I got some great customer service from the Sam's Club close to where I live. I even called the manager of the store to express my gratitude.

Glad your son is doing well. The daughter of sports anchor here in Ohio wasn't lucky to survive a similar accident. Her car also struck a tractor-trailer. Daughter of sports anchor dies in car crash

The engine is in good shape. The cSt viscosity @ 100ºC went from 8.9 to 9.9. Just keep the OCI at 7500 miles.

Thanks for sharing!!

I think that's normal for the 3.6 engine. Without a check engine light, the dealership won't do anything about it. You still have to take your van to the dealership to document the cold start moan.

Prayers sent to the victims, and their families.

It makes sense to lease a vehicle if you have a business or if your job requires you to have a new vehicle every 3 years. I suspect the rise in leases is mainly due to high cost of new cars. Some families can't afford to own a new vehicle. So they turn to leasing to be able to afford a vehicle...

According to Experian Automotive 27.6% of financed new vehicles purchases are leases.

While under warranty you should use Mopar MO-744 oil filter. Vehicles with the 3.6 engine have been showing up at Dealerships with DTC Code P06DD. Chrysler is blaming the stuck engine oil pressure control circuit on using incorrect aftermarket oil filters.

Nice report! Keep doing 10k-12k oci with Mobil EP. Once you establish a wear trend, I don't see why you can't go for 15K miles oci.

I think the Mopar OAT Coolant MS-12106 is the same as the Fiat. Mopar uses a different dye. It is purple. My guess is they used the Chrysler OAT coolant. It costs $18 a gallon. Your warranty will stay intact if the dealership used the MS-12106.

I purchased some fat free sour cream from Kroger. My wife noticed that one of the ingredients was propylene glycol. I wish I saw that before eating it. I am going to stick to organic sour cream from now on.

The reliability of the KIA Forte is below average, But the powertrain warranty is 120 Months / 100,000 Miles.

Congratulations!!

I've used Mobil 1 in the past. I've never had an engine or transmission fail on me while using Mobil products. It's a great oil.
