If you own a 2011 Ram, you know the issue with the weak manifold bolts. What really gets me pissed is the fact that when the tech listened to the truck, within 10 seconds he said it sounded like broken manifold bolts. Either an amazing savant tech, or he was familiar with the issue. After doing a search online, it became obvious to me that Fiat Chrysler and their dealerships were well aware of the issue. It is certainly not a normal wear item. Like the TIPM issue, the fix was not cheap, and I am left to surmise that is the reason it is not a recall item. Same as the TIPM issue. So, another $1800 for some new bolts to add to the $2000 for the new TIPM.

Sad to see the "head-in-the-sand" lack of accountability. I am sure that such a large corporation does not care, but I will not spend any more money on MOPAR as a result

I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER DAMN DODGE EVER AGAIN!

This problem should have been a recall and has happened to every 2011 dodge ram owner I know. The manifolds are weak from heat and expanding from excessive heat causes bolts to break on the head and get stuck in the head. Special tool needed to remove bolts. Dodge will not fix it and will not recall it...

DO NOT BUY A DODGE RAM, THEY ARE SH*T. That's not my only problem. I will flood all sites with this review if dodge don't fix this problem. I am a college student and spent 25,000 on this piece of sh*t.

Solution: Replace manifolds or hell, buy headers cause they are better and cheaper. Replace ALL studs in engine heads at exhaust ports. Make sure your exhaust system isn't to tightly held, it needs to flex a bit to avoid this happening again. I believe another culprit to this could be weak engine mounts for that giant ass HEMI....
