not saying this isnt an issue.... it apoears to be one......
BUT, i saw and read what the issue is realky quick in comments.
now comes the 127 out of how many units total....
now we're into the one airplane flight down a day.... woukd you fly again? DR loses 1 in 10 patients doing surgery, another is 1-1000 for same procedure......
With my blathering here. The clip issue in trans is and woukd be more of s concern that the video with comments making it apoear to be an over idling issue, which WILL cause issues with any manufactures diesel in a light duty vehicle ie under DOT class 3/14000 gvwr.

So this is for specifically 2022 models, not "late models"? From my reading it appears to be 2022 and mostly last quarter builds. Not quite the sky is falling, and it does seem to be covered by Ram, or did I miss where people are having to pay for the failure out-of-pocket?

Warranty is covering the repairs if they fail early.

127 that we know about from one site that is tracking it...how many failures are really out there? I'm not saying the sky is falling...but it is if this happens to you ![frown [emoticon]](https://forums.goodsamclub.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/frown.gif)
My 2017 Ram has been a great truck and only had one repair so far and that was a leaking front axle seal on the passenger side.
I'm at 60,000 miles with over 34,000 miles of that towing my fifth wheel.
My 2017 Aisin has been a great transmission...but something changed with a part and has caused a lot of difficult problems for people who need this truck for work or full timing.

so now we are going to parse what "late model" means...

We can be exact with numbers, but not with years? Late model implies several years, this issue seems to be limited to 1 year, and mostly last quarter. What's wrong with being precise?

It seems to me there is an issue of concern.
Only Ram knows the extent of the problem. Ram is never going to yell from the mountain top that there is a lifter issue unless they are forced to do so for some reason. At this point it's Buyer beware.
The kicker is for the cost of these trucks all issues should resolved quickly vs. trying to conceal or deny the issue exist.
Having a $80-100K truck in the shop with no answers is a MAJOR problem.
