2009, Dodge, Ram 2500, the vehicle only has 3,000 miles on it. * the diesel particulate filter warning light reads 80% full. The manual instructs the operator not to operate the vehicle when the warning light is on. The light comes on every three days. The dealer said they don't have a clear fix yet from Chrysler. * the malfunction indicator warning light came on. The manual instructs the operator not to operate the vehicle for a prolonged period with the warning light on. The dealer can not get the warning light to go off and said Chrysler has not come up with a fix for this yet. Chrysler took the complaint by phone on February 2, 2010, reference #19286219. They instructed me to listen to the dealer. The dealer told me to take the complaint to Dodge. I have a brand new vehicle with warning lights appearing instructing me not to operate the vehicle and Dodge doesn't have a fix.
