Description of the problem | Had to replace cylinder heads at 68000 miles, not due to wear and tear according to repair shop. 10 out of the last 12 dodge trucks into the shop have had to have the same thing done. I was told to keep my peperwork, because there is an obvious problem and they are seeing more and more dodge trucks with around the same mileage being brought in. Repair shop feels there probably will be a recall on them. Major problems with the dodge trucks.*ak |
