When backing up a clunking noise emitted from differental. Dealer replaced fluid and added some "additive". did not correct problem. They kept truck to disassemble differental, found nothing amiss, replaced fluid and additive. At this time, all seems ok. The cost was $83.90. When they decided to keep the truck over night they thought it would be covered under warranty. However, it was out of pocket expense.

Ring & pinion gear failed. Dodge has more than 1200 on back order and cannot get the part. My part has been on order for 5 weeks. Local dealer confirmed that Dodge has sent them a notification to try to reset the ring & pinion gear as a fix rather than replace the part. Dodge customer service hotline will not confirm that they are having problems with this part.
