This is kind of a bummer but thought I would put it out there just in case someone else runs into this.
By no means is this a truck bashing post. I love my truck and everything about it. Would I buy it again? In a heartbeat. I knew prior to buying it that, like any first edition, there was a potential for issues and the 2019 owners are more or less participants in a mass trial.
Anywho, a week ago the check engine light came on at 5600ish miles. I did all of the normal immediate things like check my fluids and made sure everything looked ok. I called my local service department and he told me as long as the engine light is not flashing, drive it for another 80-100 miles and see if it goes away. I was a little hesitant but I figure, hey its under warranty so if something bad happens, it's on their dime. If the light start flashing, stop immediately and tow the vehicle to the dealer.
Drove for about 80 miles and made an appointment when the light didn't go away. They ran for error codes and thought it was an oxygen sensor. This didn't fix it. They tried another component of which I can't remember. No fix. They determined after talking with headquarters that a new wiring harness is needed. They need to special order it and then keep the truck for 2 weeks, separate the body from the chassis and replace it.
I will be posting an update to this once I have the repairs completed.
