This issue was compounding as smaller problems lead to the complete engine failure, e.g., oil leaks from various locations, oil filter housing unit, radiator.

Dealer describes the engine ticking sounds as normal
Months later valve train failure
Warranty covers repair that takes a month and i get stuck with over $1000 in rental car bills.
Repair involved engine removal and replacing tappets, lifters and the cam shaft (service says some of these engines had "soft cams".. oh f'n great!!! good job Chrysler!
