| Description of the problem | July 21 2017 8:00 pm near chama new mexico pulling a 10,000 pound fith wheel trailer climbing a mountain pass the truck chimes flashes a warning and goes into reduced power mode with no previous warning ( very unsafe condition with location and warning) this diesel truck was designed to pull a trailer ??? After research we limped off of the mountain pass warnings were the flashed on the dash that to clean the exhaust filter we needed to drive as we did to no avail, stopped for the night unhooked the trailer land we were able to partially clean the exhaust filter with no load on the vehicle. After the trip we had the truck checked at the purchasing dealer the did a manual regeneration of the exhaust filter this is a safety concern not being able to maintain the emissions system within normal maintenance. |
