Ok guys, what's your thoughts on the 2025 Ram 1500 Hurricane engine having no dipstick. This also applies to the Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer. Basically all Hurricane inline 6 engines won't have it.
I posted a YouTube short, Instagram Reel and Tik Tok video. They are all blowing up with the Tik Tok seemingly on fire. (See graphic below)
The comments range from no dipstick, no sale to BMW, Mercedes, Volvo have been doing this for years, so no big deal.
I did have a friend reach out to share a story on a Jeep Wagoneer being stranded at the dealership for a week. Dealer thought it was a bad sensor and it turns out they overfilled the oil during an oil change. Apparently, they looked at the wrong spec chart for the engine. With no way to actually check the oil physically and the computer simply stating the engine oil was "full," it took time to actually figure out the issue. My response was I doubt this will be the last time we hear a story like that.
