelings, shouldn't we just call it the facts on the emission systems on these trucks, it a long ways away from my personal feelings.

    No doubt the cummins is a great engine, no question, but there are other factors involved. That great engine will not do you a lot of good when your emission system goes bad. It always seems post like yours usually comes from someone that has not had an issue or for that matter does not even own the truck in question

    I guess I could be like the Ram Mafia members on here, and admit nothing bad about the Ram

    It was the first I saw it , my point is the recall for emission system 2013-15 Ram Cummins. Some down play this ,but its an issue with these trucks, and not a good one at that.

    I didn't realize it wasn't a live link when I posted, different forums different results when copy, and paste. Never the less its a serious issue with these Cummins powered trucks.

    We have members all the time asking about possible problems with the Ram cummins, some like to paint a rosy picture. There is nothing rosy about watching the countdown on your truck ,and how many miles you have left before going into the 5mph limp mode. Not a good thing when you are an X amount of miles from a dealer, and towing a large fifth wheel on a freeway.
