    Small Coolant Leak - 2012 RAM 3500 6.7L: https://www.igotacummins.com/threads...-RAM-3500-6-7L

    Welp did a combustion test and a block test, showing signs of a gasket issue fun.

    I'm pretty sure i know what hurt it.

    I got it two weeks ago from an insurance claim in the body shop month, and I got it two weeks ago from an insurance claim.

    It's an ongoing issue with the dealer and insurance, but I have dashcam footage of when the truck was in the shop.

    They were beating on the truck when it was cold and not letting it warm up before revving the **** out of it multiple times and trying to hot dog it on the road even though it was on the stock tune.

    What the f%#%$#%?

    They are freaking dirtbags!

    Who the hell do they think they are?

    Sorry hearing about crap like that upsets me.

    Hopefully, you can take some legal action against them.

    Sorry to hear this; what a bunch of crap!

    I would first try working with the insurance company and give them a copy of the dashcam footage.

    One way or another, that shop needs to pay for their stupidity.

    That’s a bunch of BS!

    Turn it over to the insurance with the video and let them go after this dealer.

    If that doesn’t work, Lawyer up!

    That shop should pay, and the employee(s) responsible should be fired.

    I’ve been in touch with progressive it’s one of their “trusted” collision shops.

    Not only do I have the vids I sent them of the abuse.

    The truck got driven 60 miles.

    I was trying to ween out all the possible causes of the coolant leaks on the ground before jumping straight to gasket issue I’ll have to post some of the vids if it’ll let me.

    Waiting for the other vids to process, but there's a ton of footage of them abusing it.

    Progressive says they are on my side, so I have to see.

    Yes, that’s abuse, the videos support it.

    In the last clip, the guy all but admitted it and wanted to find a switch to turn it up.

    That's 7 of the 80 videos it captured of it being there and just in 7 vids it's bad and all that pretty much right on startup with no warm-up.
