2025 Ram 5500 Parked! Update

EGT sensor. Bank 1 sensor 5
I think the following ... if someone above the dealer with a bit of clout decided to fix this, there HAS to be a sensor available somewhere that could be overnite shipped in, installed the next day, and a call to Mr. HDFarmer saying "sorry for your trouble, your truck is fixed and ready to be picked up now".

I'd suggest asking the dealer for a regional Canada contact you can make, if they don't provide that should be easy enough to find someone to call with an online search. This just can't keep going on ...
 
Oh well it got better today, sensor showed up installed with no change Apparently the schematic is wrong. As per the code that comes up(bank 1 sensor 5) sensor 5 is actually sensor 7 so a totally different module Service bulletin incoming. Been trying to replace wrong sensor. Sure hope the techs get a clothing allowance so they can buy a helmet for when they’re beating their head on the wall.

Would you be able to post DTC code that was active?
 
I have no doubt that Ram is experiencing a quality control problem with parts. Until they weed out the sub par actors this will continue. I also believe there are suppliers that still take pride in what they do and I applaud them for that. It seem we live in world where you no longer have to be good at your job, you just have to show up. I’m hopeful Ram makes this right because I’ve lost to much revenue already
