Haven't I read a few places where folks were having an issue offroad where they'd fire up their Jeep and would get a false indication that the DEF was almost empty when it wasn't? I'm betting that is what this will end up addressing. Maybe a new float valve in the DEF tank or maybe just a software update or something.
All just my speculation since I don't see anything posted online about a Y81 recall yet.

I suspect the pump is dumping DEF too much which is why some people get such terrible mpg of DEF

Under the parts section It mentions a DEF injector needed.

Start date was 1/19. DEF inducement issues. My wife's '21 JLURD does not have that code coming up as an issue. IMO I agree it's something in the DEF pump.

No codes for me. But man can you smell the DEF being injected.

So, from what I've been able to find out, it seems like a Canadian only recall for the time being. I'm on a Ram forum where they posted that it has to do with DEF usage.

Yup on the FB group, Maple Leafs only
I believe it has to do with their emissions specs and laws.Sponsored

I have an appointment for the Y81 Wednesday at 1:30. I was under the impression from the service booking agent that it was just a re-flash.
I will let you guys know how I make out.

I follow Casey250 (canadian) on YouTube. He has had some issues with diesel. From what he has said on his channel, he burns DEF up 2x or more faster than I do and hes had issues with the jeep not starting because it thinks the DEF tank is empty when it is half full. Probably fixes these issues.
I watch my DEF level on my Banks iDash, and it fluxuates a lot, 20-30% difference for min/max. Clearly the sensor is in the back right because it will drop a little on right turns and drops a lot when parked downhill. I've been watching it because of the issues he's had.

OK just got back from the Y81 recall seems it was just PCM re-program. Covered under warranty.
Only cost me a windshield - I saw the rock comming even ducked - like that would make a difference.
Does anyone know if you can get a replacement that doesn't have a rock magnet? This is the second big hit in 2 weeks.

just got a call from my dealership. They just want to reprogram the PCM. They got a mobile unit coming out next week. Hopefully it doesn't change the consumption of it. I'm not using a whole lot of it.
