Attention: TDR Forum Junkies There is more good news for Ram Turbo Diesel and Jeep owners with the VM engine. It comes to us from the following Autoweek article:
Jeep and Ram parent company Fiat Chrysler Automobiles filed an application featuring updated emissions software late last week for diesel emissions certification with the EPA. The filing came just days after reports of the Department of Justice preparing to take the automaker to court over the EPA's allegations of diesel emissions discrepancies in 2014-16 model year Jeep Grand Cherokee and Ram 1500 models. The EPA had earlier issued a Notice of Violation to the automaker in connection with claims of undisclosed "Auxiliary Emission Control Devices" (AECDs) in these models. FCA had been working on a software update for the trucks to resolve the issue and continue offering the two 3.0-liter diesel V6 models. Read more ... .
