Anyone else have any issue with the software update on ecodeisel. My 2014 has 129,000 miles and running well. I received a recall notice for software update, took rig to dealership, check engine light came on immediately after update, error code says intake manifold, dealership replaces, error code reads glow plug problem, replaced broken glow plug, error code then reads low pressure in cylinder....dealership tells me I need new engine at the cost of
$15, 000! It was running fine when I brought it in. Chrysler will kick in $7, 000, dealership kicks in $4000, and I'm on the hook for $3000 for a new engine. it was over on mileage warranty by 28,000 miles and time warranty by 3 weeks. Frustrated, to say the least.

My guess is the glow plug or Intake of something related to the Work.....remove the engine and check the bad hole, if injector related your on the hook for the $$$$$, if debris tell dealership to Pay ALL....
