it was only discovered because the oil pans on the DD16s are plastic and prone to breaking. They were cleaning out the old pan for warranty purposes ….
this is going to be very bad - now they have to tow it to a location that does major engine work and tear the thing down. What sucks is - I was just headed back to work after 3 weeks off - drive from AZ to TX to get back to the truck. They are telling me a week before they can even start the tear down to diagnose.
I have pulled every alarm and string to try and get them to start sooner - we will see. I am not likely to make any new friends over this thing especially service managers

didn’t you or a friend that was leased to you have to tear his down early on as well?cke, shooter19802003, DeereRunner97 and 6 others Thank this. -
I guy that leased on a bought a used one - and the dealer messed up do main bearings and had to buy a new 3/4 engine for it.
I have had great luck with my DD16s - this is my third in a row. Never had one go down except for a few sensors here or there. This is the first time any of my trucks has ever been on a hook.
they tell look on the bright side - I wasn’t loaded and stuck on the shoulder at 200k. -
I do know why this happened - I committed to helping a friend out and taking a load from KS to MD. The truck committed suicide just think about going through Ohio West Virginia (sorry @OLDSKOOLERnWV ) Pennsylvania and Maryland…

The road to hell is paved with good intentions, or so I hear.
