Guess I can be added to the list of 2010 R/T timing chains breaking...While cruising to work at 70 mph, my egine just shut down, refused to start and thats all she wrote. After sitting at the closes Chrylser dealer for 2 week I was finally called with the diagnosis...since its under warranty I guess theres no hurry to get me back on the road...I just hope it gets fixed correctly! Wonder will DODGE reimburse me for the 2 week rental?
Just got the same info on my Challenger yesterday....wish they would just replace engine....guess I can expect the same same thing again in 40,000 miles
I believe RavenX started a thread requesting build dates to see if there is a link, Raven.... are you listening???
Yup, yup. Always listening.
I'm not tracking the build dates so to speak but rather the model years and mileage. Right out of the gate reports crossed over platform years, so tracking the build dates seemed rather pointless IMHO. That pretty much ruled out a bad batch of timing chains, etc., again IMHO. I am confident that the 2011's and 2012's will suffer the same fate as they get up there in mileage. I am really interested to see if the 392 autos become affected as they are carrying the same timing chain/tensioner/guide setup. I believe that they will.

Thank you for your help........
My parts should be here monday, several of the items were on backorder. Being on backorder could mean a whole list of things, however is this due to timing chain parts shortage??? Hmmmm..... Or maybe its a redesigned setup like a double roller that will last forever!!!! (sarc)
