Im not impressed with this new not so good technology that is called a DPF filter. This doesn't just cost fuel economy, but other things. I think with all the extra fuel the trucks are using this is harder on the enviroment, as well as the additional fuel for the tow truck that has to tow your truck to the dealer.
I was on the way to the car wash just entering the building, my truck display said, shutting down safley, well it wasn't too safe, it just quit, no power steering and not much for brakes. Thanks to the guy who dragged me out of the line. And to AMA for there assistance. They brought out a flatdeck truck and took my truck back to my office which was only a few blocks away. I thought is was a security issue or somthing. So I got my extra key and tried, unhooked battery and then rehooked up. And nothing. So I got my code reader and found a few new codes, one of them said overheated catalyst, engine shut down. The rest are sensors. Well, looks like I need another tow, so called AMA again, and there policy is 1 tow per breakdown, but they overlooked that and towed me to the dealer. So now Im out a truck. The driver has recently seen this alot to all the Big Three manufactures, there filters are all plugging up and leaving the driver stranded. This is as stupid as all the additional fuel and other problems that arise from this.
