It’s about to hit 4 years or 50k miles eh?!Desertbreh wrote: ↑Tue Jun 28, 2022 11:27 pm I have a PO440 Evaporative Emission System Code CEL on the BMW. Hmm. There is a large amount of shit that falls under emissions warranty in CA (turbocharger, for example) that is 7/70. I guess its time to book an appointment with my favorite doods at the local BMW dealer.
Way past that on years we are at 5.5. Most emissions parts are 7/70max225 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 29, 2022 12:03 amIt’s about to hit 4 years or 50k miles eh?!Desertbreh wrote: ↑Tue Jun 28, 2022 11:27 pm I have a PO440 Evaporative Emission System Code CEL on the BMW.

which includes a lot of major engine shit, turbos for instance. Will reset and see what happens.https://www.bmwusa.com/content/dam/bmwu ... rranty.pdfDesertbreh wrote: ↑Wed Jun 29, 2022 12:26 amWay past that on years we are at 5.5. Most emissions parts are 7/70
Yeah strangely the 3 and 7 series have one set of warranties, 2, 4 and 6 another. I reset the CEL and tightened the gas cap.max225 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 29, 2022 12:45 amhttps://www.bmwusa.com/content/dam/bmwu ... rranty.pdfDesertbreh wrote: ↑Wed Jun 29, 2022 12:26 am

The Cucktrek we bought last year didn't have issues, neither did the 4R. Vehicles further along in their lifecycle are probably the better ones to buy right now.
happened to Porsche ?! Only thing I can think of is the Taycan dragging them down …. then again … I never thought fca vehicles were as bad as their rep.I saw a guy in a widebody Challenger 392 this morning pull a hard left turn and hammer that thing like it had an Atlas Booster Rocket. I guess I can Mexican Gang Car comment all day long, but at the end of the day it looked like fun.max225 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 1:12 pmThis is really odd..Detroit wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:19 am Worst ever industry IQS from JD Power.

Dodge better than Lexus?!
Lower manpower at manufacturing facilities due to people being out sick means more shit gets through quality checks. I’m sure it was all relaxed in order to pump out as many cars as they could due to supply problems. Like how none of the doors line up or sit flush on my CRV that has been in production since 2016.Detroit wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:19 am Worst ever industry IQS from JD Power.

New product launches. Dodge hasn't launched a new product in...10 years? They've barely refreshed anything, so they know what they're building and how, and there's just not much else to it.max225 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 1:12 pmThis is really odd..Detroit wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:19 am Worst ever industry IQS from JD Power.

Lexus hasn’t launched much either during this study. Neither did Porsche other than the taycan.
Lexus had a new LX and NX (which is likely volume), so more than Dodge. Plus, luxury
tend to be more picky in IQS. Isn’t there an emissions warranty ?Huckleberry wrote: ↑Fri Jul 01, 2022 12:02 pm I just had a fuel injector fail on the wife's 2016 Cherokee with 40k miles on the clock. After looking online, it is becoming a common issue. It gave me a reason to replace the spark plugs since you have to pull the upper intake manifold to access both.
I tried calling about a goodwill warranty since it is only a year out of the powertrain's 5/60 and 20k miles under the limit, but was told fuel injectors aren't part of the powertrain. Oh well. $120 for the injector place $35 for new gaskets.
Yep. The federal 8 year warranty doesn't cover it. You'd think it would since a bad fuel injector negatively impacts emissions, but this feels like some sort of line that was drawn by corporate lobbyists.max225 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 01, 2022 1:08 pmIsn’t there an emissions warranty ?Huckleberry wrote: ↑Fri Jul 01, 2022 12:02 pm I just had a fuel injector fail on the wife's 2016 Cherokee with 40k miles on the clock.
