I was traveling out of my normal range last week and as I headed back home I got a DEF system message on my EVIC that said to see dealer. I called the local dealer's service desk and he said to bring it by and they'd see what the code was and how important it was. The scanned it and said it could be either bad DEF ( which I had just filled up on the trip a day or two earlier from a pump) or the SCR was bad. They said it was usually the SCR and got me rental so I could continue my trip home (only a 2.5 hr drive).

Went and picked it up today with no issues (covered by factory warranty too, including the rental). They didn't record the code on my paperwork or I'd pass that along. They did say the engine would eventually derate itself and eventually not start.

All this to say Corwin Dodge in Springfield Mo did good by me. I'm happy with them and the way the treated me knowing they'd probably not see me again.
 
My Scr catalyst was replaced at 7000 miles kept getting codes and the dealer thought it was bad urea. Kind of a little worrying that it only lasted 7k They did remove the ammonia sensor per a TSB. They had to change the emissions label under the hood to reflect the new changes. The dodge dealer in The Dalles OR. did the repair as I was traveling. They knew right what to do and got me in and out in a day!
 
Funny how this happens when one is on a trip. just two weeks ago I took the family on a 6600km road trip in 12 days and on the first day, in the first 160 kms, engine light comes on. I stop at the next city and check the code with my code reader and it was a P20EE -"SCR NOx Catalyst efficiency below threshold bank 1". Needless to say after some searches here and on the web, I was left thinking doom and gloom for the night waiting till morning so I could go to the nearest dealer in the city I was in so they could check things over thinking that I would have to get a new SCR and it wouldn't be available for a few days. Needless to say they treated me good and got me in and out within 45 minutes!!! they did a ref lash that my truck needed and I carried on for the rest of the road trip and it hasn't come back,,,, YET.
Why while ones away from home do these things decide to happen?????
