Hi All,

I have been having some trouble with my 2020 Ram. I had my first oil change around 3,200 miles using full synthetic at Dealership 1. Within the next 50 to 100 miles I got a check engine light and service auto start/stop. Took it Dealership 2 close to my work since I had a 100 mile drive after work. They said it was a stored code P0013, checked over the wiring, cleared the code and sent me on my way. They said it may or may not come back. Of course on the drive it came back. Got home and I had codes P0013, P3401, P3425, P3441 & P3449. Made another appointment with Dealership 2. By the time it went back into them the lights cleared themselves. This time they kept the truck for a week and couldn't find anything wrong with it other then the stored codes. I have drove the truck 75 to 100 miles and the codes are back again!!!

I need this truck this weekend. I'm driving to North Carolina. I don't have much confidence in Dealership 2. They have looked at the truck twice and haven't found a problem yet. I feel like I should take it back to Dealership 1.

P0013 - Bank 1 Camshaft 2 Position Actuator Circuit Open
P3401 - Cylinder 1 Deactivation/Intake Valve Control Circuit/Open
P3425 - Cylinder 4 Deactivation/Intake Valve Control Circuit/Open
P3441 - Cylinder 6 Deactivation/Intake Valve Control Circuit/Open
P3449 - Cylinder 7 Deactivation/Intake Valve Control Circuit/Open

Do you guys have any thoughts on the codes?

Thanks!
