Fiat-Chrysler America refused to cover the DEF repairs, even though they say that they are covered in the warranty manual. The EPA also concurred that they are required to be covered. FCA refused despite the EPA insistence. I eventually got FCA to pay for half of the repairs. My only other recourse would have been a lawsuit. So instead I sold the truck and vowed to never buy another Fiat-Chrysler product. |
