2022 Ram 2500 Engine Problems

“Engine had a tick, dealer said it was lifters. Dealer replaced lifters after having the truck for three weeks. Noise is back 2022 ram 6.7 with 17000 miles. This issue could cause engine failure at any speed and I use this truck to pull a large travel trailer. I’m concerned the noise is back and putting metal shavings into the engine will cause catastrophic engine failure at some point.”

“5th gen ram with the 6.7 Cummins diesel have a massive problem with lifters. Extremely common for trucks with under 10k miles needing the extensive repair done. I’ve read in some cases people whole motors breakdown due to this failure while on the highway pulling a load. My specific truck had to have all the lifters replaced at 76k miles. There needs to be a manufacture recall on these.”

“This recall has NOT been fixed by the dealer since I had it there December 20, 2021 with the original recall Y76. I’ve received two more recalls for the Intake Air Grid Heater Relay 13A, have taken it in for service 2x now for it and am told still that parts are on back order. I’ve been told this since December 2021.”

“Service def see dealer and max 5mph in 150 miles. Traveling on I-40 from East Tn heading home. 225 miles to go. On a Friday afternoon. Called dealers in area none could look at it until Monday. Stressing about possibility of going into derate at 5mph on interstate and getting rear ended. Had to rent a car and take to a dealer 160 miles from home. Spoiled my vacation because of a false warning about def level. All that was wrong was the code needed to be cleared.”

“The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor on my 2022 Ram 2500 failed, causing multiple system malfunctions. It triggered inaccurate Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) codes and showed abnormally high idle hours that do not reflect actual vehicle use. This defect is tied to a known issue identified by Stellantis in Technical Service Bulletin #18-002-24, which acknowledges improper MAF sensor calibration or compatibility on vehicles like mine. The bulletin was verbally confirmed by the dealership as applying to my truck. …”
