I do have rental coverage but the said since it wasn't anything to do with the insurance, they can't help. And for the mods, an intake , canned tune, and exhaust with not through out bearings. They have to cover my car unless they can prove it was something I did to mess it up. And I know the can download the data and see what was going on. I'm not worried. I wasn't doing anything extreme to the engine for it to fail like it did. 45k miles is low for this type of failure.
Well I went to the dealer the other day. They gave me my rental and they are putting a whole new engine in it. So the situation kinda turned itself around. Still suck that it has been in there over a month and I barely just got a rental. But I am getting a new engine....
Sucks that it is taking so long, but at least Dodge is making it good. I don't think I've heard of anyone spinning a bearing on these engines. That's an unusual failure.
Blew a motor a few years ago and it took 2 months.

We rebuilt it but swapping motors takes time!
Ok, so I may catch some flack for this but whatever. They are going to warranty the work on your car even though it was modded and you're complaining about a rental?

Do you not have rental coverage through your auto insurance? My car was just in the shop for 3 weeks and I paid $3 dollars a day for a rental through my insurance.
I agree

I would be thanking my lucky stars that they are covering a repair on a modded engine

That's what I'm saying, then he's talking about trading the vehicle and not getting another Dodge because they aren't taking care of him. He'll be in for a rude awakening when he mods his next car,has problems because of mods, and the dealer denies his warranty because of it. IMO they've more than taken care of it by replacing a 7k+ engine on their dime.
