The powertrain warranty for this truck is for 5 years/60,000 miles. It hasn’t been disclosed who paid for the repairs.
I guess there are worse places to break down but at least you found out what the problem was. My folks were on a trip to Montana in their new Plymouth and the transmission went out. Got towed 70 miles to the dealer and then a few days layover for the transmission to be replaced. Stuff happens.
The thing is two different dealers looked at it and whether incompetence or not, neither found the problem. No one can guarantee a trouble free trip I guess. Some warranties will help with towing and hotel bills but other than that, I guess I would forget it.
Sounds like a case for the common sense lawyer. Truck is making a bad noise so lets load up the kids and drive a long distance and tow a heavy load and hope it all works out.
