Component	ENGINE
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Dodge 5. 7l hemi engines have 2 common, recurring issues. 1) engine lifters fail prematurely causing excessive wear on the camshaft lobes. The end result is a costly repair having to replace the camshaft and lifter. A check engine light will come on and will throw a p030# code for a misfire on cylinder(s). When the misfire happens the vehicle starts shacking horribly. I have seen a report that a 2016 with 15k miles had the issue all the way back to 2009 with only 72k miles and several in between. There are multiple forums, threads, and comments on this issue. It seems very common and dodge should be providing assistance outside of warranties. Yet they choose to do nothing except lose customers. 2) the recurring exhaust manifold bolts breaking. Mine was repaired once under warranty and is currently having the issue again. Again dodge seems to do nothing to improve the materials to prevent the issue from recurring.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
