Interesting, mine is a 21k miles for a 21’
I wonder if I should even bother to reach out. Or wait till I have an issue. I have a Mopar extended warranty on it for a few more years.
I was using fuel additives to help with lubricity for the stock fuel pump. ,hotshots, archoil ,and others, before I had the recall done. The dealership said that caused the buildup in the dpf. Wanted to charge me about $3500 to replace it. Since they couldn’t prove that’s what caused it, they replaced it under warranty.

Very interesting, I had some hotshot that I just used for the first time in a long time. Maybe it’ll work itself out. I forgot I added that right before this started.

Thats non-sense. None of those would cause dpf buildup.
